This email marketing ROI calculator aims to demonstrate the maximum amount of revenue you could realistically earn from your email list.

However, many factors determine your success, including how easily your emails can reach the inbox. Among these are the email domains used by your email list and newsletter subscribers.

Every freemail domain uses proprietary AI to assist with spam detection. These tools examine numerous characteristics of all incoming emails, including

• The IP address
• The incoming domain
• The incoming subdomain (if applicable)
• Authentication records and reputation (SPF, DMARC, DKIM)
• Internal and external email blacklists
• Historical engagement (spam reports, opens, clicks, etc.)

Gmail, Hotmail, and Yahoo examine these factors in differing ways to varying effectiveness.
Why does this matter to you?

If you only use one email format for all freemail domains, your inbox placement rate will vary. Currently, Gmail demonstrates the most accurate spam detection, reliably placing quality emails in the inbox and legitimate spam in the respective folder.

However, other freemail domains may place your legitimate emails in spam due to their different detection methods.

After learning where your potential email marketing revenue lies, you’ll know where to direct your future efforts.

If the bulk of your freemail revenue comes from a particular domain, you should prioritize your content creation efforts to suit best what the domain approves. Variables such as your subject lines, choice of phrases, and overall content structure can influence how successfully you reach the inbox.

However, you can maximize revenue from all freemail domains by strategically segmenting emails.

Segment freemails to bypass spam detection methods

Rather than grouping all subscribers into one email list, you should segment those users into smaller lists for improved email deliverabilityⓘA sender’s ability to reach the recipient’s inbox with their outgoing emails. It may also describe the ratio of emails delivered to the inbox vs. those sent to spam or blocked by the receiving server. and engagement.

Though often overlooked, segmenting by email domain can help your emails reach the inbox. While one type of message works well in Gmail, Yahoo, for example, may mark it as spam if it flags a spam detection rule.

By segmenting your subscribers by email domain, you can gain more accurate insights into your deliverability. You can use split testing to identify issues in your content to connect with your customers reliably.

Deliverability tools like an inbox placement tester can provide additional assistance with identifying what works best for different email domains. You can trial different types of content without risking unwanted email bounces or spam complaints.

Use email list segmentation to customize your content for different audiences

Email segmentationⓘThe process of manually dividing a customer contact list into smaller lists based upon factors such as demographics, interests, needs, or past behaviors. should not only apply to different freemail domains but can also impact several other personal identifiers.

• Occupation/industry
• Household income

• Previous shopping activity

Segmenting by domain can drastically improve inbox deliverability. Further segmenting by interests and demographics helps you specifically tailor the perfect message to secure more clicks and purchases from your email marketing efforts.
