Which Words To Avoid Using In Your Emails

by Charlie Cook

While we are 100% against sending email to anyone who hasn’t requested it, the measures AOL and various ISPs use to filter out spam are the equivalent of throwing out the baby with the bath water. They are blocking legitimate mail and still letting through spam.

Take a look at the following list and see if you think these are words which should keep someone from getting email from you they’ve requested.

Just using one of these words below probably won’t get your email blocked, but use it a couple of times or with one or more of the following words and your email may be blocked by a “spam” filter.

Use the words below with caution. Note, this is just a sampling. Make sure to check your content with a current content checker such as Ezine Checker before sending out your ezine to improve your web site marketing.
