Elements can be dragged and dropped any where within the email

Email Dimensions

3 Width options(600px, 700px, 800px) are provided(that resemble industry standards). Rich text emails can be sent with full width email

Minimum width is 420px and Maximum width is 900px. 10px scale is used. So, 420px, 430px, 440px......880px, 890px and 900px are available options. Multiple options are a drawback for users. To change width you have to skim through all of them. If you want a 800px width and you are default is at 600px, then you have to go through 610px, 620px ....., 790px and then reach 800px. Multiple clicks are frustating.

Frequently asked questions

No, Stripo is an email marketing platform integrated with various email service providers. However, it does not cover all existing ESPs.

You can design an email on Stripo and send it via the email service providers integrated with the platform. To send mass emails, prefer using Stripo alternatives like Mailmodo for a better inbox placement rate and higher deliverability rate.

Stripo is used for designing effective email templates that engage. However, high spam complaints often redirect users to Stripo alternatives like Mailmodo. Mailmodo offers domain warmup and expert consultations with deliverability experts to increase conversions via email.

Mailchimp costs $0 for 2,000 contacts and 10,000 emails/month with ads. To overcome these limitations, you must buy the paid plan starting at $9.99/month. Mailchimp pricing for nonprofits is no respite either. Mailchimp competitors like Mailmodo, on the other hand, offer full-stack email marketing solutions for a more affordable price. If you're a Mailchimp user, consider making the switch today to send interactive emails to your audience. Mailmodo is the best Mailchimp alternative.

Mailchimp has been around for 20+ years and is very customer-driven. However, according to Mailchimp reviews, their emails keep going to spam despite your domain being authenticated, which makes the platform seem unreliable. The Mailchimp alternatives considered reliable are ESPs like Mailmodo with high domain reputation and low spam rates.

According to the Email Deliverability Report 2022, Mailchimp has an 81% inbox placement rate and a 14% spam rate. The spam rate is high enough to cause low email deliverability.

You can avoid emails going to spam with Mailchimp and achieve better email deliverability with competitors to Mailchimp like Mailmodo, which offers dedicated servers, consultation, and help with your domain warm-up.
