Choose the right platforms

Include only the profiles that matter for your role — usually LinkedIn and your company site. More icons mean more clutter and breakage.

Text links vs. icons

Text links are the most email-safe; if you use icons, they must be small hosted images with alt text and explicit dimensions.

Create a professional email signature in minutes

Use KeyStamp's AI Signature Studio to generate, customize, preview, and export email-safe signatures for your team.

Create your signature

Keep them ordered and minimal

Lead with the most important profile, separate links cleanly, and don't let the social row compete with your core contact details.

Validate every URL

Use full https:// links to the exact profiles, and test that each opens correctly.
