    Hi to all email marketers. I am looking for some numbers when it comes to conversions. What's a good and average:

    - Optin rate (email submissions/unique views * 100%)
    - Double Optin rate (confirmation/email submissions * 100%)
    - Open rate (opened messages/sent messages * 100%)
    - Click rate (clicks/opened messages * 100%)
    - Sale rate (sale/clicks * 100%)

    I need a basic idea on what you would consider a good ratio and an average ratio (and preferably a poor ratio) for the above numbers.

    Thanks.

    It all depends in what kind of business you are.

    No averages Luq. Markets/Traffic Sources/LPs all factor in.
