Optimized subscriber engagement scoring
On October 11, we made two updates to how we calculate engagement to provide even more insight and accuracy.
-
Ignored campaigns
We improved the accuracy of how many campaigns each subscriber is ignoring. This change reduced the engagement rating for many previous 3-, 4- and 5-rated subscribers. Subscribers who were previously included in these segments but who have now dropped to a rating of 2 are ignoring many, most, or all campaigns without any opens or clicks. -
Soft bounces
We also optimized our algorithms to reduce the effect soft bounces have on engagement scores. Now, only the Mailbox Full soft bounce type will count as negative behavior. Mailbox Full will only count negatively after three occurrences.
These changes will be reflected on the Subscriber Insights page and in your segment counts when you segment by engagement rating. The engagement score for subscribers who ignore campaigns will now tend to be lower. The engagement score for subscribers who have previously soft bounced will now tend to be higher. This results in a more accurate set of engaged subscribers.
Email campaigns
Importing files
When you import a file, we’re now showing the CSV file requirements to Mac and PC users onscreen. We’ll even show them here:
| File format |
MS-DOS Comma Separated (.csv) |
| File format, if your content contains diacriticals | CSV UTF-8 (Comma delimited) (.csv) |
| File name | No spaces or special characters |
| Column names | No forward (/) or back (\) slashes or quotation ("") marks |
After importing, we also fixed up an issue where subscriber issues displayed twice on the List Summary page after they were overridden.
Creating and editing emails
We’ve moved away from the term, Modern Editor. You’ll now see Use the WordFly editor when you create an email and Click to edit when you edit.
Reporting improvements
We optimized the Pages results tab, so the data will load more efficiently. In A/B Campaigns, totals for unique opens and clicks on the Campaign Summary page now match the total individual results for A and B in each category. We also resolved an issue where the exported Events by Campaign file did not include data in certain cases. We made a few design updates, too.
