How to Add Anchor Links to an Email
An anchor link is a link that leads the reader to a specific place in the email. Anchor links are most often used in the email menu, helping navigate long emails. Using them, readers can skip the irrelevant sections and jump straight to the content they’re most interested in at the moment.
Important!
Some email clients don’t support anchor links: Gmail (iOS), Apple Mail (iOS), Outlook.com (Web), Outlook (Android), Outlook (MacOS).
In eSputnik, you can add anchor links to the email in two ways:
- In the HTML editor;
- In the code editor.
