But if yours isn’t at the stage where you can do so, you probably want to find the cheapest way possible to carry out your email blasts. Third-party [SMTP server providers](/content/smtp-as-a-service/smtp-server) are great when you want to send out high volumes of emails at affordable prices. In this article, we’ll take a look at why you should use a provider and what **email pricing** is available. ![reliable smtp server](https://media.mailhop.org/duocircle/images/2019/02/brand-forgery-components.png) ### Why use SMTP server providers? You may think that because you already have an email address, that will be sufficient for your campaigns. But _using your own address is cumbersome, since you have to send each email out one by one_. Plus, your messages will easily get **marked as spam** when they’re not unique. An [SMTP service](/content/smtp-as-a-service/smtp-service) provider takes care of those problems for you. _Not only is it capable of sending a large number of emails out at once, but it can also get you better deliverability_. Their servers are **trusted by domains**, so your sending reputation remains excellent, resulting in successfully delivered emails. ### Use a free SMTP provider If you’d like a free option, consider an [SMTP relay](/content/smtp-as-a-service/smtp-relay) host like [Gmail](https://support.google.com/a/answer/176600?hl=en). They offer 100 free emails per day with their [free SMTP server](/content/smtp-as-a-service/free-smtp-server), which is more than enough for some organizations. _It doesn’t hurt to start with a free SMTP server provider_; you can figure out just how many emails your business needs without having to pay. ![get outbound smtp server](https://media.mailhop.org/duocircle/images/2019/02/display-name-spoofing-protection.png)![buy smtp with paypal](https://media.mailhop.org/duocircle/images/2019/02/domain-name-spoofing-protection-common.png) ### Straightforward email pricing for packages When you look at the [SMTP pricing](/content/smtp-as-a-service/smtp-pricing) for [SMTP relay service](/content/smtp-as-a-service/smtp-relay-service) providers, it should be pretty straightforward. Each package will tell you how many emails you get per month, how much it costs, and sometimes, it’ll also say if it’s on a shared or dedicated IP. ### Get extra protection A major advantage of paying for [SMTP as a service](/content/smtp-as-a-service) is you can get **protection from phishing** and spoofing. These are two serious problems that can drag down your sending reputation. _If your reputation drops, not only will your emails not get delivered properly, but it’ll also be hard to build back up again._ ![outbound smtp relay](https://media.mailhop.org/duocircle/images/2019/02/account-phishing-attack.png) ##### Join the thousands of organizations that use DuoCircle --- Find out how affordable it is for your organization today and be pleasantly surprised.
