Still Receiving Emails After Unsubscribing?

Unsubscribing from emails should get you taken off the mailing list. But if you’re still getting some slip through, here’s what to do.

Have you ever unsubscribed from a company’s email list, only to receive another email from them the next day? If a sender has already annoyed you enough to hit the unsubscribe button, the last thing you want is to see their name pop up in your inbox almost instantly.

Why Am I Still Receiving Emails After Unsubscribing?

Unsubscribing should be the hassle-free way to stop receiving unwanted emails, but it doesn’t always do the trick. There are several reasons you might continue to receive emails from a company, even after unsubscribing:

  1. You’re signed up to multiple email lists: Many companies will try to sign you up for multiple email lists (marketing, news, customer service, etc.), which means you have to unsubscribe from all of them to stop receiving any emails from them.
  2. It takes time to update email lists: Hitting the unsubscribe button doesn’t instantly remove you from an email list. Companies have to update their lists, and this can take time, depending on the system they use and their inclination to act quickly.
  3. Technical issues can happen: While the chances are relatively slim, technical problems do happen. For example, the company could break something during an update or their email system might experience downtime, failing to unsubscribe anyone during such periods.
  4. The company needs to send certain emails: If you’re still buying from the company or using their products, they’ll need to send certain types of email–no matter how much you unsubscribe: transactional emails, T&Cs updates, pricing changes, etc.
  5. Some companies ignore unsubscribe requests: No, it’s not fair, but some companies simply don’t play by the rules.

While none of these reasons makes it any less annoying that you’re still receiving emails, they can help you take actionable steps to protect your inbox. Before we go any further, though, make sure you only unsubscribe from emails you recognize–never unsubscribe from suspected spam emails.

How to Stop Unsubscribed Companies Sending You More Emails

Now you know the main reasons you can still receive emails from a company after unsubscribing, you can take steps to address them.

1. Check Your Email Subscription Settings

The first thing to do if you’re still receiving emails after unsubscribing is to check whether you’re signed up to multiple email lists. If you have an account with the company, sign in to your account and check your email settings or preferences in the back end of the system.

For example, if you’re receiving a bunch of emails from Instagram, log into your account and click Settings and privacy > Email notifications to change your email preferences.

If you don’t have an account with the company in question, go back to one of the emails they’ve sent you and cycle through their unsubscribing process again. Make sure you click the unsubscribe link in their email, not the one in your email client.

As you repeat the unsubscribe cycle, look out for anything that shows you’re signed up for multiple lists: checkboxes, toggles, etc. Read every step of the unsubscribe process carefully for anything that suggests you’re signed up for other lists or will continue to receive certain types of email.

For example, if you’re still using a company’s software product, you’ll continue to receive emails for updates on pricing, purchase confirmations, etc.

Also, keep an eye out for links to the company’s privacy policy or anything related to email practices that could explain why you’re still receiving emails. You might even see some small print explaining why you’ll still receive occasional emails or that it takes up to 24 to 48 hours for your email address to be removed from their lists.

Hopefully, repeating the unsubscribe process will provide the answers you need. If it doesn’t, head to the company’s website and take a look at their privacy policy on email communication.

2. Wait a Day or Two for Settings to Change

Most companies use email marketing systems to automate communications. These software tools automatically send emails to recipients and handle a range of other tasks, including unsubscribes. Some of these systems will update email lists as soon as you hit the unsubscribe button, but many don’t.

It could take anywhere between 24 and 48 hours for an email system to update its contact lists. This means you’ll continue to receive emails from the sender until their system has run the next update cycle.

In an ideal world, companies will inform you of this during the unsubscribe process, but many don’t. In fairness, a lot of companies may not realize there’s a delay or even pay much attention to subscription requests. Either way, it’s always worth waiting 24 to 48 hours after unsubscribing before you take any further action.

3. Report As Spam If You’re Still Receiving Email

If you’ve waited 24 to 48 hours after unsubscribing, and you’ve done everything possible to make sure you’re not signed up to other email lists, it’s time to take stronger action. By this point, any company that’s still sending you unwanted emails is spamming you, so you should start marking any further emails as spam.

If you’re using Gmail, you can do this by selecting the checkbox next to any spam emails, and then click the Report spam button.

This won’t stop further emails coming through, but every spam report is another black mark on their email sender reputation with ISPs. This means more of their emails will head straight to people’s spam folders and their email marketing efforts will suffer. So, even though it’s annoying to keep dealing with these emails, every spam report you submit is making a difference.

4. Block the Sender to Stop Receiving Email

If you reach a point where you simply want to stop receiving further emails from a particular sender, you can block them completely. The easiest way to do this in Gmail is to click the three-dot icon at the top of an email and select Block [sender name] from the dropdown menu.

