29 Ways to Avoid Sending Spam Email & Improve Your Email Deliverability

你应该什么绝不Do

1. Don't buy or rent email lists.

Yes, you can legally rent and purchase lists of people who have agreed to email communications -- butit's never a good idea.Not only is it a dirty email marketing tactic that goes against the Terms of Service for your email service provider, but these people don't actually know you -- and it's likely they won't even wantyouremails. In other words, there's a good change they'll mark you as spam. Plus, let's be honest ... high quality email addresses are never for sale.

2. Don't scrape sites for email addresses.

抓取电子邮件地址的网站似乎是建立联系列表的快速方法,但这对您的业务不利 - 更不用说在包括美国在内的许多国家 /地区,感谢CAN-SPAM ACT

3. Don't email people who have bounced repeatedly.

强烈的弹跳是无效,封闭或不存在的电子邮件地址的结果,这些电子邮件将永远不会成功发送。跳出率是Internet服务提供商(ISP)用来确定电子邮件发送者声誉的关键因素之一,因此拥有太多的艰苦弹跳会导致它们停止在人们的收件箱中允许您的电子邮件。

((Email deliverability is covered extensively in集线器's free email marketing certification course,因此请检查一下以了解更多信息。)

4.不要在电子邮件或主题行中的任何地方使用所有帽子。

不要对人大喊。不好。在主题行中使用所有帽子可能会引起接收者的注意,但可能不是很好。使用所有帽子确实可以以错误的方式摩擦人们。这很烦人,看起来很垃圾。

实际上,根据Radicati组的研究,超过85%的受访者偏爱所有帽子中的一条全节制主题行。

Instead of using disruptive tactics like all caps to get people's attention, try personalizing your emails, establishing relevancy, and using catchy and delightful language. (阅读此博客文章,介绍如何编写引人注目的电子邮件for more tips.)

5. Don't use exclamation points!!!!!

可以使您的主题行和/或电子邮件看起来不专业和垃圾邮件的另一件事?感叹号 - 尤其是连续一堆。什么时候69% of email recipients仅根据主题行报告电子邮件为垃圾邮件,you'll want to stay away from triggers like this as much as you can.

另外,当您要求标点符号做单词的工作时,它确实可以稀释您的信息。下次您想在电子邮件(或其他任何地方)中使用感叹号时,use this flowchart, "Should I Use an Exclamation Point?", as a gut check.

6. Don't use video, Flash, or JavaScript within your email.

默认情况下,大多数电子邮件客户端不允许能够查看诸如Flash或视频嵌入之类的丰富媒体。取而代之的是,使用视频播放器的图像(带有播放按钮),该图像链接到网站页面上的富媒体。

至于JavaScript和其他动态脚本,即使垃圾邮件过滤器允许您通过电子邮件,大多数电子邮件客户端也无法允许这些脚本运行 - 因此,请避免使用它们。

7. Don't embed forms in your emails.

由于安全风险,在通用电子邮件客户端的电子邮件中不支持表格。相反,放置通话行动按钮or a link toa landing page with a formin the body of your email.

(HubSpot客户:学习如何在HubSpot中的电子邮件中添加呼叫行动按钮这里, and how to create a form for your landing pages in HubSpot这里。)

8. Don't include attachments to your emails.

If you want to send your recipients something like a PDF or a Word document, don't attach the file to the email -- otherwise your email could get blocked byspam filters。相反,将附件上传到您的网站,并使用电子邮件中的文件位置链接到您的电子邮件位置an effective call-to-action button。这将最大程度地减少被垃圾邮件过滤器阻塞的机会and减少电子邮件的负载时间。

(HubSpot用户:集线器's attachment toolin the email editor automatically does this for you. Simply highlight a bit of text or an image and click the attachment icon, and HubSpot will turn that text or image into a link leading to that attachment.)

9.不要使用垃圾邮件触发单词。

避免垃圾邮件过滤器的最简单方法之一是仔细选择您在电子邮件主题行中使用的单词。一个好的经验法则是:如果听起来像是二手车推销员会说的话,那可能是垃圾邮件触发单词。考虑“自由”,“保证,“无义务”等等。(有关更多信息,look at this list of common spam trigger words。)

与其使用这些触发单词,不如说是创造性,有趣且内容丰富 - 而不会付出太多。一些主题行的更好想法include:

  • "Hi [name], [question]?"
  • “你得到了想要的东西吗?”
  • "You are not alone."
  • "Feeling blue? Like puppies?"

