Email Inboxes

Professional Email accounts are an essential for any business, giving your business the professional edge over free hotmail/gmail accounts. They can be set up very simply. We generally deal with 3 kinds of email:

1. Email Forwarding

Cost: Included with Hosting

If you already have an email address, you can have emails forwarded from any address on your domain to your existing email accounts. For example, you could forward emails from info@yourdomainname.co.uk to your existing businessname@hotmail.com address. Email forwarding is provided free with any web hosting account.

2. Standard Email Accounts

Cost: £20 a year per inbox

For anyone that needs to be able to reply from their business address, a standard 2GB email account is perfect and costs just £20 a year per account. Emails accounts can be set up in popular email apps like Outlook, Thunderbird and on all mobile devices including iPhone and Android.

3. Microsoft Exchange Email

Cost: from £99 a year per inbox (or £9 a month)

For most of our customers, the standard email account is sufficient, but some of our busier customers opt for a Microsoft Exchange email which gives a much bigger inbox and access to Microsoft's calendar system among other benefits. Exchange emails cost from £9 a month (12 month contract), or £99 a year.
