 Best days for e-mail1 comment

Paul Allen Blog mentions stats for how likely people are to open e-mails on various days of the week, and how likely they are to click on something in them. This is the chart.

Well, e-mail marketing isn't generally anything to recommend nowadays, as it can a bit hard to distinguish it from spam. But say you have a legitimate reason for mailing a lot of people, like a newsletter they've signed up for, this is of course useful. Send it Friday or Sunday. I suppose because people have less to do on those days, and are more looking for new stuff that might entertain them.

Who's to say that an email sent on Thursday isn't opened until Sunday?