10.起草电子邮件时不要使用红色字体。

使用隐形文本,即白色背景上的白色字体也是如此。这些是垃圾邮件发送者使用的常见技巧,因此它是垃圾邮件过滤器的即时危险信号。

实际上,people don't like when marketers use irregular fonts, font sizes, and font colors at all in emails. InRadicati组的同一研究在十大令人反感的电子邮件趋势中,四个围绕字体旋转。超过60%的受访者认为电子邮件营销人员使用不同的字体尺寸,不规则字体和不同的字体颜色是不可接受的Nearly 70% of respondents prefer fonts to be one size.

11.不要忘记使用咒语检查。

根据that Radicati Group study, 80% of all respondents find spelling and grammatical errors the most unacceptable email offense. But spelling mistakes aren't just unprofessional -- they're actually a spam trigger, too.

小拼写错误很容易通过 - 尤其是当您自我编辑时。阅读这篇文章以学习最常见的拼写和语法错误因此,您再也不会成为他们。

12. Don't jam pack your email copy with keywords.

Keyword-stuffing your emails means shoving as many keywords into your emails as you can. There's a reason Google give a lower rank to webpages that are stuffed with keywords -- and that's because it's harmful to user experience. No one wants to read content that's optimized for a robot.

To make it more likely folks will open your emails and not mark them as spam, write your emails for humans, not robots. Copywriting that makes people want to take action is both simple and compelling. To make your writing sound more personable and relatable, use casual language, colloquial expressions, and even personal anecdotes.

I love the example below from旋转风格周期((fromour roundup of 12 great email marketing examples).The copy is beautiful in its simplicity. It's friendly, yet sincere -- especially with the following lines:

  • "We know you are busy and would hate to see you miss out"
  • “请告诉我们,如果我们可以以任何可能的方式提供帮助”
  • "Feel free to give us a call - we want to help :)"

加,they provided me with the exact details I needed to know -- a reminder of what I'd signed up for and when, the expiration date, and a phone number to reach them. Check it out:

13.不要使用大量的图像或巨大图像。

Using one large image as your entire email, or too many images in general, tends to end up in recipients' spam folders.

您还需要使图像文件大小尽可能小,而不会失去其视觉完整性以防止长时间的电子邮件加载时间。(如果您是HubSpot用户,则电子邮件工具会在电子邮件中自动压缩图像,以使其加载速度更快。对于非Hubspot用户,一些好的图像压缩工具包括Compressor.io,Compressjpeg.com, andjpegmini.com。)

更不用说,Microsoft Outlook无法识别背景图像,因此您可能需要避免使用这些图像并使用背景颜色。

你什么应该Do

14. Keep your email lists current and clean.

即使您的清单完全建立在有效的选择上,如果您不这样练习正确的电子邮件卫生。Why? Because internet service providers (ISPs) base complaint rates onactive订户,而不是总订户。

此外,过期的电子邮件地址可以变成SPAM traps,这意味着即使您以合法的方式获得了电子邮件,几年从未参与的废弃地址也可能已经变成了垃圾邮件陷阱。即使只击中一个垃圾邮件陷阱也会引起可交付性问题。

Expired email addresses can also turn into unknown users (bounces). If you hit unknown accounts以高于5%的速度, then ISPs are going to see you as someone who has really bad email hygiene. The result? They'll make it harder for your emails to reach people's inboxes, and your overall sender reputation will definitely drop -- leading to even more trouble reaching people's inboxes.

By keeping your email lists current and clean, you'll decrease the likelihood people will flag your emails as spam. You can identify inactive subscribers and expired email addresses with metrics such as opens, clicks, or website activity.

