Is there a better way to find email hygiene services?

Well, is there a better way to find email hygiene services other than Googling it? Yes and you need to really pay attention to this article. I try to write my blogs so that they give my competition a chance. I am confident that my system is superior so in all fairness, I recommend competition all the time. Many have asked me if there is a better way to find email verification services and in all honesty, it’s a great question, so I think it should be written about. Out of the 40 – 50 email list hygiene companies worldwide, half of them are white listed. At least 1 to 2 new ones come on to the scene but rarely ever make the cut against the seasoned companies like my own. In fact, we were the second company ever in the world to offer email cleaning. But out of the monotony of trying to find the perfect one for you, let’s hone down on what you should know to find the best. Meetup with mailers Get on every forum, club, meetup and group of email marketers that you possib

Are you always looking for email verification software and unaware that it is hiding in plain sight - right under your nose? We have researched our competitors and have found that there are around 40 email list hygiene companies and half of them white label others. What this means is there are only 20 companies in the world who have an Email verification tool . Verify550.com was released in November of 2017 but this doesn’t mean we are new. Our main company Quickie Marketing, Inc owns eHygienics.com which was the second company in the world to offer email list hygiene, providing a competition for Data Genie back in 2007. If you’ve been in this industry long enough, you may know Roger. There are several kinds of email verify tools. Validation, which matches against static suppressions, strings, mx, domains, IP’s, endings and other forms of aggregation and Verification which literally does the SMTP handshakes. Both are different yet the industry seems to be confused as to whic

A closer look at email validation services

If you’re looking for email validation services, you’ve come to the right place. Verify550 does that first and then verification. We have written many articles about free email list validation , the consequences and the reason you get what you pay for. This article will focus a little deeper on email validation and why it is so important. Verification only does the handshake. The SMTP questions are what the mail administrator wants to know about you. This is where the email becomes verified. But before that, don’t you think it’s important to fix or remove an email that would waste time and money by verifying it first before you remove errors? For example, email validation services can view the name field and see if the email matches up. If the name is Melinda and the email says Mike@ then validation would be perfect to actually remove the bad email before it goes through the verification phase. Another example of email validation would be to remove spaces in an email. Do

5 Common mistakes while email list cleaning

There are 5 common mistakes emailers do when email list cleaning. Cleaning and maintaining your list is so important and beginners have to learn the hard way, unfortunately. The smart ones find articles like mine ;-) Delimiters Large databases with multi-columns have all kinds of data. Sometimes, inside one cell is an address with a comma added to separate an apartment number or whatever the case is. Using commas as delimiters is the preferred, but how can you make sure you don’t drag your cells to the right when you have extra delimiters? Even a semi-colon is added to separate certain data types so there really is no way to find the perfect delimiter. Most hygiene companies use delimiter and semi-colon as their denominator so the trick is to open up and scan your file to fix these mistakes before you upload your data and ruin your perfect format. Size of the list The larger the list, the more mistakes. When a code goes from algorithm to completeness, some program
