Hello, fellow Wealthy Affiliate members!

I just had an experience that truly solidified why Wealthy Affiliate’s Site Support is TOP-NOTCH.

Why I Needed Help

I recently set up my email marketing with Systeme.io, my go-to all-in-one marketing tool that includes:
A funnel builder
A campaign builder for my autoresponder & email sequences
Other fantastic features to run my online business smoothly

However, there was one big issue—I needed to authenticate my email to ensure it landed in my subscribers’ inboxes (not their spam folder!).

I was originally using my Hotmail.com email in my autoresponder, but that’s a huge mistake! Here’s why...

Why You Shouldn’t Use a Free Email (Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo, etc.) in Your Autoresponder

If you’re using a free email domain like @hotmail.com or @gmail.com for your email campaigns, you’re risking:

-Low Deliverability – Your emails might never reach your audience’s inbox.
-High Spam Rate – Email providers often flag emails from free domains as spam.
-Damaged Credibility – Using a custom email (e.g., you@yourdomain.com) makes you look more professional and trustworthy.

How Wealthy Affiliate Saved the Day!

Luckily, Wealthy Affiliate provides a custom email for every premium domain we own—so I set up my @mydomain.com email and reached out to Site Support to help me authenticate it with Systeme.io.

Within no time, they:
Helped me verify my domain email
Ensured my emails were properly authenticated (DKIM, SPF, DMARC settings configured)

The Big Takeaway

If you’re doing email marketing, get yourself a custom email (Wealthy Affiliate gives you one for FREE with your domain). It will:
- Boost email deliverability
- Increase credibility
- Reduce spam risk

Big shoutout to Wealthy Affiliate’s Site Support—they’ve once again proven why WA is the best platform for building and growing an online business!
