2 Free Email Tracking Technique To Get Notified When Recipient Read Your Email

Read emailEver have a wish to know if the recipient read your email or not. Sometime you run an important campaign and you wish all your recipient should read your email but how will you know if they read it or not? There are two ways to know this – either by asking a feedback or by injecting a tracking technique.

Here I’m going to discuss about injecting a tracking technique. There are two types of technique we can use – one is by inputting tracking image and another by inputting tracking url.

Here are 3 websites that help you to track email reading by injecting tracking image:

1. whoreadme.com

2. getnotify.com

3. spypig.com

The problem with this technique is, it can’t always show you satisfying result as it depend on image. If recipient won’t download the image, for example gmail by default block image unless you ask gmail to unblock it, the service unable to show the result even your recipient read that mail.

Now talk about another technique but this technique need a little skill. You have to write the email in a way that encourage recipient to click on your given link. First you need to sign up with a url tracking website and then you need to convert a website link into a tracking link via that service. Now send a email with that tracking url and if the recipient click on that link, that mean s/he already read that. Not satisfying but still worth your attention. Here are some websites that allow you to track a link:

1. Bit.ly

2. Cli.gs

3. Tr.im

4. Kl.am

If you know some other technique then please share it in comment section.

    From so many reviews, using a tracking image for email tracking is not reliable since email user may opt-out using display image button in the email. Thus, the tracking image may not be read by GetNotify.

    Try MailTracking, an email tracking service that also offers an easy to use document tracking service for your MS Word / Excel / PowerPoint, Adobe PDF documents, and other OLE documents.

    In MailTracking, you just simply add .mailtracking.com on the recipients email address. For example, a tracked email to : 123@yahoo.com would look like 123@yahoo.com.mailtracking,com.

    No need of putting an image or web beacon into the body of your email. You may also opt to install a plug in to automatically add the tracking into the recipients address every time you shall send an email.

    I’ve tried their free version and i have a review article about it on my blog…

    Another way to track URLs is by utm tagging. I built a little tool to help with that AND it also appends specific email related information like the the recipient’s name and email address. Check it out and let me know if you think it is useful: http://www.superurlbuilder.com
