Business Email Mailboxes
Is your email professional?
As a small business owner, it’s important to maintain a professional image and build trust with your customers. One way to do this is by using a professional business email instead of a personal email address such as [email protected]
Having a professional business email shows that you take your business seriously and are dedicated to providing quality products or services. It also allows you to easily separate your business communications from your personal emails, making it easier to stay organized and focused on your work.
Additionally, using a proper business email can help improve your company’s online presence and search engine optimization. Search engines are more likely to rank websites with business email addresses higher in search results, which can increase visibility and attract more potential customers to your business.

[email protected]
Using a professional business email is an important step for small business owners to take in order to improve their image and online presence.
While there are significant benefits to using a business suite from Google or Microsoft, sometimes you just need to keep it simple. We offer secure and ad-free email linked to your business domain.
Our email works with all mail clients, including those from Microsoft, Google, Apple and Mozilla and also includes webmail, so you can view your messages anywhere – a great fallback if your email client or device develops a problem
It uses IMAP, so you can synchronise your mailboxes across desktop, tablet and mobile. Never misplace an email again.
We understand how important email is to business, so all our email is hosted away from our web hosting on rock-solid servers in our central UK data centres. All email is encrypted in transit using TLS for security and privacy.
Make the switch today and start building trust and credibility with your customers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Ordering & Payments
Q: Can I order and pay online each month?
A: Yes. All plan payments are online via Direct Debit or Stripe
Q: Can I pay in full instead of over time?
A: Yes. Choose the Pay in full option for websites or order a 3m or 12m Care Plan to receive a discount of up to 20%
Q: Who actually owns a website you create?
A: We retain ownership of the site (not your content) until the balance is paid off. At this point, website ownership will be transferred to you. We do not claim any IP over your site. We build on WordPress so the site can move with you.
Q: What happens after the first year of a Website Plan?
A: If you’d like us to continue managing, hosting and supporting your website, then you’ll move to a Care Plan. If, instead, you are leaving us at that stage (we’ve not had one yet), we’ll package and supply your site so you can transfer to your new provider.
Q: Are there any additional costs?
A: No. Our Website Plan prices are all published and fixed. Should your requirements change during the build there may be additional work needed and this will be discussed with you at the time if it requires an adjustment to your monthly fee.Support
Q: How do I make changes to my website?
A: You are free to make changes yourself to content to layouts using the Elementor builder, but with up to 60 minutes of support time available each month most of our clients ask us to do it.
Q: How do I get support?
A: Simply visit our ServiceDesk and log a request for our technical team to sort for you.
Q: If I don’t use my support time, does it roll over?
A: No, your support time is reset monthly
Q: What happens if I have outstanding changes to make and I run out of time?
A: For routine changes, we’ll finish them up for you, recording the additional time, (fair use applies). For bigger requests, we’ll ask you to purchase some TimeBank to cover the work.
Q: What can I ask for help with?
A: Anything. We can sort most routine issues out for you.Maintenance

A: Yes, free plugins are included in all plans. Premium (paid) plugins are included with Site Management Plans & bespoke websites.

A: Absolutely. You have full control over how you’ll site will look to make it perfectly fit your personality & brand.
Q: I don’t have a brand (or I don’t want to use it). Is this a problem?
A: It depends. We can build using what you have already but you might want our designers to create something fresh and new, from a simple logo redraw up to a full rebrand.Cancellation
