Testing the Clickthrough Links in an Email Message

View all the links contained in your email, along with the associate anchor text. Act-On tests the links in both the HTML and text versions of your message and will tell you if the links are valid and if any are broken. To Test Your Links:

In the Email Composer:

1. Open the email or email template you want.
2. At the upper right, click Preview to enter Preview Mode.
3. In the Check for errors tab on the right, open Content:

4. Under Clickthrough links, click View results. A Clickthrough link results dialog opens with details for each link.

For legacy emails:

1. Open your message.
2. Click the Design tab.
3. On the lower right, select Validate Clickthrough Links.
4. A window appears displaying your links and associated anchor text.
5. Click on the right to test your clickthrough links to ensure they reach the correct URL:

6. Click Close when you are finished.
   Validate Clickthrough Links checks each unique URL in your message. If you have multiple buttons or images linked to the same URL, "Validate Clickthrough Links" will show only the first link. Don't worry, Act-On is still tracking each one separately when you send the message.
