Title: Spam words That Should Be Eliminated.
This post is an excellent post for the people who are involved in the business of sending promotional emails to a large number of people. The list of spam words which are provided in the post are neatly arranged and these are the words which are most commonly used in the promotional emails. I’ve sent promotional emails to many people. Some complain that they have not got my email. This problem can be eliminated to some extent by avoiding the use of these words. This will help to increase the exposure of the promotional email to large number of people without any hurdles and difficulties.
My spam folder overflows each day and it’s true, maximum mails are promotional mails for websites and products. However, I think it’s unfortunate that the mails from people promoting the right products and services are labelled spam too because they contain a high density of the words mentioned above. I mean an authorized and genuine mail may also suffer due to this.
It is very interesting piece of information.It will surely help to wade out the possibility of a mail going into the spam folder.Really appreciate the hard work gone into this effort.By trying to eliminate these words in the subject line,we can be guaranteed that the promotional mails reach the right potential customer.
Great work.