Emails

Keep in mind that this only blocks the exact email address used to send the email in question. So, if the company uses a bunch of email addresses for different types of emails, you won’t block them all.

A more robust method is to create a custom email filter. You can do this in Gmail by clicking the gear icon (Settings) > See all settings > Filters and blocked addresses.

Emails

Image by https://www.makeuseof.com/

Next, click on the Create a new filter link and this will bring up the following box:

This time, you want to type in the domain name of the email sender into the From field, which is normally the text following the @ symbol. For example, emailprefix@domain.com. This will block all emails from the domain, so it’ll block anything sent from other people or departments at the same company.

Unfortunately, this still won’t protect you from companies that keep switching domain names to get past spam filters. However, you can type the company name into the Includes the words field and this will help filter out any emails that include the company’s name (which should be all of them).

Again, this isn’t foolproof, but it should deal with the vast majority of emails from legitimate companies.

5. Raise a Complaint With the Company

Hopefully, the steps we’ve covered will help you deal with any unwanted emails that you’ve tried to unsubscribe from. That being said, you might want to contact the company in question to make them aware of the issue.

Advertisement

Broadly speaking, companies are legally obliged to respect any subscription requests you make, and it might help to remind or make them aware of this. Point them in the direction of the CAN-SPAM Act to make them aware you also know they’re legally obliged to respect your wishes.

As mentioned earlier, it’s possible to continue receiving emails due to a system error or legitimate mistake. Raising the issue with a company could help them identify an unknown problem and resolve it.

They might even inform you that a temporary (and fixed) issue kept you on an email marketing list. In this case, manually removing you from an email list on their end of the system could resolve the problem for you.

Sometimes, Unsubscribing Isn’t Enough

As annoying as it is, unsubscribing from an email list isn’t always enough to stop receiving emails from a sender. Sometimes, they intentionally make it harder than it should be to remove your email address from all of their marketing lists. In other cases, they might not understand the rights and wrongs of email marketing–or even care about them.

Either way, it always helps to know the tools Gmail and other email clients give you to take control over your inbox and the emails reaching it.

Enhancing Mapping Accuracy with LiDAR Ground Control Targets

Published

on

By

LiDAR Ground Control Targets

In geospatial data collection, surveyors use LiDAR ground control targets as vital tools that enhance the accuracy of aerial surveys and mapping projects. Whether they apply this technology in environmental monitoring, urban planning, or construction, users know that LiDAR produces highly detailed, precise models of the Earth’s surface.

However, to maximize this accuracy, integrating ground control targets into the process is essential. In this article, we’ll explore what LiDAR ground control targets are, why practitioners consider them important, and how they contribute to more accurate mapping.

LiDAR Ground Control Targets

What Are LiDAR Ground Control Targets?

Surveyors place LiDAR ground control targets as physical reference points on the ground during a LiDAR survey. These targets serve as georeferenced markers that allow surveyors to align LiDAR data with real-world coordinates. Typically, surveyors position these targets in visible locations that the LiDAR sensor mounted on the drone or aircraft can clearly detect.

Surveyors use different types of ground control targets, including reflective targets, painted markers, and geodetic targets. The choice of type depends on factors such as the survey’s scale, the required accuracy, and the terrain they survey.

How Do LiDAR Ground Control Targets Work?

LiDAR technology uses laser pulses to scan the ground and capture a wide range of data, including elevation, shape, and distance. However, the data collected by LiDAR sensors needs to be aligned with real-world coordinates to ensure its accuracy. This is where LiDAR ground control targets come in.

Advertisement

Georeferencing LiDAR Data

When LiDAR sensors capture data, they record it as a point cloud, an array of data points representing the Earth’s surface. To make sense of these data points, surveyors need to assign them precise coordinates. Ground control targets provide reference points, allowing surveyors to georeference point cloud data and ensure that LiDAR data aligns with existing maps and models.

By placing LiDAR ground control targets at specific locations on the survey site, surveyors can perform adjustments to correct discrepancies in the data caused by factors such as sensor calibration, flight altitude, or atmospheric conditions.

Why Are LiDAR Ground Control Targets Essential for Accurate Mapping?

LiDAR technology is incredibly powerful, but the accuracy of the data depends largely on the quality of the ground control points used. Here are the key reasons why LiDAR ground control targets are essential for obtaining precise mapping results:

1. Improved Geospatial Accuracy

Without ground control targets, LiDAR data is essentially “floating” in space, meaning its position isn’t aligned with real-world coordinates. This can lead to errors and inaccuracies in the final map or model. By placing LiDAR ground control targets at known geographic coordinates, surveyors can calibrate the LiDAR data and improve its geospatial accuracy.

For large projects or those involving multiple data sources, ensuring that LiDAR data is properly georeferenced is critical. Ground control targets help ensure the survey data integrates seamlessly with other geographic information systems (GIS) or mapping platforms.

