5 Reasons Why Your Emails Might Be Going to Spam (and How to Fix It)
Ever spent hours crafting the perfect email…Only to have it land next to “WIN A FREE IPHONE” and a dodgy crypto pitch?
Here’s what might be going wrong 👇
1. Your sender reputation’s sketchy
Think of it like an email credit score.
Too many blasts to dead lists = flagged as spam.
2. You’re emailing ghosts
If someone hasn’t opened anything in 6+ months…
In the wise words of Elsa: ❄️ Let it go.
3. You’re too random
Infrequent, inconsistent emails get ignored by people and inbox filters.
Regular beats random.
4. Your subject lines scream “SPAM”
“Open now!!” or “Quick question 👀” = red flags.
Write like a human, not a clickbait bot.
5. Your tech setup’s off
SPF, DKIM, DMARC — weird acronyms, crucial for deliverability.
A good email platform can help you get this right.
💡 Bottom line:
You need to convince inboxes you’re safe
and convince humans you’re worth opening.
