Hello All!

In this month of love we’ll be focusing on the template editing options we love at Swiftpage emarketing . One of the most valuable benefits of the Swiftpage emarketing service is that it brings email creation capabilities to users that are not trained in HTML coding. For our non-HTML-speaking users, our Basic editor brings the power of professional email template creation without the stress and hassle of learning HTML. In the spirit of loving our Basic Editor, we’ve creating The Complete Guide to Email Marketing Using the Basic Template Editor (coming soon). For now, I’ve included a sneak peak of some of the best Basic Editor shortcuts in the article below. To become a true Email Marketing pro check out our current blog series of Email Marketing Terms - with more to come!

Now let’s get building!

Get Delivered - Make Your Subject Line Work For You

Spam filters can be triggered to quarantine or reject an email message completely after identifying specific words in the subject line. Your subject line should be a strong representation of the information contained within the email.

Here are a few things to avoid:

  • Special characters like a percent sign or exclamation point
  • All capital letters
  • Excessive use of punctuation

Remember to capture the attention of the recipient, not the spam filter.
