Hey Warriors,
I have a huge list of emails of potential customers. I tried just a few thousands on my bulk mailer but most of them are not even opened especially that of gmail. Please help me fix the issue.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

    Chris,
    Google has a very strong anti-spamming policy. If you want to be successful in the email marketing, go with the double opt-in procedure.
    Anyhw if you want to go with the same list, as it legal, you should at least avoid the following practices to minimize emails going into spam folder:
    -Don't send any links in the email, Just send in introduction in your first email
    -Don't use promotional words like ''buy now'' etc
    -Don't address with ''Hi'' rather with the first name
    Try to avoid all means which give a sense of promotion, try to send the first email as non promotional as possible

    This how you can go through the google anti spamming and minimize the risk of spamming ur emails.

    Cheers!

      Thanks for the awesome words. On a side note, can I send bulk email from Gmail or Yahoo etc.?

      Many thanks

        you cant, Gmail allows you almost 500 emails a day, not sure of the figure exactly but its around that. Yahoo, I don't know for sure but it is like the same. They are not basically mail server. May be it provide a mail server special account but in your normal Gmail account you can't.

          Please note that even with double opt ins, gmail is going to agressively filter any type of marketing mail that you send to them.
          Transactional email will go thru usually fairly easily, but anything marketing related in going to be scrutinized heavily.
          You will also need white listed ips and old and clean domains if you want to be able to move any type of volume to gmail.

      Can Spam has nothing to do with whether google will let you in or not.
      You have to comply with the law no matter what, Google does not care if you have unsub links or not, and that would have no effect on your inboxing to them whatsoever.

    It's not About only gmail only for sending marketing email in bulk you have follow email marketing rules from mailer side and sending server side also.
    Like your mailer type, keywords, content, and most important from sending server side PTR of all sending ip's, DKIM,SPF,DMARC , with proper envelop header information do not try to hide anything regarding your app and server.

    Hope this will help you.

    The first thing to do is to have a look in the domain mailboxes and see if any are stupidly big. If they are, there's a chance that they're the one sending the emails, especially if they're bloated with bounce messages.

    Chris J,

    Ending up on spam folder could be result of mean reasons:

    - the IPs you're using had a bad reputations and history.
    - the IPs you're using are cold.
    - the email txt/html content.
    - the domain for the authorizations

    can you tell me more about the issue you're facing
    I'll me glad to help you

    Thanks

      Since the invention of emails spam mail is the main hassle in the internet. The most common scams involved with junk emails. I thing your email is being hacked. Change your password is better.

    would copy all contacts and then close that account. You could have a key logger. Then get a good antiviral program like Kaspersky and do a big sweep for viruses & key loggers.
