Worldwide subject line keywords are interesting. So many of them are commerce related.
- Samuel_Michon 14y ago‘Commerce related’? That’s a very nice way of putting it. I’d say it’s all spam. From the pile of keywords Yahoo considers ‘good’: free, rates, coupon, vacation, deals, save, today, lingerie, wants, shipping, alert, extra, daily, favorite, sale.
- vidarh 14y agoSounds about right for me. Quite a few of those words occur a lot in subjects I get from legitimate mailing lists relatively regularly, while "non-commercial" e-mails that I receive from individuals tends to vary a lot more and would be unlikely to make the list.
- Samuel_Michon 14y agoBefore I send out an email campaign with MailChimp, it lets me test whether my emails will be caught by spam filters of the various major ISPs. If I were to include any of the earlier listed keywords in the subject line, I can be sure that those emails wouldn't arrive in all of my recipients' mailboxes. That's why I refrain from using those, even though I only send out commercial emails that cusatomers have signed up for themselves.
