New Reporting Features: Click anywhere, filter instantly

We have launched a major reporting enhancement that makes it much easier to segment reporting data and send on-the-fly email marketing broadcasts to segmented data with one single click.

The instant segmentation applies to data in these reports:
  • Mass Email Opens
  • Mass Email Clicks
  • Mass Email Web Site Activity Tracking
  • Mass Email Unsubscribes
  • Mass Email Bounces
  • Transactional Email Opens
  • Transactional Email Clicks
  • Transactional Email Unsubscribes
  • Transactional Email Bounces
  • All Bounces
  • All Unsubscribes
Clicking almost any data point in one of these reports will result in an instant filter being created. The filtered data can then be used to send a new email campaign right away, or to create a new Email List.

Example 1, Filtering Click Tracking

For example, in our customer Popcorn Palace's account, here is a recent click tracking report:

After clicking on a URL in the click-tracking report, the filter is created, and a new report is generated:


Example 2, Filtering Web Site Analytics

In this example, we'll create an instant filter on the Web Site Activity Tracking report, a report that tracks a user's movement through your web site after clicking a link in an email campaign. In this example, we're going to use our own JangoMail account -- the one we use to email our own customers and prospects.

From the main Reports screen, click the number under "Page Views".

This gives you a list of all recipients and the web pages on your site that they visited. To filter down to just the recipients that created a Free Trial Account, or landed on https://www.jangomail.com/FreeTrial-Action.asp, click the URL anywhere in the report.
