FAQ

Email Permutator questions.

What is an email permutator?

A tool that builds every common email format from a person's name and company domain, such as john@, john.smith@ and jsmith@. It gives you candidates to verify when you only know someone's name.

How do I find which address is real?

Run the generated list through an email verification service, or use a mail server check. Verifying first protects your sender reputation and avoids bouncing cold outreach.

Why does this help link building?

Outreach is how guest posts, resource-page links and digital PR get placed. Reaching the right person by email is the first step, and often you only have a name and a company to work from.

Is this compliant with privacy rules?

Generating patterns is just string formatting and happens in your browser. How you contact people is your responsibility: follow anti-spam laws like CAN-SPAM and GDPR and always offer an opt-out.
