Bulk email service

A bulk email service allows you to send email communications to large lists of multiple recipients by incorporating email into your applications. You can send one email to many people, or a unique email to each person on your list with a bulk email service. Depending on the provider, you can send unique emails to each recipient by providing a template for substituting information (such as a name).



Sender

The person or entity sending an email message.



Email authentication

Email authentication refers to technical standards that help ISPs and other receivers validate the identity of an email sender. There are three authentication standards in use: SPF developed by AOL, Sender ID developed by Microsoft and DKIM developed by Yahoo!.



Email deliverability

Email deliverability is a way to measure the success at which an email marketer gets a campaign into subscribers' inboxes. It involves anything that touches email delivery, like ISPs, MTAs, throttling, bounces, bulking, and spam issues.



Email marketing

In its broadest sense, every email sent to a potential or current customer could be considered email marketing. It usually involves using email to send ads, request business, or solicit sales or donations, and is meant to build loyalty, trust, or brand awareness.



Email harvesting

Email harvesting is the process of obtaining lists of email addresses using various methods for use in bulk email or other purposes usually grouped as spam.



Campaign

An email you send to your list. Each bulk email that is sent to the list is considered a separate campaign. Unlike an advertising campaign that can include dozens of ads and take place over the course of months, MailGoes' campaigns are a single instance.



SPF record

An SPF record is a type of Domain Name Service (DNS) record that identifies which mail servers are permitted to send email on behalf of your domain. The purpose of an SPF record is to prevent spammers from sending messages with forged From addresses at your domain.



Email quality

Email that is deemed to be of value to the email recipient.



Bulking

When an email is routed to the spam folder instead of the inbox. Bulking can occur because of improper authentication, content resembling spam, or something in your infrastructure’s history causing concern.



Engagement

How subscribers respond to the content you’re sending. Are they regularly opening your email and clicking your links? If they’re engaging with the content, your reputation and deliverability will improve. If they’re not engaging and are deleting, marking as spam, or unsubscribing then your reputation will drop and affect your overall deliverability.



Email service provider

An email service provider (ESP), like MailGoes, is a company that provides bulk email services and email marketing tools.



Email client

A desktop program or web application that displays and manages your email. Apple Mail, Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo Mail, and Hotmail are a few examples of popular email clients. Email clients often have a strict daily sending limit of about 500 emails per day. If you need to send more emails, an Email Service Provider (ESP) like MailGoes can help.



Email header

An email consists of three vital components: the envelope, the header(s), and the body of the message. The envelope is something that an email user will never see since it is part of the internal process by which an email is routed. The body is the part that we always see as it is the actual content of the message contained in the email. The header(s), the third component of an email, is perhaps a little more difficult to explain, though it is arguably the most interesting part of an email.



Affiliate marketing

Affiliate marketing is a type of performance-based marketing in which a business rewards one or more affiliates for each visitor or customer brought by the affiliate's own marketing efforts.



Email tracking

Email tracking is a method for monitoring the email delivery to intended recipient. Most tracking technologies use some form of digitally time-stamped record to reveal the exact time and date that an email was received or opened, as well the IP address of the recipient.



Transactional email

Transactional emails are sent to one person as a result of an action triggered by the user. These are automated notifications such as welcome emails, shipping notices, order confirmations, password reminders, purchase receipts, etc.
