How to send HTML email in Gmail?

/cloudHQ Apps / HTML Editor for Gmail / How to send HTML email in Gmail?

Since Gmail was introduced way back in 2004, many changes have been made to the email provider. One of the first changes was to remove the HTML editor and just keep the WYSIWYG editor.

While Gmail doesn’t offer the functionality of an HTML editor, it does still support HTML.

But why would you want to send an HTML email in Gmail?

While the WYSIWYG editor is handy for day-to-day usage – and quick as a flash – there are times when you may need to utilize HTML.

For example, adding a table or headers is something that most businesses do. Sure, you can add it using the Gmail editor, but it can look a little basic when it comes to professional emails.

In this situation, you’re probably best installing HTML editor in Gmail and using it edit your email.
