Four reasons that show up in real conversations with customers.
Start with two or three addresses, not fifteen. Most businesses need a general address, a personal one, and a billing or support address.
In your client area, open email, choose your domain, add the address, set a strong password and a mailbox size. It is live immediately. Repeat for each address, and use aliases where you only need forwarding.
Professional mailboxes, calendars, webmail and proper deliverability records — set up for you on your domain.
Use the webmail link for instant access, or add the account to Outlook, Apple Mail or Gmail using IMAP with the server details shown in your client area. IMAP keeps every device in sync, so a message read on your phone shows as read on your laptop.
A free Gmail account is free and familiar, but the address belongs to Google's domain, not yours. Business email hosting on your own domain gives you branded addresses, larger shared mailboxes, calendars and admin control, usually for a few dollars a month.
Add SPF, DKIM and DMARC records — we configure these for domains hosted with us. Avoid sending bulk campaigns from your main mailbox, and never buy contact lists; both damage your sending reputation quickly.
