In today’s world, one of the most basic communication tools, regardless of business or personal purposes, is e-mails. Of course, we do our e-mail communication in the business world not from personal e-mail addresses, but from e-mail addresses we have created for our organization.
In this communication process, convincing and influencing the other party depends not only on our message, but also on the appearance and impression of our e-mail address. The most fundamental piece of email addresses that make a good impression lies in the domain name. So, what is an e-mail address with a domain extension, how do I get one?
What is a domain name?
Before moving on to e-mail addresses with domain extensions, it is useful to understand what ‘domain name’ means. A domain name is the name that is associated with a physical IP address on the internet and appears after the “www.” sign in web addresses and the “@” sign in e-mails.
Every internet user has the right to purchase a domain name. However, a domain name can only be purchased by an individual/legal entity. For example, today no one else can buy the domain name “webtekno.com” because this domain name is already registered.
What is an email address with a domain extension?
The e-mail address with the domain extension actually covers all e-mail addresses. Each e-mail address has a domain name after the “@” sign. The following domain names are most common for free and especially personal use:
- gmail.com
- outlook.com
- yandex.com
- icloud.com
- yahoo.com
- zoho.com
- expertposta.com
These e-mail domain names are offered to every user who opens an account in the services (Google, Apple, etc.) without charge, and the part before the domain name is determined by the user (like [email protected]).
However, companies, individuals and organizations that provide services within their own company can also specify custom e-mail domains. Domain name providers have to be paid to set custom e-mail domains.
By specifying a custom domain name, custom business e-mails can also be offered to all employees within a company. For example, employees under the umbrella of Webtekno can communicate via e-mails with the domain “[email protected]”.
Why is an email address with a domain extension important?
A domain extension is essential for credibility and reputation on the Internet, in personal and business communications. Briefly speaking, the domain names in your email can provide the following benefits:
- Demonstrating the professionalism of your workplace/business.
- Confidence to the other party.
- To have high security in received and sent e-mails.
- To ensure that all employees under a company umbrella have a standard e-mail address.
- Facilitate internal communication.
- Creating additional advertising and awareness of your brand name.
How to get an e-mail address with a domain extension?
If you want to receive an e-mail with a domain extension specific to yourself or your company, there are many popular services you can refer to. The main differences between these services lie in pricing, quality and scope of service offered, and storage per email address.
The e-mail providers with domain extensions that you can choose today are as follows:
- Expert Mail
- Google Workspace
- GoDaddy
- Natro
- Hosting
- Hostinger
- Turktrade
- Wix
To determine the platform you will receive service from, you can compare the price, storage space, features offered by the packages and extra features such as deleted email recovery and MAPI support.
After choosing the platform, there is an important factor that you need to take into account. You can get an e-mail service with an extension on a domain name you have purchased before, or if you are not a domain name owner, you can get both a domain name and an e-mail address with a domain name extension.
Let’s talk about how you can get a custom e-mail with a domain name extension, as an example, through Expert Mail.
If you have previously purchased a domain name:
If you have previously purchased a domain name for yourself or your company, you can also use this domain name in your emails. For this, you can list your domain name in the required information box on the platform where you will purchase the service.
After purchasing your service, you can create different e-mail addresses on the domain name you purchased and edit the settings through the service provider.
If you have never purchased a domain name:
- This domain name cannot be purchased because Webtekno.com is registered.
If you have not purchased a domain name based on the brand name you have in mind, you can purchase both the domain name and the domain name for emails at the same time. After visiting the platforms that offer these services at the same time, the first thing you should do is to question whether the domain name in your mind has been registered by someone else before.
If the domain name is idle, you need to purchase the domain name first. It should be noted that domain registrations are generally more expensive than purchasing domain extension email services. Of course this will depend on the extension you want along with the domain name.
After you register your domain name, the next step will be to reach the e-mail services page of the platform you receive service from. On this page, you can register e-mail addresses with domain extensions on the domain you purchased.
Depending on the scope of the domain name extension and e-mail service you will purchase, the platforms may also request some special information and documents from you. It is imperative that you present this information and documents accurately and completely.
Another point to be reminded is that the platforms from which you will purchase domain name and e-mail service may be independent of each other. You can optimize your services better by choosing the most suitable platform for you after price and service comparisons.
