Your Email Deliverability Problem Is Solved

by jon

Having problems with your transactional email deliverability?  Is your email just dropping into people’s spam folders?  Well, you could spend a lot of time researching the topic, configuring your DNS properly, setting up your mail servers, etc or you could just try SendGrid.  If you haven’t heard of SendGrid, they’re a company here to solve your email woes.  Simply outsource your transactional email to them and don’t worry about it again.  They offer a lot of integration options including SMTP, REST, and a few others.  You’ll be able to get your account setup and start sending emails in no time (only took me a few minutes).  They also offer a lot of other interesting tools including analytics and easy ways to hook email into your application (have your users send an email, and process that email super simply on your server).  This is similar to the functionality we setup for IntenseDebate‘s Reply-By-Email feature – only this will take you a lot less time to setup.

If you use this link you can also get 25% off the regular price.  So check them out and give SendGrid a try.
