Hello, friends! In today's article I will tell you how and, as a consequence, to create a Gmail mailbox. Yes, for some this will seem elementary, but at the same time there are many people for whom just the phrases “create an account” and “create a mailbox” will raise a lot of questions. And I say this without exaggeration, believe me, I myself meet such people all the time. Moreover, in my article I promised that I would not bypass Google, so I am keeping my promise.

So, why do you need a Google account and a Gmail mailbox?

I already wrote in detail about why email is needed in the article about mail on Yandex (link at the beginning of this article), so I won’t repeat myself. I will only outline the main points, why you need to register at all and.

Firstly, by registering a Google account, you will automatically have an account in other services of this search engine - video hosting Youtube, social network Google+, blogging platform Blogger, Google drive, etc.

Secondly, if you register on foreign sites (for example, for shopping in online stores), then it is advisable for you to have a mailbox ending in.com (and from Google is just right for this) so that there are no problems with receiving and sending letters. Of course, you can give up on this, but you must admit that it will not be very pleasant if some of your important letters do not reach the recipient or, conversely, you do not receive an answer.

Thirdly, if you have a smartphone with the Android operating system, you simply need to have a Google account, because this is the only way you can download and install applications on your smartphone from the Google Play store. Why? Yes, it’s just that Android OS belongs to Google.

Fourthly, if you have your own website or blog, or you are, then soon, I think, you will need services such as Google Analytics, Google Adsense and others.

Fifthly, because using the Gmail mailbox is very convenient, although there may also be ardent supporters of mail from Yandex or Mail.ru.

In general, from words to action, below is the process of creating a Gmail mailbox on Google.

Login to gmail.com email

Login to email is available only to registered users. If you have not yet acquired your own email, then do so using the instructions contained above in this article.

For registered users, logging into gmail.com is quite simple:

Now you can log into gmail.com at any time of the day, check and send emails. If you check the box next to the “Remain logged in” item, your login and password will be recognized automatically, you will not need to indicate them every time you log in to your email.

Hello, dear readers of the blog site! Creating a Google account makes it possible to use all the numerous features of this search giant in full. This is very convenient for ordinary users, many of whom use, for example, . I'm not even talking about webmasters or Internet entrepreneurs, for whom having a Google account is vital.

The Google account system is built in such a way that once you register, you get access to all services at once, while simultaneously purchasing a mailbox on GMail, which I use myself and which I consider the most optimal and reliable in every sense. Moreover, Google does not regulate the number of accounts you can create.

That is, if you have one account, you can add several more to it at any time, registering a new email each time. By the way, exactly the same mechanism applies when registering in Yandex. Below we will analyze all the necessary details of obtaining a Google profile in detail, so that if possible there are no dark spots left.

How to create a Google account for your needs

So, we begin the operation to get an account on Google. Registration is carried out on a special page, where you need to fill out the form provided there, in the first part of which you need to enter your first name, last name and login as part of your email:

Naturally, your mailbox will be located on the Gmail server; this service is part of Google applications. However, of course, there must always be an alternative, since users will not understand the lack of choice. In this case, if you do not want to create your own mail on GMail, then you need to click on the link “Use current email address.” mail." Then the form will take a slightly different form and you can enter your email, which will further serve as your login when logging in:

Please keep in mind that in this case, when registering, you will have to confirm the address of such an email. An email will be sent to the specified mailbox containing a link that you must follow to confirm. But, I repeat, such additional steps need to be made only if you do not want to register your mail with GMail.

However, in my opinion, the Google account you create requires the presence of a Gmail email account, if only because it is much more convenient when using various Google applications and services. In addition, the interface and settings here are constantly being modernized and, most importantly, the Google email service is very reliable in terms of security, which I will talk about in more detail.

So, if, after switching to entering your current email, you suddenly change your mind and decide to use Google mail after all, nothing prevents you from simply clicking on the “Create a new GMail address” link. We go further and in the next block of the registration form we enter the password twice, as well as our date of birth and gender:

Please note that your date of birth will not be publicly available without your consent. Of particular note is the need to make the password as complex as possible, since this directly affects the security of the future account. For my part, I would dare to recommend Kipas in this regard, which I have been successfully using for quite some time. But let’s continue filling out the Google registration form:

First you need to enter your mobile phone number and, preferably, an additional email. This information will not be superfluous in terms of increasing the level of security. For example, if you forget your password or somehow lose it, you will receive the data necessary to restore access to your Google account via SMS. A backup email address also contributes to increasing the level of account security and can also be used to receive notifications.

