It doesn't really matter if you're a student, have your own business or are a permanent employee. You will undoubtedly send a lot of emails on a daily basis. Wouldn't it be much cooler if you did so with your own personalized email address, ending in your own domain name, rather than with a @gmail.com or @hotmail.com email address?
It's more professional
Emailing with your own domain name comes across as much more professional than emailing with a 'free' email address like @gmail.com or @hotmail.com. People will take you seriously.
Completely to your liking
When you create a 'free' email address, you hope that the name you want is still available. Unfortunately, this is often not the case, which is why many email addresses exist such as james1975@gmail.com. When you are going to email with your own domain name, then you can choose both before and after the @. For example: hello@james.com. So, you can choose your full email address yourself.
Look confident and make a good impression
I would trust hello@james.com more than james1975@gmail.com. What about you?
It's really yours!
A free email address like @gmail.com or @hotmail.com can be nice, but not when you depend on it. After all, the domain name doesn't belong to you. You may have an account with Google or Microsoft, but ultimately they determine whether you may continue to use those email addresses. We advise you to register your domain name yourself, so that you really own it and nobody can take it away from you.
Included with your domain name
When you buy your domain name at Site.eu, emailing is included with your domain name. At Site.eu much more is included with your domain name, for example: web hosting, SSL security and our website and online store builder. You do not have to pay extra for this.
