What does a domain do?

Domains play a central role in the world of the Internet, as they enable the following functions:

  • Identification and access to a website: The domain determines the name under which a website can be accessed on the Internet. When you enter a domain in the address bar of your browser (e.g. https://ihre-eigene-domain.ch), you will be directed to the corresponding website. An overview of the available top-level domains at Emubox, as well as their prices, can be found on our website.

  • E-Mail: Domains can be used not only for websites but also for personal email addresses (e.g. name@ihre-eigene-domain.ch). In particular, for businesses, having a custom domain appears significantly more professional than an email address from free providers, where the provider's name appears in the domain part (after the @) of the email address (e.g. ihr.name@gmx.ch). You can also learn how to use your domain name for your personal email address on our website.

  • Image: Domains play an important role in branding. A domain name that closely matches the content and purpose of the website helps your customers easily find your website and immediately know who is behind it.