15. See if you can reengage inactive or infrequently active subscribers.

“ Graymail”是指技术选择接收的电子邮件,但不要真的想, leading them to become less active or inactive altogether. Although it's not considered spam, sending graymail is problematic because it can hurt the deliverability of your email overall. Tipped off by low engagement rates, ISPs and inbox providers may deliver email from known-graymail senders straight to recipients' "junk" folders -- so the email technically gets sent (and can even appear to have been delivered), but it's not necessarily seen.

跟踪您的不活动和不经常活跃的订户,并develop re-engagement campaignsfor contacts who have stopped engaging with your messages. For example, you could set conditions such as the length of time since their last form submission, website visit, or email click, triggering the email when it's been a while since a contact last engaged with you.

In your workflow, you might try sending them an exclusive offer or coupon to get them excited about your company again. Or, you might ask them for feedback by sending out a quick survey to see what they would like to see in your emails. (Read this blog post for more ideasfor launching an effective email re-engagement campaign.)

16.请使用双重选择。

Double Optin表示,在有人订阅您的电子邮件列表后,您向他们发送带有确认链接的后续电子邮件,以确保他们实际上想从您那里接收电子邮件通信。

必须确认他们希望从贵公司发送电子邮件通信的用户将充分阅读并与您从您的业务收到的电子邮件进行互动。raybet电子竞技当您使用Double Opting-In加入时,您的电子邮件列表将更加合格,您的订阅者更加参与。(HubSpot客户:学习如何在HubSpot中设置双重选择这里。)

17. Ask your subscribers to add you to their address book.

Spam filters are more aggressive than ever -- so much so that sometimes, the emails people value and want to read仍然最终放在他们的垃圾邮件盒中。

但是,大多数垃圾邮件过滤器都可以通过将其电子邮件地址添加到电子邮件的地址簿中来使您成为发件人。当订阅者将您添加到他们的地址簿中时,垃圾邮件过滤器将退缩。

18. You must include a clear unsubscribe link and a physical mailing address in your email footer.

让人们退订对于清单卫生很重要,因为任何收到您的电子邮件的人都应该to receive them -- otherwise, you're just spamming them. But did you know that it's非法的您的接收者没有办法在包括美国在内的许多国家轻松取消订阅?

In your marketing emails, you must include a way for folks to unsubscribe from your email list, either by simply sending a reply email or by clicking no more than one level deep to reach a page from which they can unsubscribe. Which method you choose is entirely up to you, as long as the information is clear and easy to locate.

The most common place for these unsubscribe CTAs is in the footer of your email, so users tend to know to look for it there -- which makes for a better user experience. Here's an example from one of HubSpot's emails:

unsubscribe-1.png

In addition to the unsubscribe link, include a link to update subscriber preferences, which you can also see in the example above. That way, recipients can unsubscribe from just one type of email instead of all of them.

19.尊重您的取消订阅并将其从邮件列表中删除。

如果有人取消订阅,则必须从您的电子邮件列表中删除。这是法律。这应该不用说。Check out this list of effective unsubscribe pagesto make the unsubscribe process a little more delightful for recipients.

这是哪里电子邮件营销软件雷竞技苹果下载官方版that integrates seamlessly with your CRM comes in handy -- because any unsubscribes are immediately processed and recorded in both the contact record and within the email software. (But if you're removing unsubscribed addresses from your list manually, make it a top priority to process that request.)

20. Use a familiar sender name.

因为人们被垃圾邮件淹没了,所以他们不愿意打开陌生发件人的电子邮件。确保收件人可以使用您的品牌名称在发件人中识别您。

Better yet, send the email from a real person. Recipients are typically more likely to trust a personalized sender name and email address than a generic one. At HubSpotwe found that从“ Maggie Georgieva,Hubspot”发送的电子邮件在Open方面表现更好and比电子邮件发送从“中心点击率pot." (HubSpot customers: Learn how to personalize the "From" name and email address这里。)

21.在“ TO:”字段中包括收件人的名字。

这样,垃圾邮件过滤器就知道您确实知道您的收件人。加,personalizing your emailsaround your contacts can also be vital to their engagement with your content.

