You can customize your email open and click tracking links with your domain name using the Link Branding option; that is the links and images for email tracking (click tracking and open tracking) would be from your Domains instead of the default tracking link from Salesmate.

Importance of Custom Domain Tracking

  • Using your own custom domain boosts your email deliverability and gives your email recipients the security and belief that the links in your messages are secure and belongs to your domain
  • It will build your own email sending reputation, therefore helps you create/ build your own brand image

To set up the custom tracking domain:

  • Click on the Profile Icon at the top right corner

  • Once you have added CNAME records, you might have to wait for 30 minutes to 72 hours based on your domain service provider to update those CNAME records
  • Once CNAME records are updated, you can come back to the page and hit the verify button

  • Once the domain gets verified, the outgoing emails will start sending tracking links with your domain name

 

Note:

1. You can setup and verify multiple domains
2. You can also choose a default domain in case of sending SMTP domain is not verified
3. At the time of sending emails, the system will check the domain name of the outgoing email. If it matches with the domain you have verified, then tracking links will be overwritten with the provided domain name
4. Please note end-user must have SSL certificates installed for provided sub-domains to avoid any security warning
5. We always use SSL based images to track the open tracking
6. If the user has added a URL inside the email with HTTPS, then the tracking URL will also be generated with SSL. If the user has provided a non-SSL URL, then the tracking URL might follow non SSL URLs
