Our review

ConvertKit is built for creators: bloggers, YouTubers, and course sellers. Email, forms, and automation are straightforward without the bloat of enterprise tools. Free tier goes up to a certain number of subscribers. Landing pages and automation are included. It is less advanced than ActiveCampaign but easier to learn. Very popular with bloggers and content creators.

We recommend ConvertKit when you are a creator and want simple, effective email and automation. For all-in-one SMB marketing, Mailchimp has more. For advanced CRM and sales, ActiveCampaign is stronger.
