Free Email Signature Generator

How do I create a free email signature that works in Gmail and Outlook?

Short answer: We.Inc's free Email Signature Generator lets you fill in your details, pick a brand color and layout, and copy a clean signature into Gmail, Outlook, or Apple Mail. It builds the signature from simple tables and inline styles, the markup email programs display reliably, and links your logo from a public web address instead of attaching it.

Key facts

  • The email signature is built from tables and inline styles because those display consistently across Gmail, Outlook, and Apple Mail.
  • The logo or photo must be a public image address starting with https, since email signatures cannot carry uploaded files.
  • A recommended signature is kept to four or five lines and uses a logo around 100 to 150 pixels wide.
  • In Gmail, you add the signature under Settings, See all settings, General, Signature.
  • If you do not have a website yet, We.Inc can build one so your logo has a permanent public address.

Fill in your details, pick a brand colour and a layout, and copy a clean signature into Gmail, Outlook or Apple Mail. The signature is built from simple tables and inline styles, the only markup email programs display reliably.

How it works

  1. Enter your name, role, company, phone, website and email. Leave out anything you do not want shown.
  2. Paste a link to your logo or photo. It must be a public image address (starting with https) because email signatures cannot carry uploaded files.
  3. Choose a brand colour and add social profile links.
  4. Click 'Copy signature' and paste it into your email program's signature settings, or copy the HTML if your program asks for code.

What belongs in a business email signature

The essentials are your name, what you do, your company and one or two ways to reach you. A phone number matters for trades and local services where customers prefer to call; a website link matters for everyone. Social links are useful when those profiles are active and show your work.

Leave out inspirational quotes, long legal disclaimers (unless your industry requires them) and multiple phone numbers. Every extra line makes the important ones harder to find.

Why signatures break, and how this one avoids it

Email programs are far stricter than web browsers. Many ignore style sheets, strip modern layout code and rewrite fonts. That is why signatures made in design tools often arrive broken. This generator uses plain tables, inline styles and web-safe fonts, which display consistently across Gmail, Outlook and Apple Mail.

Your logo is linked from its web address rather than attached, so it does not show up as a mystery attachment on every email.

Hosting your logo

The most reliable place for your logo is your own website, for example yourdomain.com/logo.png. Avoid links from file sharing services, which often expire or ask the viewer to sign in. If you do not have a website yet, We.Inc can build one, and your logo will then have a permanent public address.

Tips

Frequently asked questions

How do I add the signature to Gmail?

Click 'Copy signature', open Gmail, go to Settings, See all settings, General, Signature, create a new signature and paste. Scroll down and click Save changes.

How do I add it to Outlook?

In Outlook on the web or the new Outlook, open Settings, Account, Signatures, create a new signature and paste. In classic Outlook for Windows it is File, Options, Mail, Signatures.

How do I add it to Apple Mail?

Open Mail, Settings, Signatures, choose the account, click plus, and paste. Untick 'Always match my default message font' so your colours and sizes stay.

Why does my logo not show?

The image address must be public and start with https. Some email programs block images until the reader clicks 'show images', which is normal and not something a signature can override.

Is my information stored?

No. The signature is built in your browser and nothing you type is sent to We.Inc.
