About this course

​Now that you’ve done a ton of work to build an engaged list, you want to keep it clean. This is where the subject of ‘email hygiene’ comes into play, and it’s very important if you want to keep a good sender reputation and if you want to make sure that your list retains its value.

Invalid Emails

The first thing to get rid of are the invalid emails. These are emails that simply aren’t real addresses, or that have been abandoned. Of course sending lovingly crafted emails to an email that’s made up – or that belongs someone who died a long time ago – is not a particularly smart business move.

One reason you can collect invalid emails is simply that people make typos when they sign up.

To ​isolate potential problem emails, you can also look for bounces. A bounced email is an email that fails to deliver and there are two types of these. ‘Soft bounces’ are temporary bounces that can be due to a range of factors (including a full inbox), whereas ‘hard bounces’ are delivery failures that are unlikely to change or be resolved. These are cases of emails never existing in the first place, created by spam bots or the email account having been deleted for instance.

Double Opt-In

If you want to avoid the number of invalid emails being too high in the first place then you should always use a double opt-in on your forms. Double opt-in means that the subscriber needs to confirm their ​email address ​by clicking on an embedded link.

​This is an important tool for blocking fake emails and for blocking ​bots. ​Robots and scripts ​automatically fill in forms – but ​they won’t be able to respond to a confirmation email.

At the same time, ​double opt-in also blocks people from signing up who aren’t really interested in your product or your messages. Some people sign up on a whim but then never check their inboxes. ​These subscribers are also highly unlikely to interact with a ​regular email, simply because it takes too much time and effort. So this way, you aren’t only filtering out the invalid email addresses, but also the disinterested subscribers.

Inactive Subscribers

​Some subscribers will become inactive. These are the people who sign up but then later lose interest in your messages. Alternatively, these people may have changed their email address, or ​may have passed on.

Whatever the case, it’s no use sending emails to someone who never opens them and it will save you and them time and money if you just remove them from your list.
