Since we don’t use templates of any kind, your Email Signature is designed “from scratch”. Our team of designers will replicate the look and feel of your existing marketing materials such as your business cards, brochures, logos and even the font style, to create a custom solution that complements your brand. We believe this is the only way to create a high-impact and professional design.
Why does my Email Signature look fragmented or broken when I try to send a message?
Some email service providers such as Outlook use different rendering engines when composing emails. Don’t worry! Your Email Signature has been tested using dozens of email programs, so even though it may look different in your browser or email client, the people who receive it will receive a perfect version. Send yourself a test message to see what your clients and customers will receive.
Do the images in the email come across as attachments?
No. The images are loaded instantly into the email and will show up when the recipient opens the message. In the case of a slow load time, the images will simply load slower but they won’t appear as an attachment below your message.
Will everyone be able to see the images that make up my Email Signature?
Most people will be able to see all the images when they open your email message. People who have set the security settings on their mail programs very high will not be able to see some of the images, and will see a red ‘X’ where the image should be instead. Unfortunately, we cannot bypass this security setting.
Will Email Signature cause my messages to be marked as “spam”?
No. All HTML-based email adds only a very small percentage to the message’s spam score. More than 95% of all commercial email being sent is HTML-based. Only a handful of Internet Service Providers block HTML messages entirely, so your message will reach your clients! ISPs that do block HTML messages include the FBI, MIT, the FAA and other government or high security organizations.
How can Email Signature products improve SEO for my website?
Since recipients of your custom email can share the information via Twitter and Facebook within a few clicks, the content of your emails can “go public” and be shared among other social networking and social bookmarking sites. Any time someone links back to your website URL – either because they have found an article or content that they feel is important – your search engine ranking improves.
How can Email Signature products increase traffic to my website?
Every Email Signature element is embedded with hot links of your choice. This means that you can direct all email recipients to specific sections of your site, blog or landing pages within seconds. Whether you’re sending a quick email update or a custom newsletter, you can boost traffic to your site each time you send out the email.
How long does it take for my new Email Signature to be designed?
After you send us your logos, photos, links to your website, contact information and ideas on what you would like included in your Email Signature, your project enters our design queue. Once we accept the project, the first proof is ready within 3 to 5 business days. The process may take slightly longer during peak business times. After you receive the proof, you will work directly with your designer until the design is perfect. The average design process is 1-2 weeks.
What does the design process look like?
Email Signature.com makes it easy for you to get your custom design in the shortest time possible, without compromising on quality.
The basic process is as follows: Step 1: You tell us what you need by uploading your company logo, colors, photos, website links and any other details that you want included in your design. Step 2: Our Design Team reviews the information and creates a proof within 3 to 5 business days. We will contact you with any questions. Step 3: Once you receive and review the proof, you can provide feedback for any revisions you’d like made and your designer will make those in 1-3 business days. Step 4: We finish your design. After the changes have been made, we’ll prepare the design for installation.
That’s it! You can have your custom Email Signature solution in as little as a week’s time, depending on your feedback and our business flow.
Why do all of my links go to Email Signature.com first?
We do this for two reasons. First sending the link through Email Signature.com’s servers allow us to track the number of clicks and visitors to your website as a result of your Email Signature. We can tell you what links drive the most traffic to your site.
Secondly, by having the links through our site the links can be updated at anytime and every email you sent in the past will point to the new location. If we hard coded the links directly to your website in the Email Signature and you changed a page, all the emails sent before the page changed would be broken.
Is the custom email design under copyright?
Every design we create is protected under general copyright laws. This means that nobody else can copy or replicate your unique design and use it in their emails or other products in any way.
Are emailSignatures also protected under copyright?
emailSignature elements are designed with your logo, company name and custom fonts, and are also protected under general copyright laws. This means that nobody can design a replica of your signature without violating general copyright law. Your custom design is uniquely yours!
Can you replicate a design that my colleague or a client uses?
Replicating an existing design or theme would violate general copyright laws, but our Design Team can take certain elements of the design or style to create something completely new for you! Just send us links or examples during the initial phases of the design process so that we can start working on a completely unique design for you.
Need help resetting your Email Signature password?
You’ve made it this far! Your Stationery has been purchased, your beautiful design has been created and….
(insert screeching breaks)…what is your password?!
During the design process, your proofs go directly to your email to review so you may not have had to login to your account up until this point. Don’t worry, we’ve got an easy fix for that! Click here to get a new password sent to your email.
Once you get your new password, please go back to that login screen and sign in using your email address and that temporary password you were emailed. Once you are logged in, on the left hand side you will see a link that says “Change Password”. Put in your old one, create a new one that you’ll remember and voila! Password Reset. Pat yourself on the back, that’s one thing you can remove from your To-Do List!
