Hi everyone,
When you create a new site and domain, whether for yourself or a client — what email addresses do you create?
It seems obvious to use "[email protected]", but that’s quickly flooded with spam.
It seems there are several types of addresses you’d need:
— The owner’s name @, for professional correspondence
— Support @
— Orders @
— Surveys @
— Info @ ??
I know it depends on the nature of the site. Just wondering if everyone uses info@, or if there’s a more professional yet succinct way to create an email structure.
This could be an interesting discussion, and I may write a blog post on the different points brought up. But mainly, I have several of my own sites, and am looking for some consistency without everything being info@.
Thanks!
Brett
yea I ask the client too. Most like having personal emails for team members and a generic one like "support" or "info" depending on what the company does.
one caught my eye the other day, when using a personal name as a domain name..
for example, people would like, [email protected] which I always found to be a bit bizarre. This guy however had [email protected].
ridiculously simple and glaringly obvious thing to use, but jeez.. so much nicer than saying your name twice in the same link.
Yea, I don’t have a "normal thing I do." I will normally make one email a catch-all account until it starts getting spammed.
I actually like that. I’ve got "ash {at} ashtonsanders.com". I met one guy who had something like "notchris {at} chris.com". I thought that was funny.
