In addition to hosting your website, hosting packages also host your business’ emails. With your hosting package, you will be able to create email accounts with your website’s domain e.g. account@yourdomain.com.au. Using email accounts with your domain makes your business look bigger and more professional compared to a @gmail.com, @hotmail.com or other email domains.
When choosing your hosting package, keep an eye out for the following:
Number of email accounts
The number of email accounts you need depends on your individual business needs. Usually, the more employees you have, the more email accounts you will need for your business.
Redsteps Web offers unlimited email accounts on all our website packages!
Number of emails that you can send out per hour
Website hosting packages have a limit on the number of emails you can send out each hour. Analysing how often your business uses emails for communicating with your team members and customers can give you an indication on which limits work for you.
All our website packages allow you to send up to 1000 emails each hour.
Keep in mind, that if you are sending out bulk emails to customers e.g., the same email to many people, it is better to use an email sending tool such as Campaign Monitor or Mail Chimp to prevent you being blacklisted.
