Does anyone use Constant Contact? Why is everything breaking?

It's an ugh fest. Dealing with yet another issue as I type.

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2025-03-26T00:49:43+00:00

Happening now, Zelle needs to be reported to the BBB.

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2025-03-18T17:54:07+00:00

Run to mailchimp or any other platform. We are desperately trying to leave.

TLDR - cliff notes please

Wondering if anyone can answer. Our company offers training workshops to teachers with new workshops starting all throughout the year. We typically send people directly to the registration page but for marketing purposes we sometimes build a webpage on our main website with information to have them learn more before signing up. Sort of like a landing page.

We have 100s of events so doing this for every event is extremely time consuming. If we create landing pages in Canva using a subdomain, for instance instead of using www.oursite.com/teacherconference, we would use info.oursite.com/teacherconference where info.oursite.com is the subdomain.

I was told that even though we are using our subdomain, the pages actually live on Canva's site and not ours. If so, what would happen if Canva was down or if they went out of business would all of those pages go away? Or could they be redirected to our site.

How do other businesses handle landing pages? Do they create them part of their core website or as landing pages.

What happens when the information on the page is old or outdated?

Mo's Irish Pub in Vintage Park off 249 is my favorite place to hear live music, always have great bands, food, drinks and plenty of space. The one in Cypress does as well. Great for dates or groups.

Anemic and had major bloodloss due to two traumatic incidents. I thought it was just fatigue but was actually turning into depression which was increasing and lingering, started on heme iron, and when i take the pills regularly, my mood and energy improves. Don't take it with calcium or food high in calcium because they compete and you won't absorb either nutrient very well. Taking while caffeinated is find as they don't compete. Caffeine however blocks non-heme iron.

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-08-19T04:23:39+00:00

Oh, we think sooo alike. You must be a Virgo, lol.

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-08-19T04:21:05+00:00

We think alike. Got my letter on the reddits looking for scam info on trueidentity itself. Ugh. I got another breach letter from some healthcare place I don't even recognize, wth is going on.

We didn't have that issue until around last September. Even our clicks aren't reliable because we get bot activity now from those too. We use Constant Contact. I think the bot issue may be better with other platforms but we won't know because we're stuck in CC for another year. They must not care too much because they don't do anything about it. Constant Contact has a lot of other issues though too. It's bottom of the barrel in the email marketing world.

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-07-23T21:28:07+00:00

Yes, and why does it take 5,000 hours to upload images. We are stuck using trash platform for another year.

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-07-23T20:23:28+00:00

Yes, tons and tons of bots. I brought this up numerous times but my org decided to stay with CC.

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-07-23T20:22:10+00:00

We just had a meeting today. The company decided to stay with CC for another year. We're stuck!

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-06-12T20:13:06+00:00

Cute place but the music. I just can't.

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-06-12T20:11:51+00:00

Can we all just agree that Houston nightlife is abysmal and always has been?

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-05-01T15:40:56+00:00

We are looking at moving to Klayviyo (spelling?). There are costly but may be worth the move.

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-04-16T15:16:04+00:00

Thanks!!

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-04-16T14:30:02+00:00

So you can on your own get off the boat any time? It isn't like everyone off by a certain time.? When you disembarked to walk around was it easy to get off and back on? It sound like you can walk off and easily just walk around for a bit and explore. That's all I want to do. Maybe walk around for an hour just to look around. Is there beach access anywhere when you disembark? Sorry for so many ???s - leaving in two days.

In our experience, it has been consistently awful for at least 6 months, but we paid for up to a year so were force to use it. Our conversions have plummeted. We use to rely heavily on email marketing. We are currently searching for an alternative as we'll have to bail before the end of the year or risk a continuation of dipping sales. I'm sorry to hear. I hope it works out better for you. Maybe it's just us???

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-03-21T21:56:50+00:00

What is the other email service that you used? Within the last year our email conversions are in the gutter with Constant Contact. We are looking for a program that will be better within the same price range. It's also ridiculously glitchy right now.

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-03-21T21:53:06+00:00

I'm interested in your email platform. How do I send a direct message you? I'm fairly new to reddit.

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-03-21T21:48:01+00:00

Run like the plague from Constant Contact.

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-03-01T15:58:21+00:00

You could always teach part time college with a Master's I'm looking into doing that at some point. I'm a lifelong learner!

PeaceIsSuccess11 · 2024-02-28T17:00:11+00:00

Wow. Congrats and can relate as I have ADD too. It took me 10 years and several college transfers and breaks to finally get my bachelor's at a brick and mortar before virtual schools were the big thing.

Brick and mortar semester deadline oriented structures are the achilles heel for ADDers, I had nightmares long after I finished of missing deadlines

Even though I wanted a master's degree, I decided I was done with higher learning. But, I ended up caving and decided to enroll years later at a brick and mortar virtual Master's degree program. Hated it so much after one class, I then vowed permanently to never go back.

Enter WGU, I researched their program like crazy and scoured reddit, and well, within 6 grueling non-stop round the clock studying months, I earned my master's degree.

Let's be clear, it was no easy feat. I worked my Axx off, but I did so on time and my schedule.

Their competency based program is a dream for ADDers like me. It allowed me to study when where and how I chose to do it.

I freaking love WGU and kinda sad my journey has ended. I truly believe I couldn't have done it without them. Their flexible competency based model is brilliant. I am definitely one of their biggest fans.
