I like the idea of shooting out a periodic email highlighting different posts from a list of visitors and what-not however, my fear is that my emails will only end up in the junk/spam folder. How does one avoid this?
Hi Sharon,
You want to make sure your sending your readers to an email provided by your hosting. You do not want to send them to your personal emails like gmail or yahoo. You will get tons of spam and hackers. By sending them to your hosting email it will protect your account and avoid a headache of losing the emails or sending them to spam.
Nancy do you mean send them a link to [email protected] rather than [email protected]? And my correspondence should come from [email protected], even if I use a service like Constant Contact?
Hi Mike,
Yes, your right. Your email should always be forwarded to your hosting email. They provide free email to use.
Enjoyed your post, a lot of useful information. Thanks!
