FAQ

How do I calculate total email impressions?

Multiply delivered emails by open rate and average opens per opener. Add any expected repeat engagement lift if you want a broader visibility estimate.

What counts as an email impression in a campaign?

An email impression usually means an opened or viewed email event. Repeated opens by the same recipient can create multiple impressions.

Why are email impressions higher than unique opens?

Impressions can be higher because one person may open the same email more than once or return to it later.

What is a good email impression rate for newsletters?

A good rate depends on industry and audience quality, but higher impressions per delivered email usually indicate stronger content relevance and repeat attention.

How can I increase email impressions without sending more emails?

Improve subject lines, preview text, segmentation, send timing, and content usefulness so more recipients open or return to the email.
