An email signature is read more often than your website: every quote, invoice, follow-up and reply carries it. Done well, it gives the recipient your name, role, phone, a one-tap WhatsApp link and a reason to click — a banner for the current offer, a link to reviews. Done badly, it is a 4 MB image that lands in spam or a mess of broken tables. This maker builds a clean HTML email signature that renders correctly in Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail and phones, with your logo, brand colour, social links, banner and legal footer, and installs in a couple of clicks.
What to include
| Line | Guidance |
|---|---|
| Name and designation | Two lines; keep titles short |
| Company and logo | Logo 120–160 px wide, PNG; the background remover makes it transparent |
| Phone and WhatsApp | The WhatsApp number as a wa.me link with a pre-filled "Hi, I got your email…" |
| Email and website | Website with https:// |
| Address (optional) | Registered office for companies (the Companies Act expects it on official communications) |
| GSTIN (optional) | Useful for vendors and B2B buyers |
| Social links | Only the profiles you keep active |
| Banner | One offer, one CTA — "Diwali catalogue → " or "Rate us on Google" via the review link |
| Legal footer | Confidentiality line for professionals; DPDP-related notice if you handle personal data |
Keep the whole thing under 8 lines and under 50 KB.
How to use the maker
- Fill in the fields; the preview shows the signature exactly as it will render, on light and dark backgrounds.
- Choose a layout (logo left, stacked, minimal), font, colour and icon style.
- Add a banner image (600 × 100 px works everywhere) with its link, and social icons.
- Click Copy signature and paste into Gmail (Settings → Signature), Outlook (Options → Signatures), or Apple Mail; or download the HTML for your IT team to deploy across the company.
- Send a test to yourself and open it on a phone.
Why HTML signatures break, and how this one does not
Email clients strip CSS, ignore modern layout and resize images unpredictably. The maker outputs table-based HTML with inline styles, absolute image URLs (or embedded data for small logos), fixed widths, and alt text — the approach that survives Outlook. Images are hosted from a link you provide or embedded as Base64 (see the JSON & Base64 tool if you want to inspect it); very large embedded images can trigger spam filters, so logos are compressed automatically.
Consistency and compliance
- Match colours and logo with your letterhead, favicon and invoices.
- Companies should show the registered name, CIN and office address in official emails.
- For marketing emails and bulk sends, consent and unsubscribe rules apply; a signature is not a newsletter. TRAI's 2026 messaging norms are summarised in TRAI's new anti-spam rules.
- Do not paste your signature into WhatsApp messages; use the vCard QR instead for contact sharing.
