As an email marketer, keeping a good rapport with customers is essential in maintaining great campaigns. Perhaps more importantly, making certain that your emails are well received by Internet Service Provider (ISPs) and other email receivers can play a huge role in your overall sending reputation.
In order to leave a good impression with gatekeepers such as (ISPs), double check your lists for valid email addresses and make sure your audience is comprised of people who have agreed to sign up for your newsletters. This will ultimately reduce your complaint rate, eliminate red flags, and decrease your chances of being labeled a spammer.
Another smart tip in maintaining a positive sending reputation is by using one IP address. Spammers often change their IP addresses to avoid being tracked down. By keeping your IP address consistent you are less likely to attract your provider’s attention to your messages.
If you use iContact as your primary email marketing service, we have active relationships with all of the major Internet Service Providers. If there is ever a case you believe your email campaigns have been flagged, you can contact Customer Service and they can help you sort out the issue.
