Weekly Roundup [Sept Week 2, 2022]: Gimme that Raw HTML
Weekly Roundup for the 2nd week of September.
HTML is the code that shapes how your email looks and feels in the inbox. In email marketing it uses a simpler, stricter version of web HTML so your design works across many different clients.
HTML is the code that gives structure and style to your emails. In email it controls things like layout, fonts, colors, and images. Email HTML is more limited than web HTML, so it often uses older coding methods that still work in many different inboxes.
Good HTML helps your emails load cleanly and look the way you planned. It keeps text readable, buttons clear, and designs from breaking in common email clients like Gmail, Outlook, and Apple Mail. With solid HTML, your messages feel more polished and are easier for people to scan and click.
When you build email templates, keep the HTML simple and predictable. Use a clear content structure with a main column, spacing between sections, and enough padding around buttons and links. Always test the same HTML in a few major email clients before sending a campaign.
Kinetic email is an interactive email that lets people click, swipe, or tap inside the message instead of going to a web page. It uses HTML and CSS to create simple actions like carousels, accordions, or quick surveys right in the inbox.
