Email with your own domain name

You can use your own email address for personal purposes, for your business or for your freelance projects. An email address is often the collection point for your tasks, your daily work, and your messages. Finally, you can use email to enter business appointments and use your email address to create accounts at many different websites and more.

An email address can be created for free with providers like Google and Microsoft. At MijnHostingPartner.nl, you can already have not only your own email address, but also your own domain name for a low annual price. What exactly does all this mean? And what exactly does it all look like? We'll cover that in this blog post.

Your own domain name, what exactly is that?

Most people will probably have their own email address, as you can create one for free with a variety of providers such as Gmail, Outlook.com, proton and many others. However, you will then always have an email address that ends in the domain name of whoever is hosting it. The familiar @gmail.com, @hotmail.com, @gmx.co.uk, etc. For a personal email account this may not be a problem, but it can seem unprofessional if you need to give it to a client, because with your own domain name you can use your email address exclusively through your branding. So if you take MijnHostingPartner.nl as an example, you can use the email address in :

info@mijnhostingpartner.nl towards your customers. You don't necessarily have to use info@ for your email address, you can set this up yourself. You can do something more fun and informal like hello@, or use your own name or just your first name for it. Otherwise, this is a blank canvas.

A domain name can be registered freely as long as it is not occupied by another party. You can check this immediately via the domain name configurator at MijnHostingPartner.nl, if no option to move the domain name appears, then you can be sure that the domain name is still free to register. This is because this is checked in real time with the organizations behind it. The extension of the domain name is also of great importance for your target group. Depending on where this target group is located, you can adjust your domain name extension accordingly, so for example for the Dutch market .nl, internationally for .com and within the European Union for .eu. There are many other extensions as well. Check the domain name configurator to see which extension best suits your needs.

Working with your email addresses

To work with your email addresses, you can use your favorite email client or webmail. You can access your email from any device that supports an internet browser by simply going to the webmail link. Regardless of whether you use a computer, phone or tablet. Here you can check your emails and reply to messages. Would you rather set up the email address in a program or app like Outlook or IOS? Then that is also possible by setting up the email account here. We have described in detail how to do this for most programs in our knowledge base. For some of them, we have even created an instructional video. If you still don't succeed or your favorite program is not listed in the knowledge base, you can always contact us.

Moreover, you also have a calendar in the webmail that you can manage and you can edit it on any device, as long as you can log in to the webmail. It is also possible to set up the calendar with CardDav and CalDav on your different devices. This way you can view the calendar in multiple places.

Smart SPAM filters are also active, which detect and flag possible SPAM, after which you can choose to move or delete these messages immediately. This way, your mailbox is safe.

In the background, we also apply a number of technical security measures that further protect you from abuse and malicious parties. For example, a DKIM and DMARC certificate is active in the DNS by default. This also provides additional verification that the mails you receive come from good sources. Mails that do not meet the requirements are quarantined by default. Or even ignored completely. You can also customize this yourself if you see it differently.

Unlimited email addresses, forwarding and more

A mail package or total package with us gives you a lot of freedom, as you can create unlimited mail accounts, mail forwarders and more. The only limitation we apply is the size of the package. If you consume more than 15 GB in the mail package, you can expand this further with an add-on.

This way, you can use your mails at any time without any worries.

Easy expansion of the website possibilities

An email package, which is our most affordable package, can also be extended to a package with website options. With both a regular Total Hosting package and an SSD Total Hosting package, this is possible and you'll have everything you need for website, email and databases. With these packages, you'll be able to use a wide range of websites and techniques. From the well-known WordPress content management system to classic ASP.NET websites.
