ZeroBounce Tech News, October 2024: Activity Data Gets Even Better

See what’s new at ZeroBounce this month and how we’re enhancing your email marketing tools to boost your performance this holiday.

Track your leads’ activities around the web

To help you reach the most active contacts, the Activity Data service now provides greater insights on your lead engagement. 

Easily identify more high-value leads by seeing:

• Last Activity Date – 30, 60, 90, 180, 365, or 365+ days
• Number of Activities (new) – How many times a user opens, clicks, or sends
• Type of Activity (new) – Open, click, send
• Channel of Activity (new) – Email, web
• Free through November – You can add this Activity Data to your email list validation results for better targeting, segmentation, and Black Friday/Cyber Monday campaigns. 

Cox.net validation functionality added to Verify+

Yahoo Mail is now the email service provider for Cox Communications and all Cox.net email accounts. Read more about these changes.

In response, Verify+ from ZeroBounce now includes functionality to accurately validate Cox.net email accounts. 

Why Verify+?

Since 2018, Yahoo began disabling inactive email accounts instead of deactivating and recycling them. This change makes it nearly impossible to distinguish if an account is valid or disabled. 

Verify+ from ZeroBounce solves this issue by checking these accounts for email bounces. Learn more here.

Warmup hits a record week

Thanks to your use and feedback, our new email warm-up service hit a record week for emails processed! 

With your help, we were able to provide necessary improvements, including faster processing and better scalability, especially on Yahoo seeds.

Additional Warmup updates:

 • We’re currently testing new seeds for additional mail providers

  • Users will now receive automated notifications if any sending issues arise

Email validation enhancements

Our industry-leading email validation tool continues to become more precise.

We made optimizations to automatically retry validations when we experience “unknown” results for large list files. We’ll continue to retry to provide you with reliable, actionable data. 

Email Finder enhancements

The Email Finder tool is optimized to reattempt queries when experiencing an “undetermined” result. You can expect better results with greater accuracy across all Email Finder search queries.

HubSpot integration adjustments

Last month, we released a major update to our official HubSpot integration (learn all about it in this video!).

We also adjusted the auto-validation/Contact Monitoring feature to validate email addresses when the contact is added to a list, ensuring that list stays clean and up-to-date. 

Friendly reminder – our updated Activity Data service is free through November! Log in to your account today and try it!
