Keep Inbox Placement While Everyone Else Slides into Spam

Inbox rules changed across major providers in the past year, and many senders felt it.
If your messages feel harder to place, do not panic. The fix is a clear setup, clean lists, and steady habits.
This guide gives you a plain checklist plus a short rescue plan that you can run in three weeks.

You won’t find this stock on the Nasdaq

That means you’re still early.

Shares of Mode Mobile have soared over 2,900% higher since their first private offering in 2021. But they have even bigger plans in store, reserving the Nasdaq ticker $MODE. Even better? You don’t have to wait to invest.

Here’s why you want in: Mode’s completely rethought the smartphone by letting their users earn and save money simply by using their phones. Safe to say, it’s been a huge success. They’ve already reached 45 million customers, made $75M+ in revenue, and topped Deloitte’s ā€œFastest Growing Software Companyā€ list.

And you can be part of that growth, pre-IPO. You can even get up to 20% bonus stock as an early-stage investor. But don’t wait.

Authenticate your mail

Set up SPF and DKIM for your domain. Add a DMARC record to start with policy p=none and add rua and ruf reports to an inbox you watch. This proves your identity and helps providers trust your traffic. After a few weeks of clean sending, you can tighten that policy.

Make unsubscribe one click

Add both headers: List-Unsubscribe with a mailto or URL, and List-Unsubscribe-Post with List-Unsubscribe=One-Click. Place a clear link in the footer, too. When leaving is simple, fewer readers hit the junk button. Fewer complaints protect your domain standing.

Keep complaints tiny

Aim for fewer than one in a thousand sends that trigger a complaint. If you see a spike, trim your next send to your most active readers, slow your tempo, and use clear subject lines. Re-engage cold contacts only after a rest period, and remove those who do not interact.

Split traffic by purpose

Send receipts, password resets, and similar alerts from one domain or subdomain, and marketing messages from another. This keeps vital alerts safe if marketing draws complaints. It also gives you cleaner data when you check the reputation.

Here’s What a 1-Day Gutter Upgrade Should Cost You

Today, seniors (even on a fixed income or pension) can afford a modern gutter guard, along with 1-day installation and a 100% no-clog guarantee.

With this new website, you can ā€˜skip’ the middleman, design a gutter guard that’s right for you, and get (fair) local pricing.

Use Gmail promotions annotations

Add annotations so mobile readers see your logo and a clear end date for time-bound campaigns inside the Promotions view. Prepare a small JSON block, test it, and include it in messages that carry a special push. It looks polished and can lift visibility without tricks.

a 21-day rescue plan

Days 1 to 3: silence cold segments, send only to your highest click group, and confirm your headers. Days 4 to 7: continue with engaged readers, tighten copy for clarity, and reduce frequency. Days 8 to 14: run a single re-engagement note to a warm group, then pause those who stay silent. Days 15 to 21: widen a bit, keep monitoring complaints each day, and expand only if trends stay stable.

Your weekly routine

Check Postmaster Tools, watch complaints, hard bounces, and clicks. Prune dead weight every week. Keep templates tidy, keep links consistent, and ship on a steady schedule. If you want the setup checklist and header snippets, reply and I will send them.
