Why pay for email?

Many people use free email services such as Gmail, Yahoo, or Outlook, but they don't realize the benefits of having a paid email service. There are a few good reasons why you might pay for an email service. If you've never considered it, you'll soon see why it might be worthwhile to invest in a paid email service.

Ads

The most obvious of reason: many free email services come with ads. This can be distracting and annoying. It can also slow down the load time of email web applications. Ever notice your mail service's website feeling a little sluggish? Paid services like Minmail typically offer ad-free experiences.

Tracking

Ever heard the saying: If aren't paying for the product, you are the product? If it's not the advertisers tracking you and harvesting your data, it's the email provider themselves. To use another idiom: There's no such thing as a free lunch.

Customer Support

Free email services typically offer limited (if any) customer support. If users have an issue or question, they may not have anyone to contact for help. Paid services, on the other hand, often offer customer support through phone, email or chat.

Feature restrictions

If you have several domains, you may be limited in the number of external domains you can add to your account, or have to pay extra for external domains or other features.
