We focus on hosting what matters (your site!) and leave inboxes to the folks who do it best. Whether you already have domain-based email or need to set it up fresh, here’s what to do (scroll to the section that applies to you).
👉 Already have a business email?
Nice. Keep it right where it is. If you’re already using email at your domain (like [email protected]), there’s no need to move a thing.
When you connect your domain or move your website to staXscale, your existing email can stay put. Just double-check your DNS (specifically the MX records) to make sure they still point to your current provider (Google Workspace, Rackspace, Zoho, whomever).
Need a sanity check? Open a support ticket and we’ll peek at your records to confirm your mail’s still flowing.
👉 Need a business email set up?
No shame in that – let’s fix it! You’ll want a third-party email host that’s secure, reliable, and won’t flag every message as spam. We recommend:
| Provider | Why We Like It | Learn More |
|---|---|---|
| Google Workspace | Industry standard, dead-simple setup, works everywhere. | Set up with Google Workspace |
| Zoho Mail | A solid low-cost alternative for small teams. | Set up with Zoho Mail |
Once you’ve created your account, follow the setup guide sent to you from your selected provider to update your domain’s DNS. If your domain’s DNS is managed through staXscale, we can double-check your records before you go live. Otherwise, we’ll walk you through what to update where your domain lives.
PRO TIP: Use transactional email services
Listen, if you don’t know about transactional email services, it’s a newer way to make sure you land in more inboxes. If you’re sending receipts or any sort of urgent notifications, it’s a must.
How it all fits together
Your website and your email don’t have to live in the same place, they just need to talk nicely. staXscale keeps your site fast, secure, and online. Your email provider keeps your inbox professional, private, and running smoothly.
Think of it like a healthy relationship – separate responsibilities, total harmony.
