EMAIL GLOSSARY

What is HTML email?

HTML emails are a kind of email that have images, colours and graphics along with text. These are the opposite type of email to plain text emails which will only ever use text. HTML emails are commonly used by marketers and businesses because the images and formatting will make them stand out to the reader and encourage them to read the email and take action.

What is an HTML email?

HTML email is the phrase we use to describe emails that have been written with HTML code. They include things like images and graphics, while a plain text email will have only the text itself.

An email can be in an HTML format as well as in plain text. Using different formats is allowed and you can use an HTML to Text converter to write your email in HTML and make sure it looks good in plain text.
