Not bad.<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Then one day, the open rate plummets to 20%. You start freaking out. Is it related to Spam?<\/span>\n<i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">That was my best subject line!\u00a0<\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This can\u2019t be happening!<\/span><\/i>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What\u2019s going on? Well, it could be your emails are getting flagged. There could be many reasons your emails got flagged from blocked IP addresses to too many images. The tactic you need to know is which one, so you can optimize your emails to perfection.<\/span>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are few better feelings for a marketer than sending out emails knowing all the recipients will receive them. With G-Locks Apps, Mail Tester, and Litmus, you can make that happen. If you want to focus on outbound emails for early traction or building your email list, then these tools are a must:<\/span>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">G-Lock Apps enables you to test your transactional email templates on a recurring basis and get notified if your emails started getting into spam. Furthermore, G-Lock Apps checks your IP address against 50+ blacklists every 6 hours and sends an alert via email when any of the IPs got listed. Also, their API allows you to integrate spam testing tools into your own products and applications. This way you can test your emails at scale.<\/span>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-3256\" src=\"http:\/\/bamf.lovelacecreative.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/image1-17-1024x478.png\" alt=\"BAMF Spam Emails Article Image\" width=\"1024\" height=\"478\" \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mail-tester.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mail Tester<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, you\u2019ll receive an overview of your email\u2019s performance. It won\u2019t provide you as much information as Litmus of G-Lock Apps, but it\u2019s free. You\u2019ll still have some strong signals to gauge your email optimization.<\/span>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-3257\" src=\"http:\/\/bamf.lovelacecreative.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/image3-16-1024x257.png\" alt=\"BAMF Spam Emails Article Image\" width=\"1024\" height=\"257\" \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Litmus is the most advanced email optimization tool.

If the average reader doesn\u2019t skim down, then you might need to write better email copy. If people don\u2019t respond well on mobile, then you might need to increase your font size. Take a look at their advanced email metrics:<\/span>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3259\" src=\"http:\/\/bamf.lovelacecreative.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/image2-18.png\" alt=\"BAMF Spam Emails Article Image\" width=\"930\" height=\"680\" \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With these three tools, there are no excuses for sending bad emails. Even a five percent increase in email open rates or scroll rate makes these tools worth it. Think of how much extra revenue that would equate to over a year. It\u2019s time to start sending better email.<\/span>]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11410,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ub_ctt_via":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3254,344,112,114],"tags":[177,199,111],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/bamf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image1-17.png","author_info":{"display_name":"Houston Golden","author_link":"https:\/\/bamf.com\/author\/bamfmedia\/"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bamf.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3255"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bamf.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bamf.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bamf.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bamf.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3255"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bamf.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3255\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bamf.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11410"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bamf.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3255"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bamf.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3255"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bamf.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3255"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
