Available Information (columns of the table)
This table lists all link categories in the message and provides information about recipients and clicks. Links that are not assigned to a specific category are listed under unset.
The link categories are sorted according to Accepted Rate or CTR. Click on the corresponding label in the grey bar to change the sorting method.
Category: This column shows the link categories used for the links in the message. Link categories are automatically assigned using expression language and based on defined criteria.
Number of Links: This column displays the number of links that belong to the link category within the message.
Accepted/Rate: This column displays the number and rate of recipients of a certain link category in the message.
Accepted: This is the number of messages containing this specific link category that were accepted by the email provider's Message Transfer Agent (MTA). This includes messages delivered to the inbox, spam, or junk folders. Accepted messages are thus all messages that arrived at the email client-server and did not produce a bounce.
Accepted links per link category are calculated as follows:Accepted = Messages Sent with this link category − Bounced messages with this link category
Rate: This entry displays the percentage of messages containing this specific link category that were accepted by the receiving Message Transfer Agent (MTA). This includes emails delivered to the inbox, spam, or junk folders. Accepted messages are thus all messages that arrived at the email client-server and did not produce a bounce.
This is calculated as follows:Accepted Rate = Accepted messages with this link category / Messages Sent with this link category
Clickers/CTR: This entry displays the number and rate of clicks on a certain link category in the message.
Clickers: This entry displays the number of recipients who have clicked on links of this link category in the message. If a recipient clicks more than one link of a certain link category in the message, this only counts one time. The statistics analysis of link clicks is available under the Link Analysis (tab).
CTR (Click Through Rate): The number of recipients who click on a link with this link category in a message divided by the number of accepted messages containing this link category.
This is calculated as follows:CTR = Clickers with this link category / Accepted messages with this link category
Total Clicks: This entry displays the total number of clicks on any link in this link category.
