Every guide for setting up Google Workspace email is a tutorial: sign up, verify the domain, add the MX records, done. They all skip the two parts that actually go wrong. The first is migration, getting years of existing mail, contacts, and calendars across without losing anything or breaking the address mid-week. The second is deliverability: the SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records that decide whether your mail lands in the inbox or the spam folder.

That second one is why so many freshly set-up business addresses get ignored. The tutorial gets you sending, but half your mail quietly goes to spam because the authentication records are missing or wrong. By the time you notice, you’ve already lost replies.

We do the whole thing for you, on Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, and we get the boring records right so your email is actually trusted.

Where DIY setups fall down

Three jobs the tutorials skip

Setup and domain

We create the accounts, connect your domain, verify ownership, and add the MX records so mail flows. Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, whichever fits how you already work.

Migration

We move existing email, contacts, and calendars from your old provider, Gmail, Outlook, cPanel mail, or an old host, with no gap in service and nothing left behind. You keep your history.

Deliverability

SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configured properly, so receiving servers trust your mail and it lands in inboxes. This is the step that keeps a new domain out of the spam folder, and the one DIY guides leave out.

Anyone can get email sending in an afternoon. The migration and the authentication records are where time gets lost and replies go missing, which is exactly the part we own.

What the setup covers

Everything from blank domain to working inbox

One fixed-scope job that gets you from "we just bought the domain" to "the whole team is on business email that works." Workspace or Microsoft 365, your call, and we'll advise if you're unsure.

Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 account creation and plan selection
Domain connection and ownership verification
MX records configured so mail routes correctly
User mailboxes, aliases, and shared addresses like sales@ and info@
Migration of existing email, contacts, and calendars with no downtime
SPF record set so your sending servers are authorised
DKIM signing turned on and published, so mail is cryptographically signed
DMARC policy set to protect your domain from spoofing
Mail client and phone setup for the team, if you want it
A deliverability test to confirm you're landing in inboxes before we sign off
What you get

Working email and proof it's trusted

You end up with email that works on every device and the evidence that it's authenticated properly, plus the notes to manage it yourself afterwards.

01

A working setup

Every mailbox live, mail flowing on all devices, old history migrated and searchable. No gap between the old system and the new one.

02

Deliverability report

Proof that SPF, DKIM, and DMARC pass, with a test send showing you're landing in the inbox and not the spam folder.

03

A DNS record sheet

Every record we added, written down, so you or your IT person know exactly what's set and why.

04

A short handover

How to add a user, reset a password, and read a bounce, so day-to-day admin doesn't need us.

How it runs

Three steps, two to three days

We plan the cutover around your working hours so mail keeps flowing the whole way through. No weekend with a dead inbox.

1

Plan and provision

We pick the plan, create the accounts, and set up the domain and users while your old mail keeps running untouched.

Day 1
2

Migrate and authenticate

We move mail, contacts, and calendars across, then set SPF, DKIM, and DMARC and let DNS propagate.

Day 1-2
3

Cut over and test

We flip the MX records, confirm delivery both ways, run the deliverability test, and set up your devices.

Day 2-3
Pricing

Fixed setup fee, licences billed by the provider

Setup starts at $190 for a single domain with up to three mailboxes: accounts, domain, MX, and full SPF/DKIM/DMARC. Setup plus migration of your existing mail is $390 and covers moving history across from the old provider for the whole team.

Workspace and Microsoft 365 licences are paid to Google or Microsoft directly, around $6-7 per user per month; we don’t mark them up. We quote the setup fee before we start.

Mail still going to spam after someone else set it up?

If your email already exists but lands in spam or gets bounced, you may not need a full setup, just the authentication fixed. We’ll audit the SPF, DKIM, and DMARC and put it right; if that’s all it needs, it’s well under the setup price. Tell us what’s happening and we’ll quote the actual fix.

Where this fits

How this connects to the rest of the stack

This is the hosted-email side of our email deliverability services. If you’d rather run your own mail server than pay per mailbox, the self-hosted route, Postfix with the same SPF/DKIM/DMARC discipline, is covered in mail setup on a Linux server. To see everything we do around Google Workspace and Microsoft 365, including ongoing admin, start at the hosted email overview. And if your real problem is that your domain’s mail keeps getting spoofed or blocklisted, that overlaps with our website security services.

When senders on Workspace or 365 keep failing authentication, our one-time deliverability fix gets SPF, DKIM and DMARC passing together. On WordPress specifically, start with our WordPress transactional email setup.

Not sure what these records do? We explain email authentication in plain English first.
