A common problem amongst email marketers is that their emails are blocked due to content
To fix it you will have to use the Maborak spin addon and use your creativity and imagination. There are of course other ways to see the blocked due to content error as less as possible.
What is causing emails to get blocked due to content?
If you look at your delivery logs you probably noticed that some hundred emails were successfully delivered before they started to bounce with the error message “blocked due to content”.
Well at some point the recipient's mail server “decided” that it had enough of your marketing emails and started to block them due to content. This doesn't mean your IP or domain is blocked. It's just that Gmail or Co had enough of your emails with the same or very similar content.
How to stop it?
If you are using Interspire the only thing you can do is to heavily spin your content. Be creative and use Spintax in a way that it will make your content look unique. Don't just spin a few words. Spin your subject lines, images, and links, ... Try to make each email you send as unique as possible and you should have better results with delivery rates and will see the blocked due to content bounce errors a lot less often.
Are there other ways?
Yes, you can also prevent the blocked due to content errors by creating many different versions of each email creative and of course also spin each one as much as possible.
Interspire email marketer users will, of course, have a lot of extra work so maybe a better solution is to switch to a more modern email marketing software that will allow you to do everything described above and a lot more. I can't even say how happy I am that I switched Interspire for Mumara.
