8 STEPS TO IMPLEMENT FOR AVOIDING SPAM FILTERS

1. Include plain text version to your HTML email. Never send the HTML email alone, because it is not well received by ESP, also there can be some people who simply select to block HTML email. By sending both HTML and plain text versions help your message get delivered.

2. Have full HTML standard code. Write your HTML code inside " !DOCTYPE html> "

3. In mail header Markup delete X-Mailer and X-Campaign.

4. Do not use broken links. Make sure links are correct and directed to meaningful places.

5. Greet your recipients by their names. This will help to avoid the spam filter for one simple reason because the email is personalized.

6. Eliminate the number of external links. Including too many links in the email will either deliver it in the spam or in the promotion tab.

7. Do not use too much different font sizes and colors.

8. Before sending your email, check it on isnotspam or mail-tester.
