Why email marketing

Email Marketing is the most cheapest and efficient way to promote products. However, under tons of junk mail, your marketing mail always be neglected and put into the wastebasket. To stand out from the junk mails, follow the suggestions below to increase the power of your email marketing.

1. No “image only” email, use text mail instead

First, email with image will put extra loading on the email server, which will make the processing time longer. Second, some email servers will mark those “image only” emails as junk mails or spam mails. This, of course, will lower the chance to deliver the mail to your customer.

2. No attachments

Similar to the above case, emails with attachments will put extra loading on the email server. Under the threat of virus, some email servers will filter out the email attachment.

3. No fancy HTML email

HTML email can provide a feature rich interface. However, not all email clients support the HTML email well. Even the email clients claim they are support HTML email, different email clients performs differently. If the email clients cannot support well, how can your customer read the message? Moreover, many users set the email client as “Do not load image automatically”, your email will have many blank areas in this case.

4. Write down the recipient’s name

This will raise the customers’ interest because they don’t want to skip any message that related to them.

5. Provide your sender address

Some email server will block those emails with invalid sender address, or emails’ sender address that not exists in the recipients’ address book. So don’t hide your name, let your customer knows who you are.

Advantages of Using PHP

History of PHP PHP (it originally was abbreviation of for Personal Home Page) was first written by Rasmus Lerdorf . These were Perl scripts to track users of his Web pages. On communication and suggestions from other people he rewrote it as a scripting language and added support for forms. As its popularity grew, a core group of developers created an API for it and turned it into PHP3. Presently we have version 5. (PHP5) and its growth is likely to continue. Advantages of PHP PHP will run on all platforms, including most UNIXs, Windows (95/98/NT/2000) and Macs. As this uses the same code base, all scripts will run identically on all the platforms. PHP is similar to C. So anyone who has experience with a C-style language will easily learnd PHP. In C-style languages we can also include Javascript and Java. In fact, much of PHP’s functionality is provided by wrappers around the underlying system calls (such as fread() and strlen()) so C programmers will immediately feel at home.
