An email with your own domain has several benefits, such as strengthening your brand identity, increasing the security of your communications and the deliverability of your emails, and also allowing better organization and standardization of your messages, conveying a trustworthy image to clients and partners.
What is a domain?
Basically, it is the address or URL of your website (for example: yourbrand.com).
A domain is a unique and easy-to-remember name that works as the address of a website on the internet, replacing the complex numerical IP address. It is composed of a name (such as “mycompany”) and an extension (such as “.com” or “.com.br”), and it is essential for users to easily find a web page or an online service.
How can I get my own domain?
To obtain the URL of your website (yourbrand.com), you need to purchase the domain through an external platform outside of edrone, such as RegistroBR, Locaweb, GoDaddy, among others.
After acquiring a domain, it is possible to create email accounts with it (for example: support@yourbrand.com or marketing@yourbrand.com.br). For this, you need an email hosting service.
What is an email hosting service or mail server and what is it for?
An email hosting service or mail server is a system that sends, receives, and stores email messages for one or more users or companies, using their domain for personalized emails such as “name@yourcompany.com”. It provides a professional and customized communication platform, allowing the management of email accounts, control of information, and record of interactions, which is essential for the image and operation of businesses.
What it does:
Sends emails:
When you send a message, the SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) server processes the email and forwards it to the recipient’s server.
Receives and stores emails:
The recipient’s mail server receives the message and stores it in their inbox.
Allows access to emails:
The user can access their emails using an email client (such as Gmail or Outlook) that connects to the server using protocols like IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol).
