WordPress is a very popular content management system, above all for the vast choice of different plugins available. This trend continues when it comes to WordPress subscription plugins for newsletters. The official WordPress website offers over 500 different extensions for adding newsletter functions. In order to simplify the decision-making process, we’ve compiled a selection criteria for the most popular options available:
- Function: Several plugins only integrate registration forms into a WordPress project and have to be combined with separate newsletter software. Other extensions are all-encompassing, allowing you to integrate and manage an e-mail newsletter via the plugin directly.
- Presentation: If the newsletter is supposed to be an optional offer to inform users, then it’s best to avoid installing flashy pop-up newsletters. It’s important to check how the sign-up function can be integrated.
- Compatibility: Regardless of the type of plugin, it is crucial to ensure that it is compatible with your version of WordPress.
- Cost: Plugins fall into different price categories and use varying cost models. Many subscription extensions offer the basics for free but then require payment to unlock all the features.
Below is a collection of popular WordPress newsletter plugins. Some are fully-functioning, independent plugins, while others connect WordPress to an external newsletter service.
