A single “Not Secure” warning can shatter trust, turning a potential lead into a missed opportunity.

One of the biggest challenges marketers face is navigating the evolving filters of Google and Outlook. These platforms are increasingly sophisticated in detecting connections between domains. Without proper precautions, your emails could be flagged as spam, significantly reducing deliverability rates.

Alongside ESPs making cold outreach increasingly difficult, recipients have become more vigilant, often hesitating to click on links from domains without proper security measures like SSL. They are more wary of potential scams and unsecured websites.

That’s why we introduced Domain Masking Proxies & SSL in Infraforge! This powerful feature ensures you stay ahead of deliverability hurdles while building trust through enhanced security.

Domain Masking Proxies & SSL in Infraforge 🔵

Domain Masking Proxies & SSL: Now you can purchase both Domain Masking Proxies and SSL certificates for your domains. This feature ensures secure redirection while also masking the domain, allowing you to display branded websites without revealing your primary domain. The option is available alongside SSL purchase, providing full security and privacy for your domains.

Why it’s important:

  1. Protecting Email Deliverability
    Google & Outlook are increasingly becoming sophisticated at identifying connections between domains. This can hurt deliverability or trigger spam filters. Domain Masking Proxy hides these connections, making it harder for Google to associate domains and flag your emails as spam. Domain Masking Proxy creates a “smoke screen” that hides the fact that your domains are redirecting to your main domain.

  2. Improving Security and Trust with SSL
    SSL encrypts data and ensures HTTPS support, making your domain secure. Without SSL, users may see security warnings that hurt your email reputation. Google also favors secure websites. SSL builds trust and increases the likelihood of recipients clicking on your links.

Here’s the different options you can set up:

Infraforge offers three options for domain forwarding, each designed to serve a different purpose:

  1. Default Forwarding (Basic HTTP Forwarding)

    • Redirects traffic from your custom domain to your target URL using the HTTP protocol.

  2. SSL Redirection (Enhanced Security)

    • Automatically provides and manages SSL certificates for your custom domains.

    • Supports both HTTP and HTTPS protocols, performing permanent redirects to your target URL.

    • Ideal for secure redirection while maintaining transparency about the final destination.

  3. Domain Masking (URL Cloaking)

    • Displays your custom domain in the browser's address bar while showing content from your target website.

    • Supports both HTTP and HTTPS protocols.

    • Best for maintaining brand consistency and concealing the underlying platform.
