Performing a spam test is quick and easy with Mail-tester.com. Here’s a simple guide to help you ensure your emails land in inboxes, not spam folders.

1. Compose Your Email: Create the email you plan to send out. Ensure that the email has been properly formatted with text, links, and any other necessary elements.
2. Obtain the Test Email Address: Go to Mail-tester.com, where you’ll see a unique email address generated specifically for your test. This address is temporary and used only for this test.
3. Send the Email: Using your email service provider, send your test email to the provided email address. Make sure to send it exactly as it would appear to your subscribers, including the subject line and sender details.
4. Check Your Score: After sending the email, return to the Mail-tester.com page and click “Check your score.” The tool will analyze your email and provide a score out of 10, indicating how likely your email is to end up in spam folders.
5. Review the Feedback: Along with your score, you’ll receive detailed feedback on several factors like DKIM, SPF records, and the email’s content (e.g., spammy words, poor HTML structure). Use this information to make improvements.

Regularly running spam tests helps boost email deliverability, ensuring more of your emails reach your audience’s inbox.
