With the popularity of email as a marketing medium due to its low cost, many companies have seized the opportunity and inundated many people's email accounts with promotional email.

But, with an opt-in list, you avoid this hassle because people subscribe to the list; they want to receive the newsletters and promotional materials. 

They have given their consent to be on the list by subscribing themselves, but don't forget to put a function to unsubscribe each time from your subscription list to avoid confusion. 

There may be times when an email account was provided where the actual owner did not want to subscribe.

It is essential that you keep your list clean and manageable. Organize it using the many tools and technologies available to your subscription list. 

Do not worry; Your investment in this marketing strategy is worth it with all the coverage you will get, which will likely turn into sales and then profit.

Keep yourself and your business out of trouble and potential run-ins with the law and Internet service providers. Keep your operation legitimate and clean. 

Your reputation as a legitimate businessman and a legitimate site depends on you being a true marketing strategist. As a tip, here are three things to avoid when emailing your list.

1) Take note of your failed shipments. These are the emails that bounce. Bounced emails, also known as undeliverable messages, are those messages that, for whatever reason, were not successfully received by the intended recipient.

There are bounces that occur or occur because the server was busy at the time, but can still be delivered at another time. 

There are also bounces because the recipient's inbox is full at the moment. There are those bounce messages that just can't ever be delivered. 

The reason for this is that it may be an invalid email address, a misspelled email address, or an email address that has already been abandoned and deleted.

Manage your list by putting marks on the bouncers. Delete an email account from your list to have accurate statistics and records on how many are receiving your mail. 

You can also check the spelling of your email addresses on your list. A common mistake is when an N is placed in place of an M in the .com area.

2) Always provide an unsubscribe function on your site and an unsubscribe link in your emails. 

When someone on your list submits a request to unsubscribe, always take it seriously. If you don't remove them from your list and keep sending their emails to them, you are now spamming them.

When you are reported as a spammer, you and your business can get into a lot of trouble. You can be reported to the authorities and perhaps blacklisted by many Internet service providers. 

You will lose many subscribers this way and many more in potential subscribers.

3) Do not provide pornographic or shocking or disturbing content in your newsletters. It is difficult to decipher the age of the recipient and many complaints can arise from these. 

You should also avoid controversial issues so that your subscribers don't rate them. Stick to the nature of your site and your business.

Always remember these tips in this article so that you can have a healthy relationship with your subscribers and stay within the limits of what is allowed in sending emails to a subscription list.
