Reports: Tracking Statistics
Tracking statistics tell you how many people have opened your message, clicked on a tracked URL, or who have gone from one of your mailings through to other pages on your web site.
In order to have statistics about opens, you must set Track Opens to Yes in Mailings: New Mailing: Tracking. To have statistics about clickthroughs, you must insert clickable URLs while making content.
If you want to track clickstreams, you'll need to create a clickstream tag, and put it on every page you'd like to track on your web site.
Tracking Summary
This page provides an overview of clickthroughs, opens and clickstreams.
Finding a Mailing
Ten mailings for the list are displayed in Reports: Mailings: Tracking Statistics: Tracking Summary. Click on next to see the next ten mailings, previous to see the last ten. To view more than ten mailings at a time, click on Show More. Repeatedly clicking on Show More will show greater numbers of mailings at a time.
You may change the sorting order of the mailings by clicking the up or down triangles next to ID, Sent, Open, CT, CS, Created, or Status. By clicking the top triangle, the sort order will be ascending (a-z); clicking the bottom arrow makes the sort order descending (z-a).
The sort options are:
ID
The ID number ListManager has assigned this mailing.
Mailing Name
The name you have given this mailing.
Sent #
The number of recipients ListManager actually delivered messages to.
Open #
The number of recipients who opened the message using an email client which can read HTML. If a recipient opened the message in two different clients, or with a client and a web browser, two opens will be registered.
Open %
The percentage of recipients who opened the message using an email client which can read HTML.
CT #
The number of trackable URLs that have been clicked. This number may be greater than the number of opens or recipients if recipients click on a trackable URL multiple times, or if there are multiple trackable URLs in your message that recipients are clicking on.
CT %
The percentage of clicks versus recipients.
CS #
The number of web pages that have been visited by recipients of this message. This number may be greater than the number of opens or recipients if you put your clickstream tags on multiple pages, or if recipients visit your page multiple times.
If a recipient receives your message and goes to your web site directly without clicking on a trackable URL, the clickstream may not be recorded (depending on the recipient's email client settings).
CS %
The percentage of click streams versus recipients.
Created
The date the mailing was created.
Status
Whether a message is new, currently sending, performing a retry, or is done.
