How To Send Automatic Newsletter on Aweber using RSS Feed

You can definitely set up automatic newsletters in Aweber using RSS feeds to notify subscribers about your latest content. Here's a breakdown of the steps involved:

1. Create a new campaign:

• Log in to your Aweber account and navigate to the "Campaigns" section.
• Click on "Create a Campaign" to begin setting up your automated newsletter.

2. Choose a template (optional):

• Aweber offers pre-made campaign templates designed specifically to work with RSS feeds. You can choose the "Blog Newsletter" or "YouTube Newsletter" template to get started quickly. These templates already have elements in place to showcase content from your RSS feed.
• Alternatively, you can create a custom template from scratch if you prefer more design control over your newsletter.

3. Set up the trigger:

• This is where you define what initiates the sending of your newsletter. In this case, you want it to be automatic, so select "Check Feed" as the trigger.

4. Add your RSS feed URL:

• In the "Feed URL" field, paste the link to your website's RSS feed. If you're unsure where to find it, most blogging platforms and website builders have an RSS feed option in their settings. You can also use feed management services like Feedburner to create a feed for your website.

5. Set the sending frequency:

• Determine how often you want your newsletter to be sent out. Aweber allows you to choose from various options like daily, weekly, or whenever a new item is added to your feed.

6. Design your email content (using the feed element):

• Now comes the customization part. Drag and drop email content elements like text, images, and buttons into the email editor.
• Most importantly, use the "Feed" element to pull in content from your RSS feed. Aweber will automatically populate this section with the latest headlines, summaries, or excerpts from your blog posts or other content based on your feed.
• You can further personalize the email by adding a subject line with subscriber names (using merge tags) and a call to action button that directs them to your website to read the full content.

7. Preview and activate:

• Once you're happy with the design and content of your email, send a test email to yourself to preview how it will look for subscribers.
• After you're satisfied, activate the campaign, and Aweber will automatically send out newsletters to your subscribers whenever new content is published on your website based on the RSS feed.
