Email hosting is a service of providing email accounts for a registered domain of an organization or an individual. For ex: abc@yourdomain.com. Free email services provider won’t allow you to host email accounts associated with your domain name. They usually allow you to create an email account of the name@mail-provider-domain.com type. There are many limitation with free email hosting providers as far as quality, security and offered mailbox size is concerned, there is also a limit on users concerned to number of emails sent per day.

Free E-mail Hosting vs. Paid E-mail Hosting

Although free hosting providers are gaining popularity day by day by offering great list of features, they are only beneficial for personal email correspondence. With free email service, every individual is able to create an email account however with paid email hosting service, email accounts can be created only with the associated domain name. Free email hosting service is not suited for business and corporate email needs as it cannot guarantee the security, uptime and reliability of the service they provide. Free email service also don’t offer technical support if there’s any issue.

With paid email hosting service, users can create and host their business and corporate email accounts with high level of security and reliability offered on the servers.