2. Reduction of Measurement Errors

LiDAR ground control targets help mitigate errors caused by various factors, such as:

  • Sensor misalignment: Minor inaccuracies in the LiDAR sensor’s position or angle can cause discrepancies in the data.
  • Aircraft or drone movement can slightly distort the sensor’s collected data.
  • Environmental conditions: Weather, temperature, and atmospheric pressure can all affect the LiDAR signal.

By using ground control targets, surveyors can compensate for these errors, leading to more precise and reliable data.

3. Support for Large-Scale Projects

For larger mapping projects, multiple LiDAR scans might be conducted from different flight paths or at different times. Ground control targets serve as common reference points, ensuring that all collected data can be merged into a single coherent model. This is particularly useful for projects involving vast areas like forests, mountain ranges, or large urban developments.

How to Choose the Right LiDAR Ground Control Targets

Choosing the right LiDAR ground control targets depends on several factors, including the project’s size, the terrain, and the required accuracy. Here are some things to consider:

Size and Visibility

The size of the target should be large enough to be easily detectable by the LiDAR sensor from the air. Targets that are too small or poorly placed can lead to inaccurate data or missed targets.

Material and Durability

Ground control targets must have enough durability to withstand weather conditions and remain stable throughout the surveying process. Surveyors often use reflective materials to ensure that the LiDAR sensor can clearly detect the target, even from a distance.

Advertisement

Geospatial Accuracy

For high-accuracy projects, surveyors must place ground control targets at precise, known locations with accurate geospatial coordinates. They should use a GPS or GNSS system to measure and mark the exact position of the targets.

Conclusion

LiDAR ground control targets play a pivotal role in ensuring the accuracy of aerial surveys and LiDAR mapping projects. By providing precise reference points for geo referencing and adjusting LiDAR data, these targets reduce errors and improve the overall quality of the final model. Whether you’re working on a small-scale project or a large-scale survey, integrating ground control targets into your LiDAR workflow is essential for achieving high-precision results.

The right ground control targets, when placed correctly and properly measured, can make the difference between reliable, actionable data and inaccurate measurements that undermine the entire survey.

By understanding the importance of these targets and how they function in the context of LiDAR surveys, you’ll be better prepared to tackle projects that demand accuracy and precision.

Scalable Web Application Development: Strategies for Growth

Published

on

Web Application Development

Growth sounds exciting until systems start creaking under pressure. Many businesses experience this moment right after success shows up more users, more data, more “quick fixes” quietly holding everything together.

This is where web application development stops being a technical choice and becomes a strategic one. Scalable web applications create structure amid growth, replacing fragile workflows with flexible systems built to evolve.

Business scalability isn’t about guessing the future; it’s about preparing for it. A well-designed web application ensures growth feels intentional, not chaotic and that’s a difference leaders notice fast.

Web Application Development

Understanding Business Scalability (Without the Buzzwords)

Scalability simply means handling growth without breaking what already works. More customers shouldn’t slow systems down, and increased data shouldn’t create confusion. True scalability supports growth in users, operations, revenue, and decision-making—simultaneously.

Many businesses grow in size but not in structure, leading to inefficiencies that quietly drain momentum. Scalable businesses anticipate change rather than react to it. Web applications enable this by offering centralized access, consistent performance, and flexible architecture. When scalability is baked in early, growth feels smoother and far less stressful than expected.

Advertisement

Why Traditional Software Fails at Scale

Legacy software often works well—until it doesn’t. Desktop tools, spreadsheets, and rigid systems struggle once teams expand or workflows become complex. Updates take longer, integrations break, and manual work multiplies.

What once felt efficient slowly becomes an obstacle. Traditional software rarely adapts gracefully to modern demands like remote access, real-time collaboration, or data-driven decisions. Businesses then rely on patches rather than solutions.

Web applications solve this by design, offering accessibility, adaptability, and centralized control—without the constant fear of outgrowing the tools that once felt “good enough.”

Role of Web Application Development in Scalability

Web application development provides the foundation for sustainable growth. Unlike static systems, web apps evolve alongside business needs. Features can be added incrementally, performance can scale with demand, and user access remains consistent across locations.

A reliable Web Application Development Company builds architecture that supports future expansion instead of limiting it. Modular design, secure data handling, and cloud readiness allow businesses to scale without disruption. Growth no longer requires replacing systems—it simply extends them. That flexibility turns web applications into long-term business assets, not short-term technical solutions.

Advertisement

Cloud-Based Web Apps: Scale Without Panic

Cloud infrastructure removes many traditional growth barriers. Resources expand automatically as demand increases, preventing performance dips during traffic spikes or seasonal surges. Storage, processing power, and availability scale seamlessly without costly hardware upgrades.

