Gmail (also called Google Mail) is a free email service provided by Google.
In many ways Gmail is like any other email service: you can send and receive emails, block spam,
create an address book, and do other basic email tasks. But it also has some more unique features that help
to make it one of the most popular email services on the web.
In this lesson, we'll talk about some of the features and advantages of Gmail,
and also give an overview of the Gmail window.

[h=3]Google AccountsCreating a Google Account will be needed to access Gmail because this email service is one
of the many services offered by Google to registered users.
Signing up for a Google Account is free and easy, and naming your new Gmail address will be a part of
the sign up process. This means whenever you're signed in to Gmail,
you are automatically signed in to your Google Account.
You'll be able to easily access other Google services like
Google Docs, Calendar, YouTube, and more. Creating a Google Account
also means that you'll be a part of Google+, Google's social networking service.
Of course, you don't have to use any of these features - you may prefer just to
focus on email for now. However, if you'd like more information,
you can check out our Google Accounts tutorial,
where we talk about some of thedifferent services that Google offers,
as well as how to change your privacy settings.

Setting up a Gmail Account​

​

Setting Up a Gmail Account


To create a Gmail (Google Mail) address, you'll first need to create a Google Account. Gmail will redirect you to the Google Account sign up page. You'll need to provide some basic information like your name, birthday,gender, and location. You will also need to choose a name for your new Gmail address. Once you create an account, you'll be able to start adding contacts and adjusting your mail settings.

To Create an Account:

1. Go to www.gmail.com.
2. Click Create an Account.

Creating an account

Gmail will redirect you to the Create a new Google Account window.

​

Creating a new Google Account form

You will now need to fill out a form with your information. Type your first name and last name.
Type the Google username you want to use. This will become your Gmail email address.
Google checks the availability of the username to make sure that name hasn't already been taken.

​

Typing your Google username

Type your desired password. Just like with any online service, it's important to choose a strong password - in other words, one that is difficult for someone to guess. When you type your desired password, Gmail will tell you whether it is strong enough, and if it's not strong enough you can modify it.

1. Creating a strong passwordEnter your birthday month, day, and year. Select your gender.

​

Typing Birthday and selecting Gender

1. Optional: If you would like for Google to text you your password if you ever forget it or need to reset it, enter your Mobile phone number. This is not required to sign up for a Google Account.
2. Optional: If you would like for Google to help keep your account secure by emailing you if there is unusual activity happening with your account, enter an alternate email address in the Other email address box.

1. Fields for contact informationThen, you will need to type the verification text that you see below the Default homepage. You will also need to select your location.

Typing the verification text and selecting Location

1. Review the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy and click on the box to accept.
2. Review the About personalization and click the box if you would like to participate in Google +1 content and ads. We will leave the box empty.
3. Click Next step to continue.

Agreeing to Terms of Service

The Create your profile page will appear. Click Add Profile Photo if you wish to add a photo to yourGoogle+ profile. If you do not want a profile photo at this time, click Next step. You can add a profile photo later, if you change your mind.

Continuing to the Next step

The Google welcome page will appear. This page will help explain the basics of your Google account and remind you of your Gmail address and Google username.
