Did my aweber email address get marked as junk/spam for the majority of my list?

2 replies
I've currently got a list of 1500 on aweber but I'm thinking that my emails go to junk/spam for a large % of my list. I think this because my open rate stays at around 300-400 as my list has grown hundreds of subscribers more.

I also noticed this because it happened in my own gmail account that I use to test my emails.

Now I've changed all the subject lines to avoid the most common spam triggers, but if the damage is already done to a large part of the list, how can I fix this?

For example, if I change the 'from' address and name, will it still get marked as spam or will my mails start going to the inboxes again?

Would love some insight into this.

      Hi Reportking,
      thanks for telling me that, I had no idea open rates were that low on average, especially since it's confirmed optins.

      OK I'll stop worrying about it then!
      Cheers

          The actual number of opens for your list will be higher
          than 300-400 because of the inherent inaccuracy of
          open rates.

          Open rates are measured by a little image file in each
          message and not all subscribers allow images to be
          displayed in their e-mails. Therefore, although some
          have opened and read the e-mail, they may not register
          as an open at AWeber.

          Also, the figure to pay attention to is unique opens
          rather than total opens that are displayed on your
          main page within AWeber.

          Just use your open rates as a guide to the relative
          effectiveness of your e-mail messages rather than
          comparing your open rates with other list owners.

          Dedicated to mutual success,

          Shaun
