How to add an email signature in Gmail
Create a clean signature, add it to Gmail, and make sure it works on every send.
Start with the essential
A useful Gmail signature makes it easy for people to reply, understand your role, and find the next step. Keep it short: your name, role, company, and one reliable contact method are usually enough.
Put it into practice
First, create the signature content. Use our HTML Email Signature Generator to prepare a clean version, then copy the visible signature into a new Gmail signature. In Gmail, open Settings, select See all settings, find Signature in the General tab, and choose Create new.
A detail worth checking
Set the new signature as the default for new emails and replies if you use it often. Send yourself a test message to check how it looks on desktop and mobile. Avoid oversized images, too many links, and long taglines: they make messages harder to scan and can render poorly in email clients.
Use this as a small, repeatable check rather than a one-time task.
