Frequently Asked Questions

What's the ideal subject line length?

30-50 characters or 6-10 words is optimal. This ensures your subject line displays fully on mobile devices while remaining scannable and impactful.

Should I use emojis in subject lines?

One relevant emoji can increase open rates by standing out in crowded inboxes. However, avoid overuse and ensure emojis match your brand voice and audience.

How important is personalization?

Personalized subject lines can increase open rates by 26%. Use the recipient's name, company, or reference their specific interests when possible.

What are spam trigger words?

Words like "free", "guaranteed", "urgent", and "click here" can trigger spam filters. While not completely banned, use them sparingly and focus on value-driven language instead.
