Email statistics

Analyze the results of your email campaigns, including both individual messages and overall trends

In Pushwoosh, you can gain valuable insights into the performance of your emails at various levels. You can analyze the performance of each individual email, as well as understand the overall trends in your email campaigns.

Pushwoosh uses service email headers (sometimes called X-headers) to track email delivery, complaints, bounces, and analytics for troubleshooting purposes. These headers cannot be stripped out of your email messages on demand. However, some email clients may strip out X-headers of your message.

Track individual email message performance directly from the Journey canvas

You can monitor the performance of each email message within a customer journey directly on the Journey canvas.

To view statistics for a message, enable Show Metrics at the bottom of the canvas, or hover over the message element to see the stats.

Get comprehensive statistics for each message in Message History

To view more detailed statistics for your recent email messages, navigate to Statistics > Message History. There, locate the email you want to track and click on it to open a statistics page. This page displays general information about the email, including:

  • the date it was sent

  • the segment it was sent to

  • its status

  • Its subject

  • sender

  • the email address it was sent from

  • the email template used.

There are four tabs available on the statistics page, each providing unique insights based on the corresponding data:

  • Statistics

  • Recipients

  • Link tracking

  • Delivery report

Statistics tab

The Statistics tab presents a graph that can reveal the correlation between three metrics:

  • Number of emails sent

  • Total number of email opens, which indicates the overall volume of email opens

  • Number of emails opens on a specific day

In addition, you'll find data for the following metrics:

If complaint rate exceeds the acceptable level, we will stop sending messages from your account and suggest that you should check email contents and template. Note: complaint rate should always remain below 0.1% of emails sent.

If hard bounce rate exceeds the acceptable level, we will stop sending messages from your account and check your email database. Bounce rate should always remain below 5% of emails sent.

To avoid exceeding bounce rate limit, use the /getBouncedEmails API method to receive the list of bounced email addresses, and remove such addresses from your mailing list.

Recipient List tab

The Recipient List tab presents the complete list of users to whom the message was sent, along with their User IDs and device IDs (HWIDs), the date and time the message was sent and, if applicable, the date and time the message was opened.

In this tab, you can track the number of clicks on links in your received emails and view the calculated conversion rate for each link.

Please note that each unique URL is tracked as one link even if it's linked to several text parts, buttons, or images. Consider using UTM parameters to track clicks on the same link separately.

Delivery Report tab

On the Delivery Report tab, the overall numbers for each platform are shown along with explanations for any errors.

Track message statistics using API

To retrieve stats for a specific message via API, call the /getMsgStats method using the message code of the email you've sent.
