Do You Miss Out on Email Click-Throughs Because of This Stupid Little Thing?

See my previous post on 202 Tips To Increase Blog Traffic

Here's a little email marketing traffic conversion tip that cost me (and I bet you) many email link click-throughs, thus potential sales.

Ignorance is not a bliss in this case.

Some email clients, notably Gmail, which I primarily use for my business, will not make a link in the emails you send clickable if you have capital letters in your URL without using "www" first.

Example:

http://www.TrafficGenerationCafe.com
vs
http://TrafficGenerationCafe.com

Did you notice how I capitalized TrafficGenerationCafe? That's what I am talking about.

The second link in Gmail will not be clickable, meaning you could miss out on a huge amount of traffic conversion if you make this simple mistake.

I was doing this, and luckily a loyal subscriber pointed it out to me.

So now I'm pointing it out to you.

Lesson: Either use "www" or don't have caps in your URLs.

You are right: you don't have to comment or retweet, but would it help if I told you it would be much appreciated? :)
