Free email accounts are
great if you want to hide your identity. They are great to sign up for free
stuff. They are also very popular for SPAM emails and due to this they also
filter too many non-spam emails as well. Ever wondered why you haven't heard
from a friend lately. All a sudden no more emails, not even the forwarded
jokes. Your friend just disappeared and you scratching your head what you
have done to tick him/her off.
Your friend didn't
disappear, only his/her emails are disappearing. No notice, no error
message, nothing, the email simply disappeared. The bad news is, there's not
much you can do about it. On the other hand you can still enjoy the free
emails if you switch to a lesser know email provider. Besides the big 3
Hotmail, Yahoo and Google, here's a list of smaller providers of free email
services.
Email Accounts For
Business Purpose
Did you know that with
every web hosting service you will also get enough email accounts to last
forever? Not only will an email address that ends in @yourdomain.com show
your professional approach to your online business it also gives you great
control over what messages you want to receive and which ones you want to
filter.
I set up my emails
into multiple accounts for business purposes. These accounts have a very
tight SPAM filter. I also have a couple of accounts for newsletter
sign up purposes where I don't filter at all. Yes I get a lot of SPAM there
as well, but these accounts are set up to receive everything. The nice side
effect of having many email addresses when you running an online business is
that you can test your email campaign beforehand.
Instead of guessing if
your response rate to an email campaign is due to the SPAM filters or your
headline simply sucks. You have piece of mind that your emails will make it
to your prospects, but apparently your headline is more or less a turn off.
One important factor
of advertising your business is the name recognition. Even people don't
remember your web site address they probably remember your name.
Unfortunately the chances to get your name as a domain name in the .com name
space are slim to none. Most of the other name spaces are filling quickly.
The good news is that there's a new name space just released, .ws, but you
need to hurry up. Although it is fairly new, domain names are going fast and
the longer you wait the less are your chances to get your personal domain
name.

sites or send me an email.
