6 Tips for Writing Better “Subject” Lines

Like the From field the Subject line is one of the most important components of a successful newsletter sending campaign. Together with the From line, the Subject line determines whether the recipient will open an email, delete it immediately, save file it for future reading, or report and/or filter it as spam. Plus, many anti-spam filters use the Subject lines to separate good emails from spam. So, because of a poorly written Subject the email may not even reach the recipient’s inbox in the first place.

Below are the tips to write Subject lines that produce higher open and click-through rates:

Email with Higher Open and Click-through Rates Wins

Email marketers often use a technique that implies segmenting the email list and sending different versions of the same email to each segment. Such split tests help compare the effectiveness of different subject lines, creative approaches, offers, etc. During the next campaign marketers often send the version that had either the highest open or click-through rate (or both) believing that this version is more effective. However, the true is that the email that resulted in a higher open or click-through rate may not be the version that produces the best results. In some cases the email with a lower click-through rate can lead to a higher number of transactions because it was of greater interest but to fewer people.
