Reduce spam sign-ups for your business

0
Posted By sme-admin on October 10, 2024 Marketing

Online cloud experts at TelephoneSystems.Cloud are urging business owners to verify their email lists and take proactive steps to prevent spam sign-ups from affecting their marketing campaigns.

False data entered through sign-up forms can significantly distort analytics and harm campaign performance. This misleading information can lead to incorrect optimisation strategies and generate false leads.

Sending marketing materials to spambots not only undermines the effectiveness of a campaign but can also damage the credibility of email marketing efforts, making them appear poorly received by customers.

Juliet Moran, a digital tech expert from TelephoneSystems.Cloud, explains: “Spam sign-ups are a real problem for many business owners. Although initially, extra sign-ups may not seem like a big issue, they can greatly impact the effectiveness of email marketing campaigns.

“You may notice an increased bounce rate and weak responses to marketing activities. Additionally, spam data can completely distort customer insights, making it difficult to accurately understand your audience.

“The best step any business can take is to identify spam sign-ups, verify their email lists, and establish safeguards to minimise the risk of future spambot attacks.”

Here is TelephoneSystems.Cloud’s advice:

  1. Double opt-in 

Using a double opt-in requires users to click a link in an email to confirm their subscription, so can minimise bots and spam sign-ups.

  1. Check for signs of spam sign ups 

Signs of false sign ups include high bounce rates or low open rates, lots of sign ups with duplicate information, sign-ups with disposable email addresses and a high volume of sign-ups in a very short period of time.

  1. Use two-factor authentication 

Two-factor authentication is a great way to secure your business from spam sign-ups. It requires users to provide two forms of identification, for example a password and an SMS code, when logging in or signing up to a website.

  1. Verify your email list 

Verifying the validity and accuracy of email addresses on your sign-up list aims to remove any invalid or non-existent email addresses. You can use email verification tools to make the process faster.

  1. Software updates 

Staying on top of software updates minimises the opportunity for spam sign-ups and bots to get their email address into your system. Software updates are regularly released by developers to fix any vulnerabilities and to enhance security.
