Features Overview
A quick overview of some of the AI newsletter features that are included in our table.
1. Sponsorship Ads
Sponsorship ads are advertisements placed within AI newsletter articles. The sponsored company leverages the newsletter's existing audience to market and advertise their products and services. Sponsorship ads are a crucial revenue stream for newsletters that can be customized to align with the interests of subscribers.
2. Open Rates
The open rate is the percentage of subscribers who open a newsletter after receiving it. For example, if you send a daily newsletter to 10,000 subscribers, and an average of 50 percent of your subscribers open it, that means you have an open rate of 50%. In this example, a 50% open rate indicates that an average of 5,000 subscribers open your newsletter daily.
It's an important metric for newsletter owners and sponsored companies (who want to advertise in a newsletter) to track because it's an excellent indicator of engagement and effectiveness.
3. Sponsorship Ads Price
This refers to the cost for a company or brand to place an advertisement in the newsletter. Prices can vary based on size, time, placement within the newsletter, audience size, and more. In our table, you’ll usually see;
Starts at $(price): This refers to the lowest main ad pricing for that newsletter.
Custom: A ‘custom’ ad price indicates that the company (that wants to advertise) has to fill out a form or contact the newsletter to work out custom pricing and details for the ad.
N/A not applicable.
4. Launch Date
The launch date is when thenewsletter was first published and made available to subscribers. This provides context about how established the newsletter is, how long it’s provided content to readers, and its overall history and longevity.
Note: In some cases, the launch date wasn’t specified or available online. To identify a launch date in these instances, we visited the sitemap of each newsletter to check when the first article was published and used that as the launch date.
