Add an email signature in Outlook

Add an email signature that'll display when sending messages with Outlook. Set up your signature to automatically add a new message or replies and forwards. When you include information like your phone numbers and website in your signature, your recipients will know more about who's contacting them.

If you need help generating a professional signature, create an email signature in the Email & Office Dashboard.

Select the appropriate tab based on the email platform you're using.

Sign in to Outlook on the web. Use your Microsoft 365 email address and password (your GoDaddy username and password won't work here).
In the upper-right corner, select Settings.
Select Account, and then Signatures.
Under Email signature, enter a signature name and the signature details.
(Optional) To create another signature, select + New Signature. After it's created, it'll display in a list of saved signatures. Or, to edit an existing signature, select the signature from the list, and edit the details in the textbox.
Under Select default signatures, select your default signature(s) for New Messages and Replies/Forwards.
Select Save.

Your signature is now available to use.
