Keeping a close eye on your email analytics can help you better understand what's working and what's not so you can improve your emails and get the most out of every one.
Your individual email analytics answer questions like:
How many people opened my email?
How many times has it been opened?
Who clicked on the links in my email?
And more!
How to check your individual email analytics report in Flodesk
To view your individual email analytics:
Go to your Emails dashboard
Hover over any sent email (you find them under Status > Sent)
Click View Results.
Email analytics at a glance
On the next screen, you will find an At a glance view of your email, showing you:
What the subject line was
How many subscribers it was sent to
When it was sent out (date and time)
The graph view shows:
Sent—How many subscribers it was sent to
Delivered—How many subscriber email mailboxes it was delivered to
Opens—How many subscribers opened the email
Clicks—How many subscribers clicked on links in your email
You can click into each bar to see additional details on those metrics.
For example, drilling into the Sent column reveals the subscribers who were sent your email; when the email was delivered; and if it was opened and clicked.
With the Search and Sort functionality, you can quickly find a recipient's email address and view its analytics. Also, you can download a CSV report.
Using the View selector allows you to select specific subscribers who
Opened
Didn't open
Clicked
Didn't click your email.
Additionally, you can bulk select and manage your subscribers from this email report page. Hover your cursor above the Email column until you see the "Select all" tick box—or make a specific selection based on the View selector—and you can apply the following bulk actions:
Delete: This action deletes the subscriber record and selected subscriber(s) will be permanently removed from your entire list. This action cannot be undone.
Unsubscribe: This action unsubscribes the selected subscriber(s) from your entire list, from all segments. You will not be able to re-subscribe them unless they opt-in again. This action cannot be undone.
Add to segment: Choose the segment(s) from the drop-down you want to add the selected subscriber(s) to.
Remove from segment: Choose the segment(s) you want to remove the selected subscriber(s) from.
Email engagement charts
