What is email hosting and why do I need it for my business?
To send and receive emails, you need a special place that stores them—kind of like a mailbox, but on the internet.
Email hosting is like renting a super secure and reliable mailbox where your emails are stored and managed. Instead of using a free email service like Gmail or Yahoo, email hosting lets you have a custom email address, like yourname@yourcoolwebsite.com.au, instead of yourname@gmail.com.
Businesses and professionals use email hosting to look more professional and have more control over their emails. It's like having your own fancy email system instead of using a free one that everyone else uses!
I use and recommend Google Workspace for email hosting.
Why I recommend Google Workspace
Imagine you have a big digital tool box filled with all the apps you need for your business —like notebooks, pens, a calculator, and a planner. Google Workspace is kind of like that, but for work online!
It includes apps like:
📧 Gmail – for sending emails
📂 Google Drive – for saving and sharing files
📝 Google Docs – for writing and editing documents
📊 Google Sheets – for making spreadsheets (like for tracking chores or money)
📅 Google Calendar – for keeping track of important dates
💻 Google Meet – for video calls and meetings
It’s like a super-powered online office where people can work together from anywhere! Instead of saving files on one computer, everything is stored in the cloud, meaning you can access your stuff from any device with the internet.
Businesses use Google Workspace to make teamwork easier and more organised!
