Creating News Letter in Asp.NET

Question

Hi,

Do you guys know how to write newsletter subscription in asp.net ? Is there any practice for that or we simply should use a standard way to build newsletter subscription like a table and saving e-mails into this table. When admin clicks send button of an e-mail and all the recipients get the e-mail.

Thanks.

Answer 1

There are no fast hard rules. It all depends on what features your business requires.

I'm not sure about abroad, but in the US it's required by law (Can SPAM 2003) to give the user an unsubscribe feature.

By saving the emails in a database, you can easily automate the unsubscribe feature.

There's an ASP.Net Newsletter project on Codeplex. You might want to have a look at what they do for inspiration, or perhaps just use that project.
