Setup a selfhosted newsletter using listmonk | 4rkal's blog
4rkal.com
Listmonk is an amazing feature packed selfhosted email newsletter manager. It offers loads of features like analytics (clicks, opens, bounces), templates, public subscription pages, importing subscribers and much more!

I have been trying to setup my own newsletter for ages.

All of the platforms that I researched asked for stupid amounts of money for the services they where offering.

20$/month for 500 subscribers is not fair pricing mailchimp.

So I looked around the web for selfhosted solutions. Finally I found Listmonk, it’s a selfhosted newsletter and mailing list manager, written in go and is extremely performant.

So I wrote an article on how to set that up!

I hope this helps some fellow selfhosters!

    One thing to address is that if you’re sending lots of emails you start to raise concerns about being a spammer. Especially if somebody forgets they signed up for your newsletter and clicks “report as spam”. It can be a quick way to get blocked from your mail provider since they can themselves become blocked and they’d rather ban you than deal with that hassle. Just be sure whoever you’re sending mail through is okay with you sending “bulk” mail.
