Cheapest company to buy a domain name with basic  email (to be forwarded to Gmail)?

Buy the domain from https://www.namesilo.com/

Use the zoho free plan for free email https://www.zoho.com/mail/zohomail-pricing.html

If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Was looking at this.


Do they do the spoof prevention.


And you can only use their webmail platform. I used migadu, but now they charge for mail

Why is that better then GoDaddy?

Usually cheaper

Yes of course

Was looking at this.

Do they do the spoof prevention.

And you can only use their webmail platform. I used migadu, but now they charge for mail

I also used migadu for a bit for a now defunct domain so the fact that they started charging didn't matter to me. The zoho email is forwarded to my gmail, I can count on one hand the number of times I actually logged into the zoho webapp over the past few years.

Depends on the extension and namesilo gives you free privacy godaddy does not.

Its not true. Sorry.
I called Godaddy to find out. Email forwarding ( with out replying) is $3.
A whole email to forward and to respond is $72 a year.

I saw the Zoho Plan is that better then using Google for everything. Since with Google, Domain costs $12 & then you can set up Domain forwarding and domain sending just shows up as [inbox name] via Gmail.com

I don't get it. Why would someone get a domain just for emails?

Afaik that's the only way. But do you plan on having a website or only buying the domain so you can have that email?

So that's what I'm asking. Why not use a regular email.

I personally always check the domain of an email to see the website.

What do you mean by regular email? gmail acct?

1) I always want to own the website of my business name. Even if I dont have the need for a site right now. Last thing I need is having a competitor snatch it for $1 and redirect business.
2) It looks more professional to have whacked1@whacked1.com rather then whacked1@gmail.
3) I want to own employees emails. I dont wnat them using their personal email 
4) The cost is very efficient
