Thanks for the guide dude... Much needed as I'm beginning to use SES
Gosh, your guide is so big that I guess you'll get a lot of SEO traffic at least :)
You can post the same on dev.to, looks like a good place for such content too
Why dev.to instead of owning the content?
I believe you can add your own page as the canonical url to a dev.to blog post.
So you can get some of the SEO benefit while using dev.to to get more engagement.
Using that and a note at the top of the post to link to the original post and it might be worth it.
Ah I see. I didn't think of the backlinks. Yeah you are right.
Thanks. Yeah, I will do it, thanks a lot.
This is really great! How to get approval from the SES team I tried 2 times but got rejected. Any suggestion on that?
I noticed the following things help:
Request as low as possible daily volume send. 500-1000/emails day should be enough for a start for almost any app that is just starting out. You can try 2k maybe. But I suggest don't go higher.
Tell them you will handle bounces/complaints via SNS and your app will respect that(and really do it).
That's on top of my head. Low hanging fruit so to say.
Later you can request for bigger sending volume.
The rate of sending 10/sec should be plenty. Don't believe an average app can send more anyway :D
Nice work 👏 learn, build and deploy
