This little feature slipped by me. After all releases, I scoot over to the Treasure chest to see if there are any new goodies.

I really like this new one, Email Preview/ Link Stats. I think it will be great for my team to preview their previously sent emails and see what people clicked on. Just another way of providing information easier to the end user. I love it!

Thanks, I just enabled this in our account also and its Awesome!

One thing I noticed though is if I have 3 links in an email that go to the same place it has the exact stats for all of them. I am going to try adding a query string to the links next time to see if they are differentiated.

I think the reason it slipped by us is that I can't find anywhere where they ever told us about it.  What release did that come with?

@ Adam: thanks for letting us know about this cool feature.

@ Ian: You're right: if same url is pasted several times, stats are the same for all locations.
I wish I was able to see if url behind button is better than the one in body or the one behind visual. Can you let us know if your workaround works?

Thanks

@ Craigrrr: didn't even recall having read something about landing page comments and I think I have subscribed to all the possible alerts ! :)

Landing page comments was in 'new release' notes several months ago, but I had not ever even heard of the link stats feature until this thread.

I think Ian's idea is the correct one to best use this feature

hi all, I have just tested and this is working.

I have a question though. If we are using same html for various campaigns, will the stats apply for one campaign or for summation of campaigns? I did 2 real campaigns using partially same audience and it seems that stats have been added...

This would be AWESOME to have for landing pages as well.

@ Drew: apart from the form, do you often have other CTAs on your landing page? the feature only works if there are urls...
February 20, 2013
@ Cecile: Definitely. On most of our follow-up landing pages, we have other CTAs after filling out the form. For content downloads, it might be related content or free product trials, for events it might be "spread the word" or "refer a friend", etc. Below is an example that would serve perfectly.
