Email deliverability is a critical factor in the success of your sales and marketing campaigns, as it determines whether your emails reach your recipients' inboxes. With FlashInfo Engage, we have optimized our platform towards deliverability and implemented strategies to address common issues affecting it.

In this article, we'll discuss email deliverability, the common reasons why emails fail to reach inboxes, and how FlashInfo Engage helps you improve your delivery rate.


Understanding Email Deliverability:

Email deliverability measures the success rate of your sales and marketing emails in reaching your recipients' inbox folders.

Good email deliverability means your emails are sent and delivered without issues, while poor deliverability indicates that spam filters have flagged your emails and directed them to spam folders.

Common Email Deliverability Issues:

Several factors can negatively impact your email deliverability rate, such as:

  1. Authentication problems or technical issues with your emailing server
  2. Weak sender reputation, often due to a newly created email account or lack of engagement in previous campaigns
  3. Poor list hygiene, including sending emails to invalid addresses or encountering spam traps
  4. Triggering spam filters with your content or sending patterns
