Description

Threadloom Newsletter lets you easily send your communities best content direct to subscribers' inboxes.

It uses machine learning to select your best content. This produces newsletters with higher click rates, and saves you time. You can send newsletters automatically, or create a review panel to curate them with Curation Assistant.

You can get started in minutes with automated curation. Send up to 25,000 emails per month for free, which includes everything you need for a successful newsletter: SendGrid email delivery, Kickbox email address verification, Curation Assistant, XenForo list synchronization, Acid-tested templates, and reporting. After your first 25,000 emails per month, pricing for additional emails is $0.20 per 1,000 emails.

Threadloom Newsletter also now offers custom scheduling to find the perfect fit for your community's needs. FordRaptorForum.com grew daily traffic by more than 10% with this feature (you can read the case study here).

When you pair Threadloom Newsletter with List Builder (included with Newsletter), you create an opportunity to capture drive-by traffic.Be sure to check out Threadloom’s List Builder here.

  • Download and install the plug-in.
  • Wait for your forum to be indexed (~500K posts/hr).
  • Update your DNS records.
  • Upload your logo.


Questions and answers
Q: How effective is email?​
A: Email is the most cost-effective user acquisition channel, next to organic search. On average, our customers realize CPCs of ~$0.0025. For many top communities, email is the second biggest driver of traffic to the site behind organic search.​

Q: How is Threadloom Newsletter different from other email newsletter options?​
A: Threadloom uses machine learning to select the best content for your email newsletters. This produces higher click rates and more traffic to your forum. Threadloom is also fully integrated with XenForo, and automatically keeps your lists in sync. Finally, it includes everything you need to effectively send email newsletters, regardless of how big or small your forum is.​

Q: Do I have to enter a credit card to get started?​
A: No. However, if you have a large forum, we recommend entering a credit card to avoid interruptions in reaching your community. *New as of April 2019*

Q: Is there a limit on how many contacts / how large of a forum Threadloom Newsletter supports?​
A: No. Threadloom Newsletter has individual forums sending over 250,000 a day, and sends out millions of emails every week.

Q: Do I have to use Threadloom Search to participate in Threadloom Newsletter?​
A: No. But good news! Threadloom Search customers who also use Threadloom Newsletter will get the option of personalized email newsletters for their members.​

A: No. We will never sell or share your data.​

Hi @nw-fotografie - yes, you definitely can. You can restrict which members receive your Newsletter based on activity level, user group, domain name, and individual email address.

This is the "free" version we're seeing here on the org, for that it must be "free" so my primary question is, upon signing up for the service on your site does the free version grant the ability to send a certain number of mails for free? 100% Free?

Or is it still a required payment of $10 per month for upwards of 10k emails to be processed?

I need to know the answer to this in order to ensure the rules are being followed more so #16(c) on said page for this modification release. If there is no option to send certain set # for free we'll need to remove the modification OR you can append its settings and/or the type of account created to allow a low # of free mails to be sent and then this would be allowed.

Simply post back here or pm me for clarification on this, I'll edit this post and any others accordingly once I have a reply .

Edit: I've unapproved this post to hide it, the answer I sought was in the description, oversight on my part:
Weekly newsletters are free up to 500 contacts

Over the past 7 years, Threadloom has provided enterprise-grade Search and Newsletter services to over 2,000 forums. Threadloom Search was the first forum search engine with threaded results, image search, spell correction, and more, resulting in over 40% click-through rates. Threadloom Newsletter was the first service to automate content curation, sender verification, spam trap navigation, GDPR management, and more.

Since acquiring Threadloom last year, our parent company VerticalScope has fully supported our commitment to the forum community. During this time, our team has maintained Threadloom services while contributing to new efforts. Over time, however, it’s become clear that we will soon be unable to deliver the quality of service and innovation we initially committed to. As a result, the Threadloom team has made the difficult decision to retire our services.

On November 2, 2022, we will turn down all Threadloom services, including Search, Newsletter, List Builder, Insights, Primary Login, and Primary Explorer, and delete all customer data within 30 days of this date. We recommend that customers backup their site and database prior to uninstalling our add-ons, in order to mitigate any potential data loss. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to drop us a line.

On behalf of the entire team, thank you for your support. It has been a privilege to serve and help grow your communities.
