Email Deliverability Analysis

Email deliverability analysis examines the factors affecting whether Customer.io emails reach recipients' inboxes. It encompasses bounce rates, spam complaint rates, domain reputation, and authentication status to assess and improve the technical health of your email programme.

Why email deliverability analysis matters for Customer.io users

No engagement metric matters if your emails do not reach the inbox. Deliverability issues silently undermine every campaign, workflow, and broadcast in Customer.io. A gradual decline in deliverability can erode your entire messaging programme before it shows up in open rates.

Positioning deliverability analysis at the foundation of your metric tree ensures technical email health is monitored before engagement metrics. When deliverability drops, your tree shows the cascading impact on opens, clicks, conversions, and revenue.
