Your email signature appears at the bottom of every message you send. For most professionals, that means dozens or hundreds of impressions per week — each one a chance to reinforce your brand and make it easy for people to contact you. Pair your signature with a professional out of office message for complete email polish.

Despite this, most email signatures are an afterthought: a hastily typed name and phone number, or worse, an outdated signature from three job titles ago. A well-designed signature signals professionalism, builds trust, and drives traffic to your website or social profiles.

Research from Exclaimer found that companies with standardized, branded email signatures see a 22% increase in brand awareness and a measurable lift in website traffic from signature links. For customer-facing teams, a consistent signature across all agents creates a cohesive brand experience.

The challenge has always been technical: email signatures use HTML tables (not modern CSS) because email clients like Outlook, Gmail, and Apple Mail render HTML differently. What looks perfect in Gmail might break in Outlook. This generator creates table-based, inline-styled signatures that work reliably across all major email clients.

Whether you are building signatures for yourself or standardizing them across a support team, this tool handles the technical complexity so you can focus on what to say — not how to code it.

How to Use This Generator

  1. Fill in your details: Enter your name, title, company, and contact information. Only the name field is required — everything else is optional.
  2. Pick a style: Choose Professional (clean with a divider), Modern (colored sidebar accent), or Minimal (text only).
  3. Choose your color: Set an accent color that matches your brand. The default is a professional blue.
  4. Preview your signature: The live preview updates as you type. Check that it looks right before copying.
  5. Copy and paste: Click "Copy HTML" to get the raw code, or "Copy Signature" to copy the rendered version directly into your email client's signature settings.

Pro Tips

  • Keep it short: 3-4 lines of text plus your name. Every additional line makes your emails look longer and your signature less effective.
  • Limit links: One website link and one or two social profiles is plenty. Too many links look spammy and dilute clicks.
  • Use a consistent color: Match your company's brand color for the accent. This small detail creates visual consistency across all team communications.
  • Test across clients: After pasting your signature, send test emails to Gmail, Outlook, and a mobile client. Most rendering issues are caught this way.
  • Update regularly: When you change roles, phone numbers, or company branding, update your signature immediately. Outdated signatures erode trust.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an email signature?
An email signature is a block of text and/or images automatically appended to the end of every email you send. It typically includes your name, job title, company, and contact information. A well-designed signature reinforces your brand with every email and makes it easy for recipients to reach you.
What should an email signature include?
At minimum: your full name, job title, and company name. Recommended additions: phone number, email address, website link, and one or two social media links. Keep it concise — 3 to 5 lines of information. Avoid quotes, large images, or more than two colors.
How do I add an email signature in Gmail?
Open Gmail, click the gear icon, then 'See all settings.' Scroll down to the 'Signature' section, click 'Create new,' paste your generated HTML signature, and save. Gmail supports rich text signatures but may strip some CSS. Table-based layouts work most reliably.
How do I add an email signature in Outlook?
In Outlook desktop: File → Options → Mail → Signatures. Click 'New,' name your signature, and paste the generated HTML. In Outlook web: Settings → View all Outlook settings → Compose and reply → Email signature. Paste your signature there.
What is the best email signature size?
Keep your signature under 600 pixels wide and 150 pixels tall. Most email clients display signatures at the bottom of messages, so a compact design ensures it doesn't overwhelm your actual email content. Aim for a total file size under 10KB for fast loading.
Should I include a photo in my email signature?
Photos can make signatures more personal, especially for sales and customer-facing roles. However, they increase file size, may not render in all email clients, and can trigger spam filters. If you include a photo, use a small (80x80 pixel), well-compressed image hosted on a reliable URL.
