Electronic mail (email or e-mail) is a communication protocol of the internet. It provides the ability send and receive messages to/from other people. As a business it is recommended to setup an email address so all possible channels of communications are covered.
It is easy to setup a email using @gmail, @yahoo or @hotmail as it is a free service but to increase professionalism, it is recommended to use emails from a domain name for your business. Usually the business name is part of the domain name. For example "John Smiths Turkey Delivery" could be "turkeydelivery.com.au". With an email address of "john.smith@turkeydelivery.com.au" or "contact@turkeydelivery.com.au"
To setup a business email with a domain name you will require two things
- Registration of a domain name for the business.
- Email Service Provider
