Summary
As you must know, your company’s IP and domain reputations are major assets that need to be protected. They depict the quality of your company’s email sending environment and are important factors of deliverability.
In a nutshell, any company would be well advised to have positive IP and domain reputations to make sure that its emails get to the right prospects’ inboxes. Negative IP and domain reputations mean poor deliverability and this is absolutely not what you want for your company.
