Creating an email account with your own domain

An address such as info@yourcompany.com builds trust in your business. For that you need an email service tied to your domain.

Before you start

• Make sure the MX record in your domain DNS settings points to your email service.
• Check how many email accounts your plan includes.

Steps (hosting control panel)

1. Open the email section in the panel.
2. Create a new email address and type the name (for example info).
3. Set a strong password: a mix of letters, digits and symbols.
4. Set the mailbox size if needed and save.
5. Sign in through webmail and send and receive a test email.

Good practice

• Use general addresses (info, support, sales) and personal addresses (name@).
• Create a separate account for each employee instead of sharing a password.
• Add SPF, DKIM and DMARC records so that your emails do not land in spam.
