Re: Guía de como optimizar las imágenes en tu blog

Hola Germán, me alegro que haya sido útil el artículo. Yo en realidad, el teléfono lo utilizo para tomar fotos, pero nunca para editar y optimizarlas, así que las traspaso a mi computador en la mayor resolución posible, y de ahi ya poder trabajar en optimizar la imagen, incluyendo el peso.

Yeah, they're been slowly redesigning the site but the editor feels like you're stock in the 90's!

No problem! =)

"Opened" means the people that opened the email and "Clicked" refers to clicks inside the email. If you select "opened" you're not considering if the person took action.

What I would do in this case is create a segment of the people that already registered to the webinar, that way you're able to only send additional campaigns to the ones that didn't.

The reminders for the people that signed up are sent by GoToWebinar, if that's the service you're using.

Does that make sense?

Can I see it? Can you post the link here?

So, what happens when you preview the page, do you see the actual code on the page or you don't see anything?

You should be able to use the code on any page/post without having to use a widget.

Sorry to ask this but I want to get it out of the way... When you're on the page editor to add your code, are you doing it on "Visual" or "Text"? (top right corner of the editor). When you add code you have to do it on "text" view.

Yaritza, it's normal to have higher open rates on smaller lists, but you still have to do a good job. So, congrats!

Mikee, in many businesses today, the person that becomes a customer is automatically added to a list without the opt-in process. It is acceptable. They are obviously segmented or put on a separate list.

But I think, the most important part is, how your business benefits from this. Is it possible to get repeated business or is this a one-time thing? Can doing things like offering a "discount on your next purchase" help increase revenue?

Welcome Beth! Very exciting, I hope to know more about how email is helping you now and how it improves along the course. Let me know if you have any questions.

But, can people buy the books directly from your site? Or you always send them to Amazon, B&N, etc?

Welcome Stacy! I just visited your site, very cool. I'm very curious about how your sales work and how email can help, I hope I get to know more.

I'm here if you have any questions. ;)

Oh wow, that sounds awesome, thanks man!

Hey Mikee, both businesses sound very exciting and site look great. I wanted to visit Playa del Carmen this summer but work got in the way. Next time, I guess...

Hey, I'm here for whatever you need!

Let's fix that. What is it?

So, your newsletters don't have any type of call-to-action?

Thanks Katie, I just fixed the links. I think they change them from time to time because this is the second time I have to fix this.

Re: Good Words vs. Bad Words in the Subject Line

Francisco Rosales — Mon, 03 Aug 2015 13:37:17 -0000

Here's what I do:
1) I write a few options
2) I run them through the tool to optimize, I usually change a word here and there
3) Once I decided on the best 2 options, I use them on a 10%-10% A/B Test and the winner is automatically triggered to the remaining 80%

Re: So, you didn’t open my email (Facepalm guaranteed)

Francisco Rosales — Mon, 03 Aug 2015 13:24:26 -0000

Timo, I don't think there is a specific type of email, but I'd definitely try this with the important ones, like promotional messages. I don't recommend sending this with every newsletter you send out because remember they're still receiving the first one, it might feel a little too much for them.

If the page you're using as a destination already existed, GA will go back 7 days in the past, obviously if you just created the page there is no data available but it should start tracking immediately.

Did you set up a "Goal" to track your conversions?
