These days, email addresses are abused. People send unsolicited emails for all sorts of things from some illegal bank transactions to offers of clearly criminal scams. As a result of this huge abuse to the email system; it is now difficult to get legitimate business messages delivered. Internet Service Providers have taken radical actions to put in place strong spam filters. A lot of people now have measures in their email systems where some messages with some selected words or phrases are completely filtered out.
All this means that in the first instance, you must have an authentic way of creating your email list for your online business. The only authentic way to build your list of organic email address for your online business is through visitors signing up on your website, subscribing to your e-zine or e-course or whatever you offer of your website. Any allegations of spamming can get your website shut down or you may face some penalties - it simply is just not worth it.

· Send emails only to people who have voluntarily requested information from you by subscribing on your website.
· Personalize your emails by including the person’s name in the subject line and body of email.
· Your email subjects must be catchy and interesting, and related to what is in the body of your email.
· Do not send your emails with attachments - these are normally viewed with suspicion fir viruses.
· Do not use all caps in your emails no matter how much you want to attract the recipient’s attention.
· Avoid using words that are associated with scams; namely ‘free’, ‘make quick money’ etc.

· Use simple and easy to understand English. Make sure that you are friendly in your emails and continue to personalize the email.
· Write high quality emails with no grammar or spelling mistakes.
· Be excited and passionate about what you are offering in your email.

If you are offering a product or service, highlight the benefits to be gained from the product/service.
· Create urgency in your emails - let the person who receives your email know that they need to act fast because time is of essence.
· Use action verbs as much you can.
