About preview text
Many email clients display a message in the inbox called preview text. This text is inserted into the HTML body of your email and will usually display after the From Name and Subject Line. Use preview text to add a bit of personalization and to give a sneak peek at the contents of your email.
Avoid using this valuable space for links like View email in Browser. Those links are best suited for the preheader or footer. Preheader text can be seen both in the opened email and near the subject line in the inbox. Preview text, on the other hand, is not visible when the message is opened.
Email clients with the best support for preview text:
- Apple Mail
- iOS native apps
- Android native apps
- Recent versions of Outlook (v2013+)
- Modern webmail clients such as Gmail, Yahoo, and Outlook.com
