General email performance
Tracking general email performance in Sendigram helps you understand the overall health of your campaigns. Instead of focusing only on individual sends, you can measure long-term trends, compare results, and refine your email marketing strategy.
1. What Is General Email Performance?
- A summary view of your campaigns' results over time.
- Combines key metrics such as deliverability, engagement, and subscriber behavior.
- Helps answer big-picture questions like:
- Are open and click rates improving?
- Is deliverability stable or declining?
- Are unsubscribes and complaints within safe limits?
2. Where to View General Performance in Sendigram
- Go to Statistics → General metrics.
- Select the reporting period.
- Review aggregated stats across all campaigns:
- Sent emails
- Deliverability rate
- Open rate
- Bounce rate
- Click rate
- Spam rate
- Unsubscribe rate
3. Key Metrics to Watch
- Deliverability Rate = Delivered + Sent × 100
- Shows if your emails are reaching inboxes. Aim for > 98%.
- Open Rate = Opens + Delivered × 100
- Reflects subject line, preheader, and sender name effectiveness.
- Click Rate = Clicks + Delivered × 100
- Measures how engaging your email content is.
- Click-to-Open Rate (CTOR) = Clicks + Opens × 100
- Shows how many people who opened were motivated to click.
- Bounce Rate = Bounces + Sent × 100
- High bounce rate signals list quality issues.
- Spam Rate = Complaints + Delivered × 100
- Keep this below 0.1% to avoid inbox penalties.
- Unsubscribe Rate = Unsubscribes + Delivered × 100
- Indicates if your frequency or content is off-balance.
4. Using General Performance Data
- Identify trends: Compare performance over weeks or months.
- Spot issues early: Rising bounce or complaint rates warn of deliverability problems.
- Benchmark performance: Compare results against industry averages.
- Optimize campaigns: Use insights to improve subject lines, targeting, and content.
5. Best Practices
- Track performance regularly, not just after big campaigns.
- Segment by audience type (e.g., newsletters vs. promotions) to spot differences.
- Clean your lists to reduce bounce rates.
- Run A/B tests to improve weak metrics.
- Use Email Checker and heatmaps to refine quality and engagement.
