How To Create a Gmail Email Account
Did you ever want to open a new email account but did not know how to open a new email account? Then this article is for you.Hello, I am Sandeep and in this article, I am going to tell you, 'How to open an email account'.
These days there are several free email services available. such as Gmail, Yahoo Mail, and Hotmail. In this article, I will show you how to open a Gmail account step by step.
By the end of this article, you will be able to open your own email address.
So... come on! Let's open an e-mail account...
--First, open the Browser
--After opening the browser, type "GMAIL.COM" in the address bar above,
The Gmail home page will open.
If we had an email address, we could have entered the username and password and could have logged in but we are coming here for the first time so we will have to click on the blue button 'Create An Account'
As soon as you click on the button, a new page opens up and there is a form here,
As soon as we fill the form, our new email account will be opened, It's that easy.
For this Tutorial, I am going to give you an example so that you could easily open your Gmail email account. My father does not have an email account until today. So let's open an email account for him. This is just an example. When you fill this form, please enter details about yourself.
Step 1.
Choose your first name and last name, in my case I have chosen my father's name that is 'Sanjay Choudhary', in your case you should choose your name.
Step 2.
After I input the first name and last name, I was being asked to choose a username
But the username should be such that it is easy to remember and unique. Someone else should not have taken that username already.
Let's input 'choudharysanjay0107' and see if it is available in Gmail
wow... the username is available. in case of you if username will not be available then Gmail will tell you that this username has already been taken up and it will suggest you some alternatives, you can choose one from them.
If there are many people with the same name as you, it is often hard to get your desired username, That's why people often use a combination of letters and numbers to get a unique username like I have done in this tutorial.
so...try to add some numbers to your name to make the username unique...and then let's see if it is available.
Step 3.
After successfully entering the unique username,
Now I am being asked for a password. A password is a key and you should always keep this a secret.
Choose a password that is easy to remember and one that others cannot guess easily.
For now, let me input 'techierocky' as my password.
It's telling me that the password is strong, If you enter a simple password, anyone can guess it.
Now we have to re-type the password... 'techierocky'
You must remember that the two passwords must be an identical and exact match.
Step 4.
Now put your date of birth, in this case, let me put his Date of Birth - January 2nd, 1964.
Step 5.
Now select the gender- in this case, I have chosen 'male' as the gender, in your case you should choose according to your gender.
Step 6.
We are being asked for a mobile number, but he does not have one so let's leave this blank.
Step 7.
Now we are being asked for an email address, but he doesn't have one so let us leave this blank too.
If you too do not want to input the Mobile number and email address, you can leave it empty.
Step 8.
Next is Location- his location is India so let's select India as the location(in your case you choose your own country)
Step 9.
Now click on the next step button.
After clicking on the next step button you will get a pop up in which there will be google's terms and conditions and I Agree tab.
Step 10.
And let's click here. This is Google's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy
You can read the Terms of Service by clicking here.
But I have read these beforehand so I am going to click on I Agree button and to 'Next Step'
On clicking 'Next Step' a new page opens up... and now our email address is ready.
Now I am being asked to upload a profile photo for my Father,
but I do not have a photo right now so I am going to skip this for now... and let's click on the blue button 'next step', On clicking 'Next Step' a new page opens up. Here you see 'Welcome Sanjay Choudhary' and the email address choudharysanjay0107@gmail.com has been created.
Step 11.
Let's click on the blue button 'Continue to Gmail'.
Once we press this button, we are inside the Gmail inbox where the Gmail team has sent us 3 emails and this is our welcome message.
The email account is now ready to use!
but remember, we have just logged into the email account
If you want to sign out, click on the arrow above button above and you will be signed out of the Gmail.
And now we are back where we started - on the Gmail login page.
Remember - please do not share your password with anyone. Please note it somewhere and keep it safe so that if you forget it you can refer to the paper or dairy.
In this example, we created an email address choudharysanjay0107@gmail.com. The username was choudharysanjay0107 and the password we chose was 'techierocky'.
It's not necessary for you to use the same username or password. You may choose a username and password you like.
