How To Make Hubspot Email Responsive

by

In the modern era of fast-paced technology, a considerable amount of email checking is carried out on mobile devices. According to a recent research, 61.9% of email openings took place on mobile, 9.8% on desktop, and 28.3% on a webmail client. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure your emails are responsive and suitable for mobile devices. This blog post will provide you with instructions on how to create a responsive HubSpot email.

Understanding HubSpot’s Email Tool

HubSpot’s email tool effectively ensures that every email you send is responsive by default. This means all emails you create using HubSpot’s email tool will automatically adjust to fit the screen of any device your contact uses to open the email. However, there might be times when you want to customize the email experience for different devices. Let’s delve into how we can do that.

Customizing HubSpot Email for Responsiveness

HubSpot uses media queries to adjust email templates for different screen sizes. You can customize these media queries in your email template’s HTML to make specific design changes for mobile devices.

Here’s an example of a media query you might use: 

    @media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
        /* Insert your mobile styles here */
    }

This media query will apply the styles enclosed in the brackets to any screen that is 480 pixels wide or less.

Modifying Padding and Margins

Often, to make your email design look better on smaller screens, you might want to adjust the padding or margins. To do so, you can add a style tag within the media query to adjust the padding or margin for specific elements.

Here’s an example: 

    @media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
        .classname {
            padding: 10px!important;
            margin: 10px!important;
        }
    }

This code will apply a padding and margin of 10 pixels to the element with the class “classname” on screens that are 480 pixels wide or less.

Adjusting Font Size

You may also want to increase the font size when your email is viewed on a mobile device to make it easier to read. To do this, you can modify the font-size property within your media query.

Here’s how you can do this: 

    @media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
        .classname {
            font-size: 16px!important;
        }
    }

This code will change the font size of the element with the class “classname” to 16 pixels on screens that are 480 pixels wide or less.

Wrapping Up

With these simple edits, you can ensure your HubSpot emails are not only responsive, but also tailored for the best user experience on mobile devices. Always remember, the key to a successful email marketing strategy lies in the overall user experience, and responsiveness plays a crucial role in that.
