1. Introduction: An Email hosting service is an
Internet hosting service that operates email servers. Almost all webhosting
providers offer standard Email hosting. The technology and offerings of
different email hosting providers can vary to suit different needs. If you have
your own website, you will probably want to have Email addresses at your own
domain, just like info@badanbarman.in. This type of Email can be achieved
through Email hosting, sometimes also known as custom Email address,
professional Email, business Email or premium Email.
2. Need of an Email Hosting: Business Mail enables you to
establish a professional identity in your day-to-day communication with clients
and boosts business’ credibility. It can help to build a brand in the eyes of
your customer. Some of the needs of having a Business Mail are as follows-
a) Denote Professional Image and Care:
Today’s customers are always on the go and are usually pressed for time.
Therefore, effective way of branding should start with sending an Email
communications to their inbox that should give your business a competitive
advantage. Premium Email address makes you and your business more memorable in
your customers’ eyes. It helps to build a brand. It can be used by companies to
indicate a higher level of professional care and service to the user.
b) Taking Control: When you have your own Business
Email addresses you also have full control over them. You can easily create new
Email address for new employees or remove inactive ones or the Email ids of
those employees who left the organization. You can select your business Email
address such as info@YourDomain.org, you can select Email addresses for various
departments such as DigitalLibrary@YourDomain.org. All these provide more
clarity to the users when they communicate with you as opposed to routing all
communications to one free Email address.
c) More Features: The business Email will have increased
storage and additional features like virus scanning, spam protection, backup
recovery, dedicated human support staff instead of automatic support systems
and power features geared for business and professional use.
3. Email Hosting Service Providers: All popular
companies of the World stop using the free Email long ago because having a
business Email address helps business to have a professional outlook. Using
free Email addresses, such as Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, Rediffmail could position
your business as spam and give potential customers the view that your business
is not properly established or credible. In selecting business Email, you have
two options- free Email hosting and paid Email hosting.
a) Free Email Hosting: Free Email hosting provides
business Email at free of cost. In this category Zoho and G Suite for Education
are popular.
i) Zoho Mail: Zoho Mail (https://www.zoho.com/mail/) is one of the best free Email
hosting service provider over the web for anyone that owns a domain. Zoho Mail is

synchronization and is free for up to 10 users (means ten email address) with
the mailboxes of 5GB storage each. Zoho Mail never displays ads. This is almost
unheard of in the world of free Email accounts not to talk about business
Email, and it is an extremely attractive characteristic. This means total
respect for user privacy as the messages will not be scanned for keywords to
feed advertisement. Zoho Mail includes familiar items like folders and labels,
flags, automatic filters, as well as thread nesting style conversation view.
The hardest part of Zoho Mail is to find out the signup page for free account
as it is very difficult to locate. Probably Zoho hides this option to gear people
toward its premium Email hosting service. You can find the free version of Zoho
