About HTML Email Builder

This tool generates production-ready HTML email templates using table-based layouts and inline CSS styles. Email clients like Outlook, Gmail, and Yahoo have limited CSS support, so emails must use older HTML techniques to render consistently. Our builder handles all the quirks so you can focus on content and design.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do HTML emails need table-based layouts?
HTML emails require table-based layouts because many email clients (especially Outlook and older webmail clients) have limited or inconsistent CSS support. Tables provide a reliable structure that renders consistently across Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail, Yahoo Mail, and other clients. CSS features like flexbox and grid are not supported in most email clients.
Why should HTML emails use inline styles instead of external CSS?
Most email clients strip out or ignore external stylesheets and style tags in the head section. Inline styles (applied directly to HTML elements via the style attribute) are the most reliable way to ensure your email renders correctly. Gmail, Outlook, and Yahoo Mail all handle inline styles consistently, making them the industry standard for HTML email development.
What is the recommended width for HTML emails?
The recommended maximum width for HTML emails is 600 pixels. This width ensures your email displays properly across desktop email clients, webmail interfaces, and mobile devices. While some designers use up to 700px, 600px is the safest choice for maximum compatibility. The email should also be responsive, adapting gracefully to smaller screens.
How can I test HTML emails across different email clients?
You can test HTML emails by sending test messages to accounts on different providers (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo), using email testing services like Litmus or Email on Acid, or checking the rendered preview in your email sending platform. Always test on both desktop and mobile clients, and pay special attention to Outlook which uses the Word rendering engine and has the most CSS limitations.
