"I have almost 500 people sigend up to receive my newsletter but each time I send it 8-9 open it and 1 =3 click onto website. Now what do I do?"

Honestly, there could a lot of factors involved in low open rate. If 8 or 9 actually open it and then you get 1-3 click...that's pretty good. But problem here, seems to be with getting people to open darned email.

Here's a couple things to think about:

1. How much of your email is getting through? Could your email or service you're using be blacklisted by certain ISPs? I would check and see if you can see how many of your emails are actually going through.

2. How about a compelling subject line? Test out different subject lines to see what grabs your subscribers interest. If you're still writing:

"MyDomain.com Newsletter Issue 1 Vol 14"

Then cut it out!:) That's not going to get people to open it. Try to give them a quick glimpse of what's inside and make it interesting. You'll probably find certain things grab your subscriber's attention than others.

3. What are contents of your newsletter like? Is there a reason for people to open it if they don't have their wallet ready to buy something? I know that many people who sell products only place information about product specials, etc....but if your subscriber is not in a buying mood, they may not open your email.