Cloud-based web applications also support remote teams and global users without added complexity. Costs remain predictable, aligned with actual usage instead of guesswork. Businesses gain resilience along with flexibility, ensuring growth moments feel manageable rather than overwhelming. With cloud-backed web applications, scaling becomes a controlled process—not an emergency response.

How an AI-Powered Web App Accelerates Growth

An AI-Powered Web App brings intelligence into scalability. Automation reduces manual effort as operations expand, while predictive analytics anticipate demand and performance needs. AI-driven personalization improves user engagement even as customer bases grow larger.

Decision-making becomes faster, guided by real-time insights instead of assumptions. These applications learn continuously, improving efficiency over time rather than adding complexity. Growth doesn’t require proportional increases in effort or staffing. Instead, AI-enhanced systems handle scale quietly in the background, allowing teams to focus on strategy instead of operational strain.

Custom Web Applications vs SaaS Tools

SaaS tools offer speed, but customization often hits a ceiling. Businesses adapt their workflows to the software instead of the other way around. Custom web applications align precisely with internal processes, supporting scalability without compromise. Data ownership, tailored features, and seamless integrations offer long-term value beyond subscription convenience.

Advertisement

As businesses mature, flexibility becomes more valuable than quick deployment. Custom solutions grow alongside operations, avoiding costly migrations later. Choosing custom web development often reflects a shift from short-term efficiency to long-term scalability and control.

Security and Compliance at Scale

Growth increases responsibility—especially around data. As user numbers rise, so do security risks and compliance requirements. Scalable web applications embed security into their architecture rather than layering it on later. Role-based access, encrypted data handling, and audit-ready systems protect both users and businesses.

Regulatory compliance becomes easier when systems are designed for transparency and control. Strong security practices build trust, which becomes increasingly valuable as visibility grows. Scalability without security isn’t progress—it’s exposure waiting to happen.

Integration Power: Scaling an Entire Ecosystem

Businesses rarely operate on a single platform. CRMs, ERPs, payment systems, and analytics tools must communicate seamlessly. Web applications act as the central connector, eliminating data silos and manual transfers. A capable Web Application ensures integrations remain stable as systems expand.

Scalable integrations improve efficiency across departments while maintaining data accuracy. When applications work together, growth feels coordinated instead of fragmented. Integration-driven scalability allows businesses to expand operations without multiplying complexity behind the scenes.

Advertisement

Performance Optimization for High-Growth Businesses

Performance directly affects user trust. Slow load times or frequent downtime become more noticeable as traffic increases. Scalable web applications prioritize optimization through caching, load balancing, and efficient architecture. These measures ensure consistent performance regardless of user volume.

Growth shouldn’t degrade experience—it should enhance it. High-performing systems support confidence, credibility, and retention. Performance optimization isn’t a luxury; it’s a necessity for businesses expecting sustained growth. Reliable applications quietly support expansion while users simply enjoy smooth interactions.

Real-World Examples of Scalable Web Applications

Many successful businesses didn’t start with massive systems—they grew into them. Early-stage web applications designed with scalability in mind adapt more easily to success. Features expand, integrations deepen, and data volumes increase without disrupting operations.

Teams avoid painful rebuilds because the foundation supports evolution. Growth brings challenges, but scalable systems prevent those challenges from becoming crises. Real-world scalability often looks boring on the surface—and that’s exactly the point. Stability behind growth is the ultimate success indicator.

Choosing the Right Development Partner

Scalability depends as much on mindset as technology. The right partner designs for future needs, not just immediate requirements. Experience with architecture planning, performance optimization, and  App development matters. Strong partners ask strategic questions early, preventing costly adjustments later.

Advertisement

Collaboration extends beyond launch into continuous improvement. Businesses benefit most from development teams that understand growth patterns, not just code execution. Choosing wisely ensures scalability feels intentional rather than reactive.

Common Mistakes That Hurt Scalability

Many scalability issues begin with short-term thinking. Building only for current needs limits future flexibility. Overcomplicated designs slow growth, while ignoring performance early creates hidden bottlenecks. Another common mistake involves delaying security until problems arise.

Scalability requires balance—simple where possible, robust where necessary. Web applications thrive when architecture supports change rather than resisting it. Avoiding these mistakes early saves time, cost, and frustration later, making growth far more sustainable.

Conclusion

Scalability rarely happens by accident. Businesses that grow smoothly invest early in systems designed to evolve. Web application development provides the flexibility, performance, and control needed to support long-term expansion. With the right architecture and development approach, growth becomes manageable rather than chaotic.

Partnering with a reliable Web Application Development ensures technology supports ambition instead of limiting it. Scalability isn’t about chasing growth—it’s about being ready when growth arrives.
