- CLICK THROUGH RATE: fairly easy to understand, and they measure how many people click the links in your emails.Again, average click rates vary by industry, but typically anything over 10% is good. A strong call to action an easy and effective way to increase your CTR
- CONVERSION RATE: is the percentage of recipients who clicked on the link and completed the action you desire from them, whether it’s a purchase or submission. Make sure you send a welcome email, set up a drip, lead-nurturing campaign to get a higher conversion rate.
- BOUNCE RATE: Occurs when you send a message to an email that no longer exists. If your bounce rate reaches 2-3%, you may want to consider cleaning up your email list.
- UNSUBSCRIBE RATE: refers to how many people unsubscribe from each email you send. Avoiding spam and providing related and helpful content to your audience is the best way to get a low unsubscribe rate.
