so I'm setting up a small business and there are a handful of things I need a help with. and who else is better to ask than the pos. So this isn't a new business, it's currently owned things I need to do and or deal with there is a website. I am making a new website but idk about transferring urls or domains or whatever. i dont even know the terminologies or what I need to know in order to do so email on said url... rent a seervice like fastmail.com or my ISP and use the url to do sometrhingt with ut??? i need the 101 a decent colour laser printer. part of this business is priting out certificates. doing enought that my own gear would probably be cheaper in the long run. i have a feeling that $100 job is gonna be poo poo. i know next to nothing about decent grade poo poo I have the mac lappy but a particular piece of simulation software requires windows so how do I bootcamp? thats the thing right poo poo how worthless am I also I can't pay anyone anything for this priceless advice. maybe I coul;d send you a tin of reduced cream if you transform my understanding

Forsooth, Avatar! I wouldst gladly impart my own wisdom upon thee, for as thoust know, wisdom tis one of the principles from which the virtues spring. However, I am afraid that thine own virtues are lacking. Perhaps thou shouldst return to Britannia later to resume thy quest.

also bootcamp is really easy. do it with windows 10 and it will be fine. you can do everything in the cloud these days for the online stuff. if you like call up squarespace or whatever and say "i have x and i want to do y" they'll walk you through it, they want your busines

my advice is to buy your domain through domains.google.com reasons: has wix and squarespare integration cheap free Whois privacy easy Google email integration etc

pram posted:my advice is to buy your domain through domains.google.com I was just reading the email from the old owner regarding this stuff. I was just thinking about the decision to do this, it seems like they have a lot of their stuff already on/with google. The other option was to do it through the business ISP and host the email and the domain through them. My suspicion is that the service or help I could get would be significantly better than with google if I ever had problems opinion? thanks pram for pitching in, I appreciate it

can you basically have like gmail, but with the sales@business.co.nz address I am thinking of using? that would be really handy I guess and you can still use email clients like the one on osx to connect to it right? presumably I would want to set up an entirely new google account for all of this too? a bussiness one. if there like a business google account thing I need to look into or is it all the same and you just buy/add plans etc?

Google domains will automatically set up the mx records and stuff and yes the email would be echi@whatever.com and it will function like a gmail account

I am torn a bit though, the ISP service appears to do all of this and is included in the monthly cost. plus I like the idea of local customer service. the google service on the on the other hand is probably the overall better service provided it works solidely... I think I will stick with the google considering it's already on there... cheers dudes
