Contents of the Detailed Link report

The Detailed Link Report presents counts for email messages received, messages viewed, and click-throughs. For landing pages that are linked to the email, the report provides link click-through data. Response data for links in email and landing pages appear separately.

The contents of the Detail Link Report appear on multiple levels in a linked hierarchy. As you drill down through the report, each level of the report provides a narrower focus, ultimately showing results for a specific link by mailing instance.

The Detailed Link Report presents email and landing page link response data on the following levels. Report levels are also called dimensions.

  1. Mailing and Landing Pages
  2. Link Names
  3. Mailing Instances

Right-click on a mailing name or landing page name to drill down or drill up through the report.

You can also navigate up and down through the report using the reports toolbar in the upper right corner of the report window. Click in the left column of the report and use the drill up and drill down controls.

Mailings and Landing Pages

The Mailings and Landing Pages level presents results about each mailing for which Unica has received a message or link response. The report lists mailings individually. For mailings with multiple instances, the Mailings level summarizes the values for all instances under each mailing.

For email, you can view counts for message receipt, views, and link clicks for one or more instances of various mailings within a single campaign.

For landing pages, you can view counts for page views and click-through results for links on landing pages referenced by email messages sent as part of the mailing instances selected for the report.

Links

On the Links level, you see response results for each link in the mailing you selected in the Mailing level. For links that appear in multiple mailing instances, the report presents the sum of the values across the instances.

For email, the report lists the display names of links contained in the email message. The link name appears only if at least one email recipient clicked the link.

For landing pages, the report lists names of links on the landing page that were clicked at least once by an email recipient.

The report specifically identifies links associated with sharing your marketing email on social networks. The report identifies clicks when email recipients share a link to the email. The report also identifies clicks on the link that was shared and the social network where the click originated. The report identifies the link clicks as follows.

  • Clicks on the social share link in the email: Social_Traffic

    This number indicates on how many social networks the email recipient shared a link to the message.

  • Clicks in the various social networks on the link that was shared : <channel>_Share

    The channel is the specific social network. The number of clicks represents the number of other individuals who viewed your message after the email recipient shared a link to the message.

Note: If the email that contains the social sharing links also contains a View As Web Page link, the link clicks on the View As Web Page link are reported instead of Social_traffic. However, the report still reports results for clicks on the links shared on social networks as <channel>_Share.

When you click the link, the date and time for the mailing instance displays instead of the link name in the column heading. This additional drill-down link is a known behavior and does not affect the performance of the report. To return to the Mailing Instance level, right-click an instance and select Drill Up.
