Best Practices for HMails Success
Do: Separate Transactional and Marketing Streams
Use different dedicated IPs for transactional and marketing email. Transactional email has higher engagement and protects your sending reputation for critical messages.
Do: Implement Proper Authentication
Configure SPF, DKIM, and DMARC for all sending domains. Authentication improves deliverability and protects your brand from spoofing.
Do: Monitor Bounce Rates Closely
High bounce rates damage sender reputation. Monitor bounce rates by ISP and investigate sudden increases immediately.
Don't: Send to Unverified Addresses
Validate email addresses before sending. Invalid addresses create hard bounces that hurt your sender reputation.
Don't: Ignore Spam Complaints
Spam complaints are the fastest way to destroy sender reputation. Monitor complaint rates and immediately suppress subscribers who complain.
