A business email is an email address marked in a way that makes it clear that it comes from a company and communicates from which company it comes. In practice, that usually means that it is an email address that was set up with the domain name of a company.

If the term is not known to you, the domain name is the URL on which the company’s website resides. So if your company’s website is www.xyz.com, it would look like a business email address like name@xyz.com.

After registering your business domain name, setting up a business email is a step that will come. But setting up your email is a good step to tackle next, once you have a domain name for your business.
