I have my own website (not posting it here but it's a .com) and I want to get mail on it so I can stop using my gmail account. I have pretty much no idea how to accomplish this. I tried to look up a guide but I couldn't find anything.

you mean a @yourwebsite.com email address?
I believe that depends on your hosting provider, you have to look at whether or not they even offer it, and then manage it through whatever control panel they provide.

Ask your hosting provider's support

I don't know much but I do know it'd help having a dedicated server box for your website / email

change the link from a www.google.be to a www.google.com so that way it's in English and pulls English results too

It's basically like hosting a webpage on your website except with more steps
if your running your own website off of something like linode or digitalocean follow the steps to setup a mail server on linux...etc
