Email Deliverability
The ability of your outreach emails to successfully reach recipients' inboxes
Email deliverability measures whether your outreach emails actually reach the recipient’s inbox rather than being filtered to spam or blocked entirely. For link building outreach, poor deliverability means your carefully crafted pitches never get seen. Key factors affecting deliverability include sender reputation, email authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), email content quality, sending volume patterns, and bounce rates. Maintaining good deliverability requires warming up new email accounts gradually, keeping bounce rates below 2%, avoiding spam trigger words, and regularly cleaning your contact lists. Monitoring deliverability metrics and using tools like Mail Tester helps identify and fix issues before they impact your campaigns.
