There is no longer free email for new partners, and I think it won't be long until they start charging their free partners. Looks like it's time for BigMailBox.com, Everyone.net is crazy now. They charge like $20/month for support, and there prices are by member, and are outrageous!

I'm thinking maybe it's time to move to BMB and pay there small monthly fee to remove the ads. Plus, Everyone wants to allot you 600MB of space for your members that's crazy! Hell if I'll pay $$10/month and only be allowed 100 members.

Anyone with any information on if Everyone.net is going to charge their current free partner sites?

Thanks,

This was mentioned before here, though I don't use it myself, nor know anyone who does use it for you to contact...

Worth a lookie: http://www.netmongol.com

On other boards there has been talk of death for them. They have really not done anything right. Everything of theirs was based on banner advertising. Their ad sales program was real great, until their prices crashed(2.50 CPM to .05 CPM) Then they tried their popup program which is no good.

I find it amusing how everytime a free service on the net pulls the plug and starts charging, everyone starts slamming them and talking about how they are going to go under. The internet now requires businesses to make $$$ to stay afloat and I am all for it.

With ad revenues where they are these days, the question is not why they did this, but why they didn't do it sooner.

It wasent that it was they went to paid. I had the feeling that they were closing down when I saw their CPM rates. Then they promised a new and better CPM program, not really promise but I think you get the meaning, and that was a bust. Lets see how they turn out.

When the net started there was this attitude that it should be free to all and no $ should keep anyone from the net and all it has to offer ......that was then this is now it would have been nice if it had worked that way

The net is still free, libarys have free internet access. Schools have free internet access. If you want to talk about money keeping people away, look at the prices of computers, they are getting lower, but I think that would keep more people away.

That's because they often do go under. Often, charging is a last ditch attempt to stay alive. It's usually not a well-planed out strategy. As such, it usually/often fails because it's not done as part of a longterm business plan, but rather out of sheer desperation.

how about oemmail.com
any experience about their services?

Hello

I have used everyone.net mail on about 15 websites for myself and my customers.

I don't know what can I do if they decide to ask for money. I think I will give up and put free mail service away.

It will not go to another service sucha as oemmail etc because they may ask for the same later.

But most important question is that what can we do with mailbox owners?


Can I ask people here, what will they do with their email box owners if they decide to remove this service from their websites?

On the matter of free branded email,

I've recently found this one:
http://www.bigmailbox.com


Anyone know of this one???

BMB is like one of the largest email thingies. i use them for my site...long sign up, popups, and ad banners are pretty annoying though

I am with him, the popups drive me insane.

Hello

I am planning to use oemmail.com free email on one of my websites.

Anyone tested them?

They give you %50 of advertisement space and POP3 access.

Regards,
Mac

I completely agree. I'm thinking of paying BMB to remove ads, as long as their prices aren't as outrageous as Everyone.net's. I use them to offer email for 2 addresses, @WebmastersEmail.com and @FREEePages.com.

OemMail looks damn good! I'm going to try them, first I'm seeing if they can switch you over from BMB or Everyone.net without losing your emails and members.

Dear Yeswebmaster

Stop!

I changed my mind after testing OEMMail. It's only a crowd of advertisements.

If you want, try to signup for an account and test it at below address and you will change your mind too.

http://themail.tehranyek.com

All major features will be activated if you pay $19.95 per year (for only one account !!!).

The only positive point is that it is hosted on your domain name ie. themail.yoursite.com

But don't be happy. Users must see at least to full page advertisements before they can access their mail box :D

Best Regards,
Mac

OEMMail spams me every time I register a new domain. (dotster)
