How to get a business email with my own domain name

Register a domain, then connect it to a mail provider: Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 for around ₦3,000 to ₦6,000 per person per month, or your host’s mailbox for less. You can be sending from name@yourbusiness.com within a day. The domain matters more than the provider: it is the part customers read.

A quotation sent from a Gmail address is a quotation that has to survive a doubt. Nobody tells you they hesitated: they simply take longer to reply, or they ask a question they would not have asked a supplier whose email carried their own name.

What it costs and how long it takes

The domain is ₦8,000 to ₦20,000 a year. Mailboxes are ₦3,000 to ₦6,000 per person per month with the major providers, and less if you use the mailbox included with your hosting.

Setup is a day, most of which is waiting for the domain records to spread. Moving your existing mail across is the part worth doing carefully.

The part almost everyone gets wrong

Having the address is not the same as having it arrive. Three records: SPF, DKIM and DMARC: tell receiving servers which computers are allowed to send as you. Without them your invoices land in spam, and worse, anyone can send email that appears to come from your business.

This is invisible until it costs you something. It is also the fastest thing on this page to fix, and we check it for free.

Which provider to choose

If your team already lives in Google, use Google Workspace. If they live in Word and Excel, use Microsoft 365. For one or two people who mainly need a professional address, the mailbox included with your hosting is enough.

Nobody has ever chosen a supplier because of their email provider. They have chosen against one because of the address.

Common follow-up questions

How much does business email cost in Nigeria?+

Around ₦3,000 to ₦6,000 per person per month with Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, plus ₦8,000 to ₦20,000 a year for the domain. Hosting-included mailboxes cost less and are enough for one or two people.

Can I keep my Gmail address as well?+

Yes. Most businesses forward the old address into the new one for a while so nothing is missed. What matters is which address you send from.

Why do my emails go to spam?+

Usually because SPF, DKIM and DMARC are missing or wrong on your domain. Receiving servers cannot confirm the mail is really from you, so they treat it as suspicious. It is a DNS change, not a rebuild.
