<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nDo you know how most push notification service providers lure website owners? By making the notification services free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But as that saying goes, “If you’re not paying for the product, you’re the product.<\/em>,” and the same goes with these free services.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStarting with, they put tons of limitations such as the number of notifications you can send on a daily basis. These restrictions don’t allow users to effectively reach and engage with audiences, especially if your business has a large and active user base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the most important one is that most of these free services collect your readers’ data, which is a very shady practice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Data Sellout<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nSome push notification providers sell user data to third parties without your or users’ consent. This creates privacy concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not only that, your users will stop trusting your website and may raise legal issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although service providers sell out data even after claiming complete security, reviewing their data usage policies reduces the chances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Difficulty in Migratio<\/strong>n<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nLet\u2019s say you are not satisfied with the service you are currently using and choose to migrate. But now, your current platform has access to all user databases. They can create complications during migration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most push notification monetisation platforms refuse to share information of current subscribers. This leads to loss of complete subscriber base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And in the end, you have to start from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
