Q: Hi!

Would like to understand more before buying it. A bit confused here on the features.

if i buy for example the top plan: 7 codes
It says it has a 50.000 subscribers and unlimited feeds.
Does this mean it will send the emails to up to 50.000 followers no matter how often in the month and how many feeds i have? And they will all be sent thru your server but with my domain email? is that correct?

Another question... if i understood right it will send emails based on news on feeds, like when i publish a post and people subscribe to that category/tag/ they receive it.

Does it have the option of sending other emails regardless of the feed update? Like if i want to send an email with a content that is not on a wordpress post or feed, for instance?

And can i easily translate all to my language? like with poedit or other means?

Thank you! I have mailchimp now and trying to understand it.

A: Thank you Mirela for your question!

So first of all, yes, we only send out messages if you actually posted new content on your site(s).

You're right, the emails will be sent through our servers. However, as part of the Super-cool plan (which you'll be on), you can brand them to your liking (e.g. upload your logo). We're still sending the emails from our domain. The reason for that is mainly a high deliverability (see https://follow.it/docs/publishers/introduction/why-is-follow-it-s-sender-reputation-so-good), however we are also looking into enabling you to send from your domain (see our this card https://trello.com/c/SOR5Di8R/37-custom-domain on our Roadmap). Note that the emails today already show you in the FROM-field of the emails. So it already feels very much like the emails are coming from you.

And yes, your understanding is correct that we take the content from your RSS feed(s) and send that. We're also looking into enabling you to send content independently from your feeds. Up to now we focused on the fully automatic solution. For now, you can always export your followers' emails (it's easy) and send them a separate email via another tool. But as mentioned, we're looking into enabling this as well.

Regarding languages: we already have it translated into German, Spanish, Portuguese, Turkish, and Serbian. Bulgarian is under way. Which language do you need? If you let us know (either here, or at "help (at) follow (dot) it") we may speed it up.

I hope that clarifies your points. If you have any other questions, please shoot!
