Practical Uses of Exported HTML Emails

Exporting HTML emails from HubSpot has many practical applications that can benefit your business. Here are some scenarios where exported HTML emails can be useful:

1. Archival purposes: Exported HTML emails can be stored as backups, allowing you to maintain a record of your email marketing history.

Troubleshooting Common Issues and Best Practices

When exporting HTML emails from HubSpot, you may encounter some challenges. Here are common issues and solutions:

• Formatting discrepancies: The exported HTML may not perfectly match the original email design. To minimize this, keep your email design simple and use standard HTML elements supported across email clients.
• Missing images: Ensure all images are properly linked using absolute URLs in the HTML. Host images on a reliable server or consider embedding them directly in the email using Base64 encoding.
• Broken links: Double-check that all links in the exported HTML are correct and functional. Replace any relative URLs with absolute ones.

To ensure the exported HTML functions as intended, follow these best practices:

1. Thoroughly test the exported HTML in various email clients to identify any rendering issues.
2. Use inline CSS styles instead of external stylesheets or  tags, as many email clients strip out <head> and <style> elements.
   • Optimize your email design for mobile devices by using responsive techniques like media queries and fluid layouts.
   • Provide a plain-text version of your email alongside the HTML version to ensure accessibility for all recipients.

By being aware of these common issues and adhering to best practices, you can successfully export and share HubSpot emails as HTML while maintaining their integrity across different platforms and email clients.
