Delivery Rate<\/h4>\n<p>This metric is important for tracking the health of your email list.<br \/>\nA high delivery rate means you&#8217;ve reached your target demographic. If your delivery rate is low, focus on building a strong subscriber list.<br \/>\nDelivery Rate = Delivery Rate = (Number of emails sent \u2013 Number of emails bounced) \u00f7 (Number of emails sent) x 100<br \/>\nAdding an email subscription form to your home page is the most common way to grow your list. Apply double opt-in to increase its integrity.<\/p>\n<h4>2. Open Rate<\/h4>\n<p>A high open rate indicates that your subscribers read your emails.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s the most accurate way to assess your subject line&#8217;s efficiency. So, check and adjust it frequently.<br \/>\nOpen rate = (Number of emails open) \/ (Number of emails sent \u2013 Number of emails bounced) x 100<br \/>\nHow to improve: Perform A\/B testing on your subject lines. You can learn a lot about people&#8217;s motivations and how to best inspire action by constantly A\/B testing and reviewing open rates.<\/p>\n<h4>3. Bounce Rate<\/h4>\n<p>Hard and soft bounces are the two types of bounces. Soft bounces are usually caused by a server malfunction. Incorrect or non-existent email addresses cause hard bounces.<br \/>\nA high bounce rate reduces source credibility, sending your emails to spam. And losing reputation as a sender can be difficult to regain.<br \/>\nBounce rate = (number of emails bounced \/ emails sent) x 100<br \/>\nE-mail your previous six-month open rate subscribers. Also, avoid spam words to reduce the number of spam emails.<\/p>\n<h4>4. Conversion Rate<\/h4>\n<p>The conversion rate is the number of people who clicked and then did something.<br \/>\nFor example, you sent an email inviting your subscribers to a Halloween sale.<br \/>\nThe campaign&#8217;s conversion rate indicates how many people clicked on the link and bought something.<br \/>\nCalculate: Email conversion rate = (Number of people who took action \/ total emails sent) x 100<br \/>\nWhat to do: Put compelling copy in the button or link that takes readers to your website. Make those buttons big and colorful.<br \/>\nKeep the CTA short and sweet. Give your subscribers a sense of urgency to increase conversions.<\/p>\n<h4>5. CTR<\/h4>\n<p>The percentage of recipients who click on your email&#8217;s links.<br \/>\nCTR tells you how likely people are to engage with your email&#8217;s content. It also shows their interest in your company.<br \/>\nCTR = (number of emails clicked \/ number of emails delivered) x 100<br \/>\nOrganize your lists by topic to maximize CTR. It may entail more emailing. But it will also increase website traffic and reduce unsubscribes.<br \/>\nLimit the number of links or action buttons if you aren&#8217;t promoting a sale or sharing resources. Ensure you only use CTAs for the most important things.<\/p>\n<h4>6. Total ROI<\/h4>\n<p>This metric shows how much profit you made per dollar invested. If a campaign&#8217;s goal is profit, calculating ROI is critical.<br \/>\nEmail earns $38 for every $1 spent, according to 2020. Email marketing is the most effective digital marketing strategy, with a 3,800% ROI.<br \/>\nOverall ROI = (Revenue \u2013 Campaign Cost) \/ (Campaign Cost) * 100<br \/>\nWhat to do: Categorize your list. Marketers claim that segmenting email campaigns increased revenue by 760 percent.<br \/>\nAlso, customize. Customization increases email CTR by 14% and conversions by 10%.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
