Branded links are URLs that contain a brand name or related term and are used to associate your company with the content you send out to your audience. In addition to branding keeping you recognizable, it also directly impacts the deliverability of your campaigns. Branded domain links help prevent your content from landing in the spam folder.

An authenticated email address also helps keep you out of the spam inbox. Since spammers pretend to be legitimate senders, recipients use authentication to verify your identity as a sender. Receivers see authentication as a way of making sure you're who you claim to be.
