Consistent Deliverability Maximizes Results, Even on Basic Plans

April 27, 2025

Even with a basic SendGrid plan, disciplined email practices maintain high reputation scores and consistent deliverability performance.

Consistent Deliverability Maximizes Results, Even on Basic Plans

SendGrid has consistently assigned our domain the highest reputation score (5) for months, keeping us in their top-tier IP pools - even though we’re on their basic API plan.

Our sender practices not only maintain our own deliverability but also help others sharing the same IP pool achieve excellent performance.

This is a reminder that consistent email deliverability management lets you max results, even with a $19.95/mo plan sending up to 50k emails.

And it’s also why SH Consulting open rates consistently stay between 70% and 80%, never dropping below 60%.
