It is now possible to integrate videos into your emails, but under certain conditions. Explanations:
The video sharing site YouTube offers to share videos by integrating an HTML code. Once integrated into your email, this code allows you to play the video directly in the message only on webmails (Gmail, Yahoo and Hotmail). Email software refuses scripts that allow it to be played.
The steps:
– choose or upload your video to YouTube
– click on “Share”, then “Embed”
– copy and paste the HTML code wordpress web design agency between the <body> tags in the HTML Source tab of Sarbacane
– indicate just before the iframe tag:
by changing the name of the link
iframe youtube
This requires you to create two emails and sort your database in order to send this first version to recipients with webmail.
Note:
On Hotmail, the video will appear at the top of the message.
On Gmail and Yahoo, the video will appear at the bottom of the message.
What about others?
For users of email software like Outlook, you can use the animated gif.
Created with Adobe Photoshop or Fireworks, the animated gif is a succession of images that scroll according to a predefined time interval. It is easily created from one or more basic images.
It couldn't be simpler.
The file can be directly integrated into the body of your message, like an image. The animation will play automatically, in a loop, one or more times depending on the defined parameters.
However, pay attention to the weight and duration, which should not exceed a few seconds. Inserting it too heavily will increase the weight of your campaign and harm its deliverability.
If you want the animated gif to be the beginning of the video linked to a hosted video, consider playing the animation only once and ending with an arrow. This will pique the reader's interest and encourage them to click to see more.
