Do you want to create a professional business email address for free? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A business email address uses your company name instead of the generic Gmail, Outlook, or Yahoo account. It is an email address that includes your business\u2019s custom domain name, such as yourname@yoursite.com, rather than a free personal email client such as businessname@gmail.com. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A business email is a must-have for businesses of all sizes and it comes with a number of benefits from credibility to security. Read on to learn how to create a business email address easily, in just a few minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A professional business email address has your company\u2019s custom domain name instead of the generic Gmail or Yahoo account. For example, jimmy@examplebusiness.com. Most beginners use generic free business email accounts without a domain name which isn\u2019t very professional. For example, jimmy.arnis@gmail.com. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A professional email is a must-have for businesses for a number of reasons. Since anyone can create these personal email accounts, it becomes harder for customers and other businesses to trust such email addresses as legitimate business email accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not only does it give you a way to separate your business email from your personal email, but it also looks more professional, is more memorable, offers more control, and enhances your security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s why every business should use a professional email address:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Professional communication demands professional email. On top of the above benefits, having a business email also opens the door to more integrations, email addresses (e.g., lastname@yourbusiness.com), and a more organized business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The best part is that you can get your own custom business email address for free, which means there is no excuse for not getting it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you want your customers and other businesses to take you seriously, then you need to start using a professional business email address, immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You will need to have a domain name and a website to create a free business email address. You will also need an email service provider to handle your business emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Email hosting is a service that hosts your email account and the files associated with it on a remote server. In addition to storing the emails and files, the email host also provides additional services such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each email hosting service provides different services and emphasizes different aspects of email management. You should choose one that meets your business email needs while also fitting your budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are a few different ways to create a business email address. These include using an email service provider such as Google Workspace or Microsoft Outlook or using an email hosting service, such as DreamHost or BlueHost. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Google Workspace is one of the world\u2019s most popular email service providers. It offers a very easy account setup, tons of features, and competitive pricing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have already used Gmail for personal email, the learning curve would be quite flat as the interface is the same. If you do not have a domain name, Google Workspace will also help you purchase it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can create a Google Workspace account for a free trial of 14 days in exchange for your credit card details and get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s how to create a business email address with Google Workspace:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once you have created your business email with Google Workspace, go ahead and add your custom email signature and add any integrations that would be helpful to you and your business, such as Calendly or DocuSign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Keep in mind that when you create a business email with Google Workspace you will automatically begin a free 14-day trial. Hence, you can use the time to decide if it\u2019s the right email service provider for you, and if you want to try another email hosting service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Google offers professional business email addresses with Google Workspace (formerly G Suite), which includes Gmail and other productivity tools like Docs, Sheets, Drive, Google Meet, and Calendar for businesses. This method is not free, but it allows you to use a Gmail account for your professional business email with your own business name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While there\u2019s a small cost, it comes with many advantages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It also comes with all the best email functionality that you need. It includes a smart spam filter, conditional email forwarding, two-factor authentication for security, integrations with Google Apps, and a whole lot more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This method is easy and available to almost everyone who has a website. It allows you to create a business email address for free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When creating a small business website, you will need to buy a domain and sign up for web hosting. However, what most beginners don\u2019t know is that lots of WordPress hosting companies offer a free business email service as part of the package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Normally, a domain name costs 14.99 per year, and website hosting starts from $7.99 per month. And, if you were to use a paid email service, then you can add another $5 per email account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Luckily, Bluehost, one of the largest WordPress hosting companies in the world, offers WPBeginner users a free domain name and a 60% discount on hosting. This means you can start your business website for $2.75 per month (and it comes with a free business email address).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To use Bluehost<\/a> to set up your Business email, you will first need to create a business address (domain name).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here are some quick tips on choosing the perfect domain name for your business email address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n HostGator is a super affordable hosting company that can double as an email service provider, as it gives you free business email accounts with any hosting plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019ll take about 5 minutes for HostGator to set up your account. When the icon turns blue, you\u2019re good to start setting up your business email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To get started, click Email Accounts on the right-hand side of your control panel. On this screen, here is what you need to do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Note: HostGator gives you unlimited storage on all plans, so we recommend that you set the size of your mailbox to Unlimited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Just to clarify \u2014 it\u2019s not possible to get a free business email address with a website domain on the end of it, like jimmy@businessyield.com. Instead, you can pay for website hosting to get a free email address that ends in your own custom domain name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Web hosts like Bluehost offer a free business email address with their hosting plans. And because these web hosting plans offer so much with them, including the free email address, they are \u2018nearly free\u2019 solutions to get you a business email address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You cannot create a free business email account without an email domain. You can create a free email account with Gmail, Outlook, and more. However, you cannot use your business name with these free email service providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSetup your Business Address<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
