Description
Confirmed opt-in means that someone has to take an extra step to get on email list (double opt-in). After they initially sign up, they'll get an email asking them to confirm their subscription by clicking a link.

This helps make sure that the people actually want to be there, and it can improve email deliverability and engagement down the line.
Why it is important
Confirmed Opt-ins ensure a qualified and engaged subscriber base. By requiring confirmation, marketers filter out disinterested or mistyped email addresses.

This metric contributes to improved deliverability, list quality, and subscriber engagement. It also helps build trust, ensuring that emails reach an audience genuinely interested in the content.
Formula
Number of Confirmed Opt-ins
Calculation example
After sending out confirmation emails to 500 subscribers, 400 of them confirmed their opt-ins.

The Confirmed Opt-ins would be 400.
