What it does
Sending bulk email straight from a web server can cause trouble, since many hosts are not set up for mail delivery at volume. This add-on hands the sending job to SparkPost, an email delivery service. You keep building and managing your newsletters inside the Newsletter plugin, and the messages are dispatched through the SparkPost API. The setup is meant to be simple and should not call for advanced technical knowledge.
Once connected, you can follow delivery status, opens and clicks in the SparkPost dashboard. SparkPost also provides tools for managing sender reputation, and it supports email authentication standards such as SPF, DKIM and DMARC. That makes this plugin a good fit for anyone already using Newsletter who wants a dedicated delivery service behind it, from a solo site owner to an organization sending larger volumes.
Best for
- WordPress sites already using the Newsletter plugin
- Businesses sending regular newsletters and marketing emails
- Site owners who want a SparkPost account handling delivery
