Hosting - What are autoresponders?

Think of autoresponders like fax on demand - its exactly the same. You fax a special number for more information or some other forms and 30 seconds later you receive the documents through your fax machine - no mailing or waiting days!

Autoresponders have been around for a long time now and should be standard with all hosting packages. Almost all businesses online can benefit by using autoresponders to send extra information about a product or service or special offers.

Autoresponders are created just like email accounts. Its just an email address, but when you send an email to it, you receive an email back with information. You enter the information you want visitors to get when you create the autoresponder.
