In fact, customers tell us that one of the biggest mistakes they fear when sending an email is to include a broken or missing link.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Messed up links can cost you more than just time and embarrassment. If you\u2019re in publishing, your newsletter is your product and any missing or broken URL hurts your brand reputation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Verizon Media Australia Pty Ltd, \u201cWe usually triple check each link and then send tests to at least two people in the team to make sure it&#8217;s all correct\u2014we work in publishing and it&#8217;s incredibly important for each story to link out to the correct URL.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ve gone to all this effort to craft engaging copy that compels your reader and you\u2019ve designed a call to action that\u2019s bolding and enticing. But when your readers click, there\u2019s nothing. Or they end up at the wrong place on your site. Now you\u2019ve missed an opportunity to convert subscribers and you can\u2019t be sure you\u2019ll be able to recapture their attention.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We aim to make marketers feel confident in every send, regardless of their experience level. Because of the amount of time and anxiety that goes into checking, double-checking, and even triple-checking your links, we\u2019re introducing a new tool so our customers can send emails with confidence and efficiency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Frontier Touring says: \u201cThe Link Review tool has quickly become a natural part of my proofing process.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Introducing the new Link Review tool<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.campaignmonitor.com\/blog\/email-marketing\/campaign-monitor-releases-email-link-review-tool-and-my-branded-templates\/\">Campaign Monitor has a <\/a><\/span><b>Review links<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> button in our email builder. Here, you will be notified of any missing or broken links in your current email. You\u2019ll also get an alert if a link has not been updated if the email was copied from a previous campaign.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/links.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-57217\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/links.png\" alt=\"Introducing the new Link Review tool.

It cut back the time I spent checking links which involved me sending test emails to myself and clicking through all of the links to double-check that they were working correctly.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your email includes a broken or missing link, you\u2019ll be prompted to review and update the link while still in the email builder.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Campaign Monitor comparison<\/h2>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a quick glance at other ESPs that offer\u2014or do not offer\u2014link checking capabilities:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020_CM_non-marketing_product-marketing_content_link-review-matrix_TB_1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-57300\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020_CM_non-marketing_product-marketing_content_link-review-matrix_TB_1.png\" alt=\"Campaign Monitor's Link Review tool Comparison\" width=\"3840\" height=\"2160\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Send with confidence<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Universal Magazines told us, \u201cI think everyone who has ever sent a campaign email has had concerns about sending bad links. A bad link can cause a range of problems and, in the very worst cases, can negate the whole intention of sending a campaign email in the first place.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We know how much time and effort you spend creating your emails, not to mention the time you spend double-checking to make sure everything in your email is pixel perfect. The copy, design, lists, and personalization all have to be confirmed before hitting send and it\u2019s easy for something as innocuous as a misspelled URL to slip through your checks to disastrous results.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Campaign Monitor, we know that a missing or broken URL link in your email is a common mistake that can be a headache to fix.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not only is a broken link a pain for you, it harms your brand\u2019s reputation, prevents your email from delivering the results you expect, and often means additional time and resources spent trying to remedy the error.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After all the time you\u2019ve spent crafting every detail into an effective email, don\u2019t let a broken link steal your results.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wrap up<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our Link Review tool means you can have confidence that a simple mistake won\u2019t ruin your results. You have more important things to worry about, such as how you\u2019re serving your customers and running your business.