22. Offer recipients both an HTML and a plain text version of your emails.

Plain text emails are simply emails void of any formatting, while HTML (HyperText Markup Language) emails use formatting that let you设计更多美丽的电子邮件with attractive visual components. By offering both a plain textandHTML版本的单个电子邮件,您不仅表示您与ISP的合法性,而且还使您的电子邮件更友好地友好。

Most email marketing tools will let you easily create plain-text versions within their email editor, so take those five extra minutes to create and optimize the plain-text version of your email. (HubSpot customers: Learn how to create a plain-text email in HubSpot这里。)

另外,请确保正确编码HTML版本:如果您的HTML中的标签损坏,则电子邮件提供商和用户可能将其标记为垃圾邮件。

23. Allow people to view your email in a web browser.

即使采取了每一步以确保正确的电子邮件设计,电子邮件客户端也可以仍然display an email poorly. Include a link in every email to view the email as a web page. (HubSpot customers: Learn how to do this easily in HubSpot这里。)

24. Include alt text in your email images.

Many email clients block images默认情况下。这意味着,当有人打开你r email, the images won't load unless they click a button to show them or change their default settings.将Alt文本添加到您的图像helps recipients understand your message even if they can't see the images.

如果您将图像用作呼吁行动,这尤其糟糕。没有Alt文本,“关闭”图像将看起来像这样:

当您将ALT文本添加到图像中时,收件人仍然会知道在哪里单击以完成操作:

这就是Alt-Text的图像的样子。

You can either edit the alt text in your email tool's rich text editor (just right-click the image and edit away), or you can manually enter it in the HTML editor of your email tool like this:

25. Keep your emails short and sweet.

对于垃圾邮件过滤器来说,副本太多是另一个危险信号。不仅如此,人们通常更喜欢简洁的电子邮件。每个人都很忙,他们的收件箱已经满了,所以为什么会使情况变得更糟?

保持简短和甜蜜的最佳方法之一就是像人类一样写作。像您在现实生活中与某人交谈的方式写您的电子邮件会使它感觉更加平易近人和相关。((阅读此博客文章,介绍如何编写引人注目的电子邮件for more tips.)

If you do have to write a lengthier email, then break it up into multiple paragraphs. Giving visual breaks and composing the email with a clear introduction, middle, and conclusion will make it much easier on your reader.

26.在发送电子邮件之前测试您的电子邮件。

这些天来,电子邮件营销人员在创建电子邮件时必须考虑很多电子邮件客户。最重要的是,我们也必须考虑移动用户 - 毕竟53%的人read email on their mobile devices.

事实证明each of these clients displays emails differently。While it may be time-consuming to test out your emails forall电子邮件客户端,您将需要测试他们最多使用的客户。根据Litmus' research of 1.06 billion email opens,排名前五的电子邮件客户端是:

  1. 苹果iPhone的邮件应用程序((28% ofusers)
  2. Gmail((16% of users)
  3. Apple iPad's Mail app((11% ofusers)
  4. Google Android's Mail app(9%users)
  5. 外表(9%users)

If your email marketing tool lets you, go ahead and preview what your email looks like in different email clients and devices that are popular with your audience. (HubSpot customers: Use ourPreview in other inboxesfeature to send a test email and see how the design of your email looks in each email client.)

You should also send out a test version of your email before you send out the real deal to ensure it's working properly. (HubSpot customers: Learn how to test your emails这里。)

27.获得第三方的电子邮件发送者认证。

Sender accreditation is a third-party process of verifying email senders and requiring them to follow certain usage guidelines. In return, you'll be listed in a trusted listing that ISPs reference to allow certain emails to bypass email filters.

28. Monitor the reputation of your sender's IP address.

您的电子邮件的可传递性在很大程度上取决于您的IP地址的声誉。如果您正在从IP地址发送声誉较差的IP地址,那么您的电子邮件成功交付给发件人的收件箱的可能性要小得多。

DNSstuff.com让您检查您是否是黑名单发件人 - 许多不幸的电子邮件营销人员甚至都不知道。

29. Always stay up-to-date on changes in email sending laws, ISP behavior, and spam filter technology.

电子邮件营销正在不断发展,并且保持知识有助于确保您始终遵循最佳实践和法律。负责任和合法的电子邮件营销人员定期阅读电子邮件发送法律,ISP行为和垃圾邮件过滤技术。
