2. Fair: Addresses with fair sender scores land in the readers’ inbox effectively. Nonetheless, an email with a fair score might go in the category of ‘Promotions’. It happens only when there’s excessive content of sales in the body of the email.
    
3. Low: Emails with a low score reputation might reach the inbox of the user. But, there are chances that they are marked as spam and have low chances of ever being opened.
    
4. Bad: If an address has a low reputation score, all emails originating from it will be hailed naturally or dropped at the SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) level. The bad reputation score is associated with the addresses or IPs that create high volumes of spam.

How to Improve Email Reputation

Email reputation is directly proportional to the deliverability pace of your campaign. Correct and fruitful email sending practices are important even if you have a huge subscriber base. Without following strategies and methodologies the results could be disappointing.

4. Maintain consistency through your emails: Maintain a proper recurrence for your email marketing campaigns. The audience gets upset with the inconsistency.
    
5. Maintain the email frequency: To maintain the proper frequency is important. Try to maintain the balance between too much and too few, so that it does not impact your sender score as well as the conversion rate. 
6. Maintain the KPIs: It is also important that you consider each element important to maintain a good reputation score. To maintain the KPIs, you must monitor your email reputation after every interval.
