This info also needs to be sent to clients so they can see what extra steps are involved when they do not purchase an email marketing service. Good info.

Hi, nice little post on the basic steps you need to take. Linking images locally normally isn’t too much of a worry if you’re using a hosted mass mail service, it’s where the importance of testing the email comes in though!

I recently posted an article with some tips for people at a similar learning point with HTML emails.

Great tips about the slicing and dicing, exact urls, and of course the reminder to use alt text. It’s amazing how many people don’t. I once got an email from a business magazine. The only text that showed up with images off was their mailing address. (snail mail) The magazine name wasn’t even mentioned.

I’d also add that one should include a suitably descriptive subject line. While that is more a matter of staying on message than about code, it will help people decide whether to turn their images on if they open the message.

If any of your readers are unfamiliar with inline code, I give some further instructions on that in, 5 Tips to ensure your readers can read your HTML e-mail messages.
