What is Email List Hygiene?

Why would I want to remove contacts from my email list to improve email deliverability?

The reason you want to remove contacts from your email list is because they are no longer engaging with your emails. Now that internet service providers are tracking engagement, If you continue to mail email addresses that do not engage with your emails it will decrease your sender score.

When you score decreases, this decreases the number of emails delivered to the contacts that would normally have opened or clicked your email.

With sender score having an increased role of getting your email delivered to the inbox, leaving these un-engaged contacts on your email list becomes more of a liability than an asset.

Removing these liability contacts will increase your sender score with each email service provider your send to giving your quality contacts the best possible chance to receive your emails.
