Issue #170 All About Email
🎊 Email of the Year!
Hi, friend. 👋
Welcome to Issue #170 of All About Email!
Last week, we concluded Part Four of our mini-series by discussing subdomains and why you should use them for emails.
This week's special edition is one of my favourite issues of the year! (The topic was meant to be “List Growth,” but more on that at the end of the email.)
Let’s go! 👇
Your Top 10 All About Emails & Email of the Year
💡 This will be a new feature if you are new to this newsletter.
Every six months, I review the “Top 10” newsletters based on engagement from you, friend, and the rest of my lovely readers.
⚡️ The last time I did this was on August 26th (I should have sent it at the end of June); check it out.
🎉 So, friend, let’s look at your “Email of the Year” and your “Top Ten” from the last six months in order of engagement. 👇

"All About Email" in Numbers
🐝 This is my first year on Beehiiv, and I was pleasantly surprised to receive my “Beehiiv Wrapped”.
It was so cool, and you can check out the full details on my LinkedIn, but in summary:
✍️ 24.4k Words written.
👀 11.3k Impressions
📭 Avg. Open Rate 56.2%
⏩ Avg. CTR 12.6%
I only joined Beehiiv six months ago, so these stats blew my mind.
Email of the Year
🎉 Beehiiv Wrapped revealed the top newsletter of the entire year by engagement from you, friend, and my other readers…All About Email Issue #149 - Google Ad Manager Launches Programmatic Email Ads
That’s it for This Week 👋
⏭️ Next week (and December 30th), there is no newsletter.
I’m terrible at numbers and got my dates wrong. 🤦♂️
We are taking a two-week break for the holiday season, and the regular newsletter returns on January 6th with the next topic in our mini-series, “List Growth“.
💡 I do have some plans for this newsletter in the new year now that I am using the paid tier of Beehiiv.
I “might” be in touch over the holiday period with some questions and informal updates.
