Can I send newsletters and email campaigns from 4buildsite?
Short answer
- No. 4buildsite does not include sending newsletters or marketing email campaigns to subscriber lists.
- Some templates include a newsletter sign-up block. It is only a visual element and does not send emails.
- What works: the contact form sends email notifications to the owner, and mailboxes on your domain can be created from the platform.
- For newsletters, choose a dedicated email marketing service. It stays an external provider that you set up separately.
What you can and cannot do with email
- You can: receive messages from the contact form by email.
- You can: have mailboxes on your domain, created from the platform.
- You cannot: send campaigns to a subscriber list from the platform.
- You cannot assume a sign-up form on a template collects addresses and uses them. Check what the block does before you publish it.
Practical examples
- Hypothetical example: a shop that wants to send monthly offers picks an email marketing service and keeps the contact form for questions.
Common mistakes
- You assume the newsletter block on a template sends emails.
- You collect addresses without a clear consent mechanism, which requires care under GDPR, whatever the platform.
How 4buildsite helps
- The contact form with email notifications and the blog are included.
- Mailboxes on your domain are created from the platform.
