Email Hosting

Professional Business Email Setup

Your team is probably still sending client emails from a personal Gmail address, or from an address that doesn’t match the website you paid to have built. Either one is a small thing that quietly costs you trust: a customer types your domain into the address bar, sees a real site, and then gets an email from an address that looks like it came from someone’s college inbox. We set up professional business email that matches your domain, running on Google Workspace rather than something we host ourselves, so you’re on infrastructure built to stay up. If you want to know what it’d take to get your team onto real @yourcompany email, send us your domain and we’ll look.

How the Work Actually Gets Done

We start by looking at what you’ve actually got: your domain registrar, whatever email you’re using today, and however many personal accounts and forwarding rules have piled up standing in for a real setup. From there we set up your accounts on Google Workspace and configure your domain’s records so mail sends and receives correctly from day one.

If you’re moving from an existing email provider, we migrate everything over, inbox history included, during a window timed so nobody’s mid-email when it happens. By the time your team logs back in, their new address is live and their old messages are already there.

We Configure the Parts Most Setups Skip

A lot of business email setups stop at “the account works.” Two records do most of the heavy lifting behind the scenes: SPF, which tells other mail servers your domain is allowed to send from Google’s servers, and DKIM, which signs every message so it can’t be quietly altered in transit. Both get turned on because Google requires the basics, but the deeper enforcement layer that actually stops someone from spoofing your domain gets left at monitoring-only, if anyone touches it at all. Skip or half-finish that setup and two things go wrong: your customers’ mail providers start routing your emails to spam instead of the inbox, and it gets easier for someone to send a fake invoice that appears to come from your own address. We configure SPF and DKIM correctly and take enforcement all the way to full, not left half-finished, so your mail actually lands where it’s supposed to, for you and for the people you’re emailing.

What It Costs to Get This Wrong

Business email compromise cost US companies just over $3 billion in reported losses in 2025 alone, across roughly 25,000 incidents, averaging around $123,000 per case. That’s rarely an obviously fake phishing email. More often it’s a domain with no enforced protection getting spoofed convincingly enough that someone’s accounts payable team wires money to the wrong place. There’s a quieter cost too: even a provider as large as Google isn’t immune, a widespread outage in June 2025 knocked out Gmail alongside several other Google services for hours, and the businesses that weathered it without losing real ground were the ones who’d set things up properly beforehand, not the ones scrambling to figure out their own domain records mid-outage.

Frequently Asked Questions About Email Hosting & Migration

We price it per mailbox, plus a flat fee for setup and migration, and a separate ongoing rate if you want us managing the account after launch instead of just handing it off. The exact numbers depend on how many people need accounts and how messy the migration is, so we’ll give you a real quote after we’ve looked at what you have, not before.

No, and that’s on purpose. We set your accounts up on Google Workspace, a provider with infrastructure and uptime we can’t match on our own, and configure everything to work correctly on your domain. You get the reliability of a major provider with none of the guesswork of setting it up yourself.

Yes. We move your mailboxes, including existing message history, over to the new setup during a low-traffic window so nothing gets lost and nobody’s locked out mid-workday. Worst case, a message sent in the exact minute of the switch takes a few extra minutes to land.

Yes, and if you don’t, that’s the first thing we help you sort out. Your domain should always be something you own directly, since it’s what ties your website and your email together and what you’d use to move providers again later if you ever needed to.

Either way works. Some clients want us handling ongoing management, adding and removing users, troubleshooting, keeping security settings current, and others just want a clean handoff once it’s running. We’ll set it up either way, you just tell us which one you want.

It keeps working. Your accounts live directly with Google, not with us, so nothing depends on an ongoing relationship with Local Leap. We’ll hand over full documentation and admin access if you ever want to manage it yourself or bring in someone else.
