Email Recommendations

Email Recommendations enriches a campaign by adding personalized product or content suggestions to the email template. Also, marketers can construct the entire email around personalized product or content suggestions for the ultimate 1-to-1 email communication. Email Recommendations dramatically increases click-through-rates and engagement to drive more revenue through the email channel.

You can send email recommendations with products or content with Email Product Recommendations and Email Content Recommendations. Configuring email for either product or content recommendations is similar. Each type generates HTML links to insert into your email templates.

Each email recipient gets dynamically generated, personalized product or content recommendations that are based on individual browsing behavior of the visitor Someone who visits a website using a web browser. In most cases, a visitor can use public functions and services but cannot create content and has limited access to community content. In an SEO context, visitor means the number of visits to a URL through channels (external referrers), direct arrivals, and internal links. (See also visitor groups.) on your website. So, each recipient gets personalized product or content suggestions that are relevant to the individual.

Configuring Email Recommendations is simple with options for strategy, filtering, and fine-tuning. The recommendations tool is ESP Stands for "email service provider"-agnostic and there is no complex integration required.

Optimizely tracking and Email Recommendations assign a unique Customer User ID (CUID Stands for "customer user ID") to any device the visitor is using to connect to your website. When a visitor identifies him- or herself on the site—by logging in, browsing your site, placing an order, or otherwise providing an email address, or by clicking a product or content recommendation in an email they received – Optimizely automatically converts the CUID into a KUID (Known User ID) that links behavior that is tracked on the device to the user's email address. This enables instant delivery of product or content suggestions according to specified strategies, and the visitor's behavior.

If a visitor connects on another device, Optimizely automatically connects the different CUIDs to a single KUID associated with that email address. In this way, personalization works consistently across the devices with which a visitor engages.

You can add HTML links to your campaign to generate the images within the campaign.
