E-mailing
2016
• The e-mail is sent as an HTML-mail. A text version can be hidden as a commentary in the HTML coding. This offers users that do
not work with HTML the opportunity to read the text nevertheless.
• The maximum width of the e-mail field is 600 pixels, with an optimal text field of 460 pixels (type area). This ensures all users can
read the e-mail in optimal circumstances (especially Outlook users that preview their e-mails).
RATES L’ECHO | DE TIJD
E-mail guidelines
• The sender of the e-mail: De Tijd Partnermail and Partenaire communication de L’Echo.
• The advertiser can determine the subject of the e-mail.
• Images are embedded in the e-mail with a hard link, to avoid the e-mail becoming too heavy.
Remark: Gmail shortens html emails which are larger than 102 kb.
Personalizing of e-mails
If the advertiser wishes to personify the email (name and/or first name), the personification field should be inserted in the HTML as
follows: ~FIRSTNAME~ ~NAME~
Please note: not all users have filled in the data correctly!
• Header in e-mails

Tips & Tricks
• Increase direct response
- Language of the mail = language of the reader
- Subject line: concise and clear with a call to action
- Call to action: must be visible without having to scroll
- Various links on images, logos
- Clickable list of topics
• Layout and content
- Keep a good balance between text and images
- Use a font with a minimum size of 10 points
• Technical aspects
- Special characters: adapt the html and include a meta tag in the header
- Css: use inline styles instead of style sheet in the header of the html
- Visuals in e-mail: use absolute paths
(e.g. http:// www.mysite.com/images) instead of relative paths
(e.g. images/image.gif)
- Avoid the use of background images
- Avoid that the e-mail is designed as a single image
