It’s amazing how many businesses don’t use their own domain name for their email, instead using a webmail service or their Internet Service Provider’s email account. It leaves a far better impression to have an email address like mail@marysshoes.com.au than to have marysshoes@bigpond.com. An even poorer impression comes from businesses who have addresses like marysshoes@gmail.com.

Having your own domain name shows that your business is professional, proud of its brand and wants to be taken seriously. It also allows you to change your ISP without losing your email address.

Your own email address is extremely easy to setup, you purchase a domain name from a registrar and either redirect it to another email address or obtain email hosting. Most registrars will provide email hosting for a small additional fee. Alternatively, if you don’t want to setup your own email yourself you can call Carter Tech and we can do it for you!
