How to build an email list (free FOREVER plans)

Hey alluser, Want to build an email list, but don't have the budget for an email marketing service? There are some email marketing services, like Mailchimp, that let you start a list for free. However, its free plan (up to 500 contacts) comes with a limited feature set. As you grow your subscribers, it gets very expensive compared to any other email marketing tool. If only there were free email list services that offer more features… and allow UNLIMITED subscribers on their free plans. Oh WAIT, there are! 👉 7 Best Mailchimp Alternatives (with better free forever plans) 👈 #1 is best for beginners. #2 has a free plan for up to 100,000 contacts (whereas Mailchimp only offers 500 contacts)  If you're on the fence, read this article to start building an email list RIGHT NOW for free!  Cheers, Syed Balkhi  Founder of WPBeginner P.S.: I know many website owners are reluctant to start using an email list. Here's why I believe every site owner MUST have a list.
