We talked about blacklisting, he wanted to spend some time for the rubber hits the road for email delivery: ISP inbox.

Let's be very clear about this for consumers from campaigns are 4 major ISPs that handle most of the inboxes of consumers.

• MSN / Hotmail

• Yahoo Mail

• The goal mail

• Gmail

What does this mean?
Basically, unless each of these mail platformS relays your message to the parent folder, the email campaign is far from being optimized.

What causes mail to be delivered to a bulk folder / spam?
All these Internet providers allow their users to report spam to a "spam" button. The ISP uses this information to create a profile for your mail. If users are reporting your mail as spam you will run into problems.

What I can do to make sure they do not create ISP Spam complaints?
AOL recommends keeping spam complaints below 1.3 percent of traffic, depending on volume. This figure applies only to AOL's user base is too generous when applied as a general rule. Be at or below the rank of a complaint for every 6000-8000 posts per cent, or 0.013.

Minimize complaints

Minimizing complaints always starts with the practices used to collect email addresses. It should be obvious by now sending unsolicited emails only get into trouble. Mailing lists with the lowest reporting rates are confirmed opt-in or managed properly only opt-in. If you have a solid list based on the permit, but still find the complaints received are higher than the optimal rate or increasing, consider the following:

• Make your subject line. Email systems with spam complaint buttons offered at the inbox. The recipient simply scan the matter and decide which messages are not removed immediately. A subject line as "interesting offers for you, Bob!" surely be marked as spam. Consider using your company or newsletter name in brackets at the beginning of your subject line.

• Consider including unsubscribe instructions at the top of your e-mail, in addition to the footer. Some people use the "report spam" button as a method of low and no scroll through an entire message to find that link.

• Include instructions for users to whitelist your domain. This prevents a user-based filter to confuse the spam message and either diverted to the spam folder or the prefix "[SPAM]" to the message subject.

• Provide an update page of preferences. Revealing how the organization will use a subscriber email addresses, and how often. Allow subscribers to select the preferences of the opt-in form, and e-mail link to a preference or profile update page.

• Avoid looking for spam content. Avoid using fancy fonts, bold, red letters and the like. Avoid images with poor compression quality. A clean and easy to read is not as likely to be confused with spam.

• No more than e-mail. If recipients expect to receive information about e-mails each month from your business, not suddenly start sending two or three each week.

• Do not send unexpected email. If subscribers opted to receive their "Trends and Tips" newsletter, do not send their e-commerce hard sell, unless they clearly requested them.

• Include information on opt-in. If possible, add to your e-mail information about the area of ??administration, such as the email address of the subscriber, the date of opt-in, and how potentially subscribed (product registration, the white form discharge of paper, entering the competition, etc..) With many subscribers receiving dozens of commercial email messages every day, it is easy to forget to sign up for your newsletter - and then file a complaint.
