Sending every email to everyone feels efficient. It's quietly destroying your engagement and reputation. Here's why segmentation beats blasting, every time.
It feels wrong to delete subscribers you worked to get. But a smaller, engaged list outperforms a bloated, dead one — and protects your ability to reach anyone at all.
Every 'best email service' list is sponsored. Here's an unsponsored framework for actually choosing — based on what you're sending and what you'll regret skipping.
Everyone chases social platforms they don't own and algorithms they can't control. Meanwhile the humble email newsletter — a direct line to your audience that no platform can take away — sits underrated.

Everyone has a theory about why email lands in spam — too many links, the word "free," too many images. Most of it is folklore. The real reasons are about authentication, reputation, and engagement — and they're fixable.
Every cold email tool sells "warmup" as a magic button for the inbox. Some of it genuinely helps; much of it is theater. Here's how to tell real reputation-building from automated noise that mailbox providers already see through.
When your app needs to send email, you face an old fork in the road: the classic SMTP protocol or a modern email API. The right choice depends on what you're actually doing.
Your open rates dropped and you blamed your subject lines. The real culprit is usually deliverability — the metric that fails invisibly and takes everything down with it.
Password resets, receipts, alerts — the unglamorous emails your product can't function without. Here's why you need a proper API for them, not a hacked-together script.
Mixing your password resets with your promotions on the same sending infrastructure is a quiet way to break both. The two email types have opposite requirements — and they need separation.
"Tuesday at 10am is the best time to send email" is one of marketing's most repeated claims. It's also mostly nonsense. The obsession with send time is a distraction from the things that actually determine whether your email works.
