How to Create a Professional Email Account

Check your plan allowance

The current hosting plans include between 5 and 50 professional email accounts depending on the selected plan.

Create an email account

1. Sign in to your hosting account and open cPanel.
2. Open Email Accounts. The exact label can vary slightly by cPanel version.
3. Select the domain you want the mailbox to use.
4. Enter the mailbox name, for example sales, support or a staff member's name.
5. Create a strong password and choose an appropriate mailbox storage limit where that option is available.
6. Save or create the account.

Read and connect your email

You can use the webmail option provided through cPanel or connect the mailbox to a supported mail application. Use the connection settings shown by cPanel for the specific account instead of guessing server names or ports.

Professional email practices

• Use role-based addresses such as billing@, sales@ or support@ when appropriate.
• Use unique passwords for every mailbox.
• Remove or secure old employee accounts promptly.
• Do not use hosting email for unsolicited bulk messaging.