Helpful Hint: Please keep in mind that the password reset is case sensitive and requires just letters and numbers. It will not accept any passwords with characters in it!
Gmail Signature Setup!
So you’ve purchased the Email Signature and worked with our amazing team of designers to get it completely custom designed to match your branding. How exciting is that? Step one is completed and now it’s time to actually put it to use! Now what?
Here’s are some step by step instructions to do so:
Gmail Signature Installation Instructions
1) Once the file has been completed, you’ll be able to find the link to your Signature within your account settings or it was emailed to you when your proof was approved and finalized. Click on the link and it’ll open up in your web browser of choice.
2) With your cursor, highlight to select your entire signature. Next, hit CTRL+C on your PC (or Command+C on a MAC) on your keyboard to copy the entire file.
3) Next, open up your Gmail email account.
4) Click on the gray gear icon in the top right hand corner of Gmail and go to Settings.
5) Once you are in your settings, scroll down to the Signature area and paste in the Signature images we just copied. Check the box that says ““
Hit Save Changes at the bottom and that should save your Signature for easy access when you are composing an email in Gmail from any computer.
When I try to copy and paste my new signature as instructed, I am only getting a piece of it. What gives?
You just got your installation instructions for your Stationery products…yay! Whether you are using a webmail program like Gmail to check your emails, or a desktop version of Outlook, one step that they both have in common is the need to get your new Signature copied and pasted directly into the settings!
But when you attempt to do what the instructions say and copy the entire signature in order to paste, you are only getting one piece of it not the entire Signature with all the links. What gives?
Don’t worry, your Signature is not broken 🙂 With the new ways the browsers are trying to streamline the layout and keep things seamless and clean, its no longer as simple as going up to the menu and going Edit > Select All and then Edit > Copy. Each browser does things a different way now, so here is a breakdown, per browser, to copy and paste cleaning and correctly the first time.
Google Chrome
Open up your new Signature directly in your Chrome Browser.
With your cursor, highlight to select your entire signature. Make sure you get it all!
Next, go up and click on the 3 horizontal lines or dots in the top right hand corner of Google Chrome. This will drop down a menu and you will see under the Edit Category an area to select “Copy”. This will ensure that you have copied all of the images and code correctly!
Hint: If you are more familiar with using your computer, you can also hit CTRL+C on your PC (or Command+C on a MAC) directly on your keyboard instead).
Mozilla Firefox
Open up your new Signature directly in your Firefox Browser.
With your cursor, highlight to select your entire signature. Make sure you get it all!
Next, right click OVER any part of the highlighted area and a dropdown menu will come up. You’ll see two options: Copy and Copy Image. Please make sure that you select Copy to ensure that you copy the entirety of the signature that was selected, and do not select Copy Image as this will only copy the piece of the Signature in which you are currently hovered over.
Hint: If you are more familiar with using your computer, in lieu of the right click over the graphics to copy the file, you can also hit CTRL+C on your PC (or Command+C on a MAC) directly on your keyboard instead).
How do I get my email signature on my IPhone?
Do you have an iPhone? If so, you’re in luck!
There is a way of adding your Signature directly to the mail app that is on your phone and sends your branding out even when you’re on the move!
First things first, make sure you have your email setup through the Apple Mail app. That is the standard Mail app that comes on the phone, and looks like this:
Once you have determined you are using the right app, lets get your Signature setup!
Apple requires text above your signature, so add your closing above your signature. Usually, the close is something like “thank you”, “best”, ect.. Send yourself a test message from your computer using your Signature and check it on your phone.
Click and hold down your finger just above the Signature, and it’ll pop up a bunch of options. Choose “Select” and drag the cursor so the blue highlights the entire Signature.
Once it’s fully selected, tap the highlighted area once and you’ll see the options appear again. Select “Copy”.
Now we just need to paste it into the settings! Go to your home screen and go to Settings > Mail > Signature
Delete everything inside and tap once to pull up those options again. Hit “Paste”!
That’s it!
Now back all the way out and create an email. You’ll see your Signature pop right in!
Enjoy!
Will everyone be able to see the images that make up my Email Signature?
Most people will be able to see all the images when they open your email message. People who have set the security settings on their mail programs very high will not be able to see some of the images, and will see a red ‘X’ where the image should be instead.

Yes! We make it very simple for you to embed any hot links you want to include in each email. You can change this information at any time for no additional fees.
Why should I use emails to increase traffic to my website?
In addition to generating fresh leads and building up your database of contacts, sending emails with your URL can be an effective way to improve the quality of your website and improve your search engine ranking on the major search engines. Search engines are looking to rank high quality, high-traffic sites across all industries. If you continue to generate more traffic with each email send, you could increase your chances of getting a higher search engine placement.
