For many, the option may simply be to updated their username to a name that is more professional - ie their full name. However to really make a point (and impact), why not purchase a domain, load a simple website and create your own personalised, professional emails.
So here's 3 reasons you need to use a professional email address
1. Your personal presentation matters
If you're looking to improve your personal profile, perhaps applying for new jobs, a personalised email address will be a great way to stand out from the crowd. Then using the domain to host some information about you (such as a resume) will allow people to find out a little more about you.
2. First impressions count
If you're a small business, having an email address from your own domain will be more professional and allow you to provide more exposure and credibility to your brand!
3. Low cost
With a domain costing as little as $10 per year; and hosting (for emails and websites) from as little as $5 a month, it's always a great time to create an online presence with your own domain, personalised email addresses and a website.
For those of you attached to Google's Gmail - there are also tools that allow you to continue using Gmail as your email client.
