Zoho Is a Great Alternative Hosted Email Service
/in News/by gary@garyrivers.netIt’s become apparent to any company that uses email today, that the number one concern is security.
You can’t go a day without reading about another hacked company. You need only look at the 2016 Presidential election to know the damage that can be done when someone hacks into your emails.
Website-Hosted Email Service
When your website is on a shared hosting environment, the easiest way to handle your email is to have it also hosted on the same server — It’s a serve that is offered by every hosting company, from bluehost to godaddy, etc.
It’s not the best way to do it.
Chances are, those email servers are rudimentary at best. And their security leaves much to be desired.
First of all, your on a shared server. You don’t know who else is hosting their website on your server. They could be a spammer. They could have less security than you and become a “host” of a hacker — who is using it for their illegal operations. No Matter what, it becomes quite easy for you to get on an “email blacklist”.
You can’t afford to have that happen.
After an exhaustive search for a simple solution, I arrived at Zoho.
Zoho is perfect for getting your feet wet into hosted email.
It’s easy to setup and it’s free!
Easy setup. It took me about 30 minutes on my first try to get my email set up for this website. Anyone hosting with xtremeimarketing.com can have their email’s switched at no charge— it’s part of our service.
Here’s what you get for free:
5GB /UserMailbox Storage
5GB /UserDocs Storage
1 Host domain (your domain)
25 email addresses
Online Office Apps
Docs desktop sync
If you need more, I suggest you compare ZOHO with Outlook365. both have their benefits.
