See what's includedFirstly, let's make sure we know exactly what deliverability is.
If our marketing email arrives in the subscribers' inbox, that is a successful delivery. However many things could affect our emails deliverability, like Internet Service Providers (ISPs), bounces, spam issues to name a few.
In today's chart, the question asked, "How do you monitor and improve deliverability?" It is good to see that the majority do monitor it in some form. 37% test messages for the spam score and optimize before sending. Although still, 28% say they do nothing.
You need to monitor your deliverability. For example, if you are having high bounce rates, it could mean your domain is on a blacklist somewhere. And ISPs take notice of reputable blacklists like SpamCop.
With deliverability, you don't want to be complacent. Even if you monitor it once a month in a report, its better than nothing. Just remember this is your reputation at stake. If you have any questions regarding deliverability please feel free to drop us a question in our email marketing community.
