Click to Open Rate (CTOR) is the percentage of people who open an email campaign and also click on a link within that campaign. CTOR compares the number of unique clicks to the number unique opens of an email. The CTOR calculates the effectiveness of an email campaign.
How do I calculate my click-to-open rate?
You can calculate your click-to-open rate by taking the number of clicks, dividing that number by the number of opens, and multiplying the result by 100. The resulting number is your CTOR percentage.
What is a good click-to-open rate?
Across the board, average email open rates are between 15-20%. The click-through rate will average around 2.5% and the average click-to-open rate between 20-30%. Any less and you should consider segmenting your email list.
What is the difference between open rate and click-to-open rate?
