In a nutshell, ‘Email traffic’ is any traffic that comes to your website from a link in an email.
Naturally, it is only possible to generate this type of traffic if you send out email mailers to your customers, suppliers, or newsletter sign-ups.
Looking at your email traffic can help you score how beneficial your email campaigns are which in turn can help you to make measured improvements.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I see my website’s email traffic?
Head to your website’s Google Analytics account and check out the ‘Acquisitions’ section.
You will also get a fair amount of data from the email platform itself as they usually have their own built in analytics.
How do I improve my email traffic metrics?
You can improve your email traffic metrics by...
- Increasing the number of email campaigns you send out
- Optimising your email campaigns for higher conversions – perhaps try some A/B testing
- Ensuring the landing page for your email campaigns is relevant and interesting for the intended individual
- Check your subscriber list and ensure that everyone on that list is accurate, interested in your brand, and has subscribed to your list voluntarily
- Segment your mailing list to allow you to target specific audiences for particular products/services
Should I buy a Mailing List?
