Getting Started with AMP for Email in AWeber
AWeber empowers customers to create engaging email messages through the use of interactive and dynamic content. Traditional email has been static, lacking the ability to update or change once delivered. With Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) for Email, AWeber introduces a transformative feature that allows for interactive and real-time content within emails.
Here, we can see an AMP-powered yes/no poll within an email. These results are displayed in real time and reflect the responses of others who have previously engaged with it, even after the email has been delivered to your inbox.
Before you can send emails with AMP content, there are a few necessary steps to get started. This article provides a comprehensive guide, including educational resources and instructions, to help you begin your journey with AMP.
Set Up Custom DKIM Records With Your DNS Provider
To ensure the security and validity of AMP content in your emails, it is required to configure custom DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) records for the domain associated with your AWeber account. These records are necessary for passing DKIM validation checks. Refer to the guide on setting up DKIM records for your domain to ensure seamless integration of AMP content in your emails.
Once you have completed these steps, you'll unlock the ability to include captivating content in your emails, such as our Image Carousel feature.
Register With Mailbox Providers To Send Dynamic Emails
Email clients require sender registration to display AMP emails to users. Email clients require sender registration to ensure the secure and trusted delivery of AMP emails to users' inboxes. By adhering to the registration process and meeting the requirements set by email clients, you can unlock the full potential of AMP for Email and create impactful and engaging email campaigns.
AWeber is registered on Yahoo's trusted sender list, enabling customers with Yahoo email addresses to receive AMP emails without individual registration. This streamlines the process of sending and receiving AMP emails.
It is important to note that registration is still required for sending AMP messages to subscribers using Verizon Media, Gmail, and Mail.ru. The registration process ensures compliance and facilitates the successful delivery of AMP emails. Thankfully, the registration process has been simplified to a single registration form, making it more convenient for you. The email client (Verizon Media, Gmail, and Mail.ru) aim to respond to most requests within 5 working days.
While you are awaiting approval, you can still send AMP mail to yourself and test its functionality using the AMP Email Playground.
Note: Dynamic Messages must be turned on when sending to Yahoo email addresses.
