Email hygiene services are more popular than ever



Email hygiene services are more popular than ever judging by the amount of companies now that are offering it. Just 10 years ago, there were less than 5 email list validation service companies and we were one of them. Validation was not verification back then. Validation did not do any type of verifying if the email is good or a bounce. Generally, a quick mx check would suffice as bounces back then didn’t affect sending scores all that much. But wow how times have changed.

Now, there are dozens of email list hygiene companies. This trend stemmed from white listing and a need for verification. Email service providers started judging delivery based on bounces versus traps and complainers thus the need for verification was metamorphosing into the unknown. Most email verify companies could not remove traps, complainers and litigators and charged a huge price for verifying an email list. Prices range from $300 - $10,000 per 1 million records right now and many, unfortunately, think the more you pay, the better the service. That is not the case.

The typical cost, right now, to verify 1 million records, is around $300. Verify550 actually sends 3 times so our cost is more, however, we do not make runs again on good emails. All of this is done in real time and that is why our cost is $1,000 per million. But the value is more than just verification. We use eHygienics’ validation technology to remove the threats of traps, complainers and litigators not including syntax and temporaries. Verify550 was built for eHygienics to be the ultimate bounce removal tool.

Email hygiene services are more popular than ever because email service providers are using our technology to help their customers. aWeber.com recently approved Verify550 as one of their email list hygiene vendors. aWeber’s clientele are all white listed non-spammy clients and they recognize, just as we have said for years, that traps, complainers and litigators still exist inside clean lists and trusting your clientele’s memory is a bad idea.

Email Validation Services - A Thorough Walk Through

Email validation services, unlike email verification, focuses on the threats outside of the email itself. Email validation removes spamtraps, complainers, litigators, botclickers, roles/departmental and seeds while fixing the email removing syntax errors, unicode/latin characters and lastly checks the mx and domain for setup issues. Email validation is the first step in max scrubbing before you use an email verification software to remove bounces. Here are a list of all the modules inside our validation process: Traps   Spamtraps are email addresses that are purposely and strategically placed inside email marketing lists. They are can be caught by harvesting websites, expired domains and in some cases used to fill out forms. Traps can harm email deliverability by being triggered. Litigators   There are several lawyers nationwide and worldwide that sue email marketers. Sleeper cells   Many spam fighters are hosting providers. A sleeper cell email is one...

Email verification software schematics

Image
Many have asked me what are my Email verification software schematics for list hygiene. It really isn’t a secret. There are 5 fundamental parts of the email address. The user, the name, the domain, the string and the ending. This blog post explains each one of these and why it’s important to build your hygiene schematics around them. The user is the element before the at sign. The user encompasses many different parts. There are dots/periods, underscores and hyphens that separate the user information. Too many of these characters tell us the email is bad. The user information helps remove bad emails before we have to do a SMTP/MX check. The name tells is a lot about the email. Usually names are associated with B2B data in any email verify tool . In many cases, B2B emails do not last that long. This tells us what to do with the email. For example, let’s say we recorded the email as james.carner@. This tells us the person is professional and is interested in their name. We...
