The success of your email campaigns significantly depends on their content and the timing of their delivery. Based on comparative data from campaignmonitor.com, we have identified the ideal days for sending email campaigns.
With an average open rate of 17.6%, Tuesday is the ideal day for sending email campaigns. The open rate indicates how many recipients opened the campaign, measured as a percentage. It is calculated as follows: (Number of opened emails ÷ Number of delivered emails) * 100. Optimizing subject lines can further improve open rates.
With an average click rate of 2.6%, Tuesday and Thursday are the best days for a high click rate. The click rate measures the percentage of recipients who clicked on links or images in the campaign.

With an average unsubscribe rate of 0.1%, the unsubscribe rate is the lowest on all days. This rate indicates how many subscribers have removed themselves from the mailing list.
