BIGLIST Information

What We Do

BIGLIST maintains a database of "subscribers" to your electronic mailing list. Your customers subscribe to your list by signing up on a form that we can provide for your website. If you don't have a website, we can provide you with a sign-up site. To reach your subscribers, you simply send a single message to your list, and this message is almost instantly broadcast to all members of the list.

Types of BigLists

  • One to Many (also called "announcement" or "newsletter" lists). One message is sent immediately from a single source to all subscribers on the list. Messages may be shareholder reports, product upgrade notifications, special sales, etc.
  • Many to Many (also called "discussion" lists). Any subscriber to a list can send a message to all other subscribers on the list. For example, a committee can discuss committee business or a technology group can help each other with their programming questions.

BigList Names and Addresses

  • BIGLIST Standard Service. You choose the list name, and the address is "@your_co.biglist.com". For example, Company ABC might have sales@ABC.biglist.com or updates@ABC.biglist.com .
  • BIGLIST Virtual Domain Service. Create a list that looks like it's on your system! You choose the list name, and the address is "@lists.yourdomain.com" . For example Company ABC could now have their lists named shareholders@lists.ABC.com and help@lists.ABC.com .

BIGLIST Features

  • Virtual domain name service - we use your domain name so that it looks like you're running the show. You choose the list name, and the address is "@lists.your_domain.com". For example, Company ABC could have lists named shareholders@lists.ABC.com and help@lists.ABC.com .
  • Flat-rate pricing to simplify your budgeting - the cost of our service depends only on the total number of subscribers on all of your lists, regardless of how many lists you have - 1 or 100! That way, your per-subscriber cost goes down as you add subscribers and as you add lists.
  • *Unlimited e-mails - you can send as many e-mail messages as you want, as frequently as you want.
  • Absolute privacy - no one can see who is on your lists, not even the subscribers. The lists are yours; we do not sell them. It's in our contract.
  • Friendly and responsive customer service - e-mail list administration is all we do, and we do it well.
  • Easy-to-use web interface for subscribing to the lists and unsubscribing from the lists.
  • Easy-to-use web interface for configuration of your lists.
  • Searchable web archives - we store copies of all messages sent to your list and you can reference them at any time.
  • Digest version of your lists at no extra charge.

*Current maximum bandwith per subscriber is 750 kilobytes per month for up to 10,000 subscribers, adjusting to 450 kilobytes for up to 100,000 subscribers.

What BIGLIST Doesn't Do

We do NOT spam, and we do not host lists that spam. Also, we understand how important your list is. We will not sell it, or disclose your subscribers to anyone, including the subscribers themselves. We make sure our lists reflect the professionalism of your organization. Therefore, we will not place any ads on the messages posted to your list, including our ads and third party ads. Of course, you are free to place your own ads or sell ad space on your messages.
