Email hosting or Google Workspace?

Our email hosting gives you a set amount of storage shared across your mailboxes at a fixed monthly or annual price in rand. Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 charge per user and add office apps. We compare them in Google Workspace vs local email hosting. Already have a website with us? Every web hosting plan includes email accounts too.

Setting up your email

Our help centre has guides for Outlook, iPhone and iPad, Android and IMAP, POP3 and SMTP settings. If mail is going to spam, see SPF, DKIM and DMARC.

Kevin from web design hosting has been excellent to work with for the last 10 years. He handled the design and hosting of our website for Zeek Gold and made the whole process easy from start to finish. He’s responsive, explains things clearly, and always follows through on what he promises. He built / redesigned our site at zeekgold.co.za, and whenever we’ve needed changes or help, he’s sorted it…
