MailerPress – Email Marketing, Newsletter, Email Automation & WooCommerce Emails

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 88% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

At the current install trend, crossing 2K+ in roughly 929 days.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   Started to use the Pro version of this plugin only 2 days ago, and need to say: it’s a joy to work with! Quick to set up, breeze to connect with SMTP2GO, easy to build templates, automations, etc. Came from the Fluent community, but things were getting just too much overkill for me. It feels like a boost of fresh air now I’m using Mailerpress. Very promising, keep up the good work!

   MailerPress v2 puts email tools right in your WordPress site so you don’t need other 3rd party apps. If you’re familiar to wordpress it’s super easy to use and makes nice-looking emails fast. This is perfect for site owners, freelancers, small businesses, and small teams. What MailerPress does as a WordPress plugin is, that it helps you make and send email campaigns fast. You can drag and drop blocks to build emails, pull in posts or products from your live site, manage lots of contacts, schedule emails, and connect to email sending services like SendGrid or use your own SMTP. It also copies your site’s colors so emails match your brand identity. Whats good: All-in-one in: Do everything from your dashboard — no hopping between WordPress and 3rd party tools. Easy editor + support for MJML: Drag-and-drop blocks and one-click template import make emails looks good, quickly. Pull live site content: You can directly add posts, products, or other items from your site right into your emails. Matches your site’s brand identity: It’ll use site’s colors and fonts automatically. Lots of sending options: Works with services like Brevo, SendGrid, Mailgun, SES, or your SMTP. Unlimited contacts and lists: Add as many people as you want. Saves money: No need for pricey third-party services. Works for many users: They have plans for one site, three sites, or unlimited sites as well. Cons No built-in mailer: You obviously need a delivery service or SMTP for best results. Some features need paid version: Advanced option are in the paid plan. Some learning for advanced stuff: Basic use is easy, but fancy targeting or reports will take some time to learn. My take is, that I’m really happy with MailerPress. It makes my email work simple and keeps everything in WordPress. So if you want easy to use email marketing plugin that match’ll your site branding and don’t want extra costs, this will be a great pick.

   MailerPress is an excellent solution for all email marketing needs. It is well designed and offers all the necessary features (some of them require the Pro version). With automation introduced in version 2.0, this is not only a newsletter tool but a marketing automation platform as well.

   Once you get your head around it, spend some time testing. It really is a great tool to be intergrated into your site. Those of us who are growing and looking to keep small manageable lists this is perfect. The automation setup is great, for drip feeding emails. Its only early days and I’m sure its only going to improve. The drag drop email setup is perfect. I’m excited to get my teeth into this product. Hopefully as community we can help the product along, cause it has legs, for small to medium size lists.

   I’ve owned licenses for Noptin, Mailster, Newsletter, FluentCRM, and Jetpack CRM at various points. Most are collecting dust in my account. So when I say MailerPress is different, I’m saying it after burning money on plenty of alternatives and using MailerPress for about 6 straight months on a few client and my own personal sites. Not everyone recognizes the importance of flexibility in writing emails and newsletters – and that’s the first thing MailerPress offers. On Block Editor side Emails inherit theme.json colors and typography automatically, so my brand stays consistent without copying hex codes around. Setup wizard took under 3 minutes. SMTP through Emailit is configured in the same flow. It’s not perfect. But I am betting it is better than anything you can get for WordPress-native email marketing right now.
