Contrary to what most people believe…
High email deliverability doesn’t start with your subject line.
Instead, the foundation of getting your emails read is your technical setup.
The technical setup consists of your email authentication records and custom tracking domain.
We’ve created a tool that checks if your technical setup is in order. It’s fast, accurate, and as a bonus, it also checks if your domain is on an email blacklist.
How to use the deliverability setup checker
Just add your domain to the Your domain name field (1) and click Check domain setup (2)…
For these results, the email authentication and MX records are in order.
However, the domain is on a blacklist, which would need to be addressed.
Your technical setup explained 👨🏻🏫
The technical setup is the machinery behind your email deliverability.
If it’s not functioning properly, many of your emails will land in the spam folder.
To help you understand better what it is and what it does, here’s a short explanation of each element of your technical setup:

➡️ SPF: Sender Policy Framework is an email authentication protocol. You implement it through a DNS record in which you specify which servers can send email through your domain. If you use an email service provider, you’d typically include their server in your SPF record. Receiving email servers can check the SPF record to verify that incoming emails are sent from an authorized server. If an email indeed comes from an unauthorized server, the receiving server may mark the email as spam or reject it entirely, helping to prevent spoofing and phishing attacks.

➡️ DKIM: DomainKeys Identified Mail authenticates the content of your email. It allows the receiving server to check if an email has been tampered with during transit. If it has, the email will fail authentication, potentially resulting in the email server rejecting the email or sending it to the spam folder.

➡️ DMARC: Although receiving servers have their own policies on what to do with unauthorized emails, Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting and Conformance allows you to set yours. Your DMARC policy comes into play when an email fails SPF or DKIM authentication. You can either reject the email altogether, send it to spam, or let it pass regularly.

➡️ MX records: MX records tell sending servers where to send email. More specifically, to what receiving email servers should they send the email? If you don’t have MX records set up for your domain, sending servers won’t know where to send your incoming email. In other words, you won’t be able to receive email.

➡️ Custom Tracking Domain: To track clicks, opens, and other engagement metrics, your email-sending tool adds a tracking domain to your emails. Unfortunately, many of their customers, including spammers, use this tracking domain, lowering your deliverability. By using a Custom Tracking Domain, you’ll have better inbox placement.
