How to evaluate email performance

Campaign Open Rates

Open rates vary largely on a range of factors like the size of your list and method of collecting email addresses but, generally speaking, a healthy open rate is in the 20%-40% range. If your open rates are above that, then your campaigns are well optimized. If they’re below that range, there’s likely some opportunity for improvement.

Campaign Click Rate

Your click-through rate can vary depending on a range of factors like the size of your list and the content of your email, depending on the but, generally, a healthy email click-through rate is in 15% range.

Campaign Click-To-Open Rate

Click-to-open rate is determined by taking the unique clicks divided by unique opens. It tells you the percentage of recipients who opened the email, how many clicked, and is a leading indicator of the value of the content that you’re sending.

Unsubscribe Rates

By evaluating unsubscribe rates, you can quickly see if the content that you’re sending and the frequency of your communications are valuable to your audience. Unsubscribe rates less than 2% are within industry norms.
