Your domain

Business launch kit
Launch with the essentials. Add the rest when you need it.
Secure your business name online, set up professional email, and choose the website path that fits how you want to work—without buying a pile of tools you are not ready to use.
Start with what customers need to recognize and reach you. Add more tools as the business becomes more established.

The launch essentials
Three things make a new business look established online.
They do different jobs: the domain gives the business an address, professional email gives communication a business identity, and the website gives customers a place to learn or act.
Professional email
A business address such as [email protected] instead of relying only on a personal inbox.
A website path
Choose an easy builder if you want to manage the site yourself, or WordPress when you need more flexibility.

Choose your website path
Builder or WordPress? Start with how you want to manage the site.
Both can put the business online. The better choice depends on whether you want simplicity or expect to need more customization.
Website Builder
Best when you want to create and maintain a straightforward site yourself without managing a more technical website stack.
- Good for services, portfolios, appointments, and basic business sites
- Mobile-friendly site-building approach
- Designed for easier day-to-day editing
WordPress
Better when you expect custom themes, plugins, more complex content, or developer involvement.
- More flexibility for customized site structures
- Useful when a designer or developer is involved
- A stronger fit when the site is likely to grow in complexity
Already have a site or developer? You may need hosting rather than a Website Builder plan. The Azalea storefront includes hosting options for businesses that already know what platform they are using. View web hosting →
Before you launch
Common questions
Do I need to buy everything before I launch?
No. Secure the domain first if the business name matters to you. Professional email can come next, and the website can be added when you have enough information or content to publish.
Can I use the domain before I have a website?
Yes. The domain can be used with professional email and can support forwarding or branded shortcuts while the full website is still being planned.
Should I choose Website Builder or WordPress?
Website Builder is the simpler choice when you want to manage a straightforward site yourself. WordPress is a stronger fit when you expect more customization, plugins, custom development, or developer involvement.
Do I need separate hosting with Website Builder?
Website Builder is a hosted website-building solution, so a separate hosting plan is generally not needed for that same site. Separate hosting is more relevant when you already have site files or are using another platform.
Why use professional email instead of a personal inbox?
Professional email lets the business use its own domain in the address, such as [email protected], so the business name appears in customer communication as well as the website address.
Why buy through Azalea?
Azalea provides a self-service storefront for domains, email, websites, hosting, security, and related products. You create and manage your own account, review current options before checkout, and can use platform product support when needed.
Start with the foundation
Your business does not need every tool today. It does need an address of its own.
Secure the domain first, then build the rest of your launch kit around what the business actually needs.