Next, enter the captcha in the appropriate line “Enter text” and proceed to the final part of the registration form, where you need to select the country (the one in which you live will be automatically indicated), and also tick your agreement with the terms of use of Google services and the privacy policy:

However, you can easily ignore this suggestion at this stage and upload the photo later. This can be done at any time using the appropriate options on your profile. Therefore, you can immediately click on the “Next” button. The result of this action will be the realization that you have managed to create a Google account:

After clicking “Forward” you will find yourself on a web page from where you can access all applications, services, settings and other necessary services:

Perhaps for some it will be easier to absorb the information from the video. Therefore, I provide a video on the topic of creating an account in Google:

Well, given the level of modern technology, it’s not superfluous, I think there will be a video about creating a Google account for mobile devices based on Android:

Login to Google account and basic settings

So, in the example above, we have determined how to register a Google account. You can log into your UZ right away by clicking on the silhouette in the upper right corner and then clicking on the corresponding link (in the future you can log in from the authorization page):

As you know, Google allows you to create as many profiles as you want, corresponding to different GMail mailboxes. If you receive several accounts, then it is possible to make multiple logins by logging into them simultaneously and switching between different accounts, which is very convenient when working:

After logging into your account, you can go to settings, thereby defining your preferences. By the way, I really like the interface, both in terms of ease of perception and in terms of the breadth of possibilities that are provided. Therefore, I, perhaps, will not describe in detail all the possible options, everything is intuitive here, I will tell you in general terms and will only dwell in more detail on those points that seem to me the most important.

IN section "Personal data" First of all, you can add a photo if you did not do this during the registration process:

All possible editing on the left side of this section is connected in one way or another with the settings of the profile options automatically created for you in, which is gaining wild popularity, which is not surprising, considering under whose powerful wing it is located. But we will talk about this in more detail in a separate article, since there are many nuances there.

On the right side Basic data, which were specified during the registration process (e-mail address and telephone number). To change this information, you just need to click the “Change” button and edit what you need on the newly opened page.

In the "Language" tab select the main interface language, as well as languages ​​that should be excluded from translation when working with text. Here you can also define the keyboard input method. You press the appropriate buttons and you immediately get the result, nothing complicated.

How to ensure maximum Google account security

I think everyone will agree with me if I say that the most important aspect of any closed systems is their reliable protection from outside attacks. Therefore, now I’ll tell you in more detail about the measures that can be taken to improve the security of your account and preserve confidential data.

First of all, go to the “Security” section of your account settings. In the first block, one of the options allows you to change your account login password at any time. To do this, just click the “Change Password” button:

A major step towards enhancing security is to enable two-step authentication, which is disabled by default. Click “Settings” and go to the web page for starting to activate this option, where its advantages are presented in pictures:

As you probably understand, in short, the essence of this method is that when logging into your Google account, in addition to the password itself, you will also have to enter a code that will be sent to your mobile phone. So, click on the “Start setting up” button and, as a first step, indicate your cell phone number:

You can also choose the method of receiving the code (voice or SMS). Then ask to send a verification code. Once received, enter it in the appropriate line:

Next, make a “Confirm” request. In the third step, you will be asked to consider this computer reliable. This is necessary so that the next time you log into your account from this computer, Google no longer sends a confirmation code each time:

The last step is devoted to the final activation of protection in the form of two-step authentication:

After this action, a page will open where further suggestions for optimizing the security system will be given. I advise you to study them carefully, since these settings not only allow you to increase the level of protection, but also make it possible to always have a backup option if unforeseen difficulties arise.

Let's see what else can be done to obtain optimal security and prevent unwanted situations from occurring:

• Create codes in the application - when you try to log into your Google account from another computer, phone or tablet, you will be asked for a verification code, which can be obtained using the Google Authenticator program. If any difficulties arise, there is still an alternative to order the code via SMS or voice message. This application can be downloaded from the official Google Play page;
• Add a phone number - if the main phone is unavailable for some reason (breakdown, theft, etc.), then you can use a backup option in the form of another mobile phone, to which a code will be sent. The more additional numbers you add, the more you will insure yourself against force majeure. For each phone number, a confirmation operation similar to that described above will be performed as part of two-step authentication;
• Print or download backup codes - This option is intended for those who are away for a long time and cannot use the Google Authenticator app or phone at some point. To begin with, 10 codes are given; the used codes cannot be used further; in the future, it is possible to generate additional code numbers. All this is on the page that you will be taken to if you follow the “Show backup codes” link.

In the same “Security” section there is a settings block "Account access". If you click on the “Entire list” link, you will be taken to a page where a list of all web resources and applications that in one way or another have access to the account will be given:

If you have bad suspicions about them, then you can easily and simply block their ability to use your UZ data by selecting an object on the left side and clicking on the “Deny access” button on the right.

Further. If in the section "Recent Activity" follow the “Entire list” link, you will receive all the necessary information about all actions related to the security of your account (attempting to log in or changing your password). If some action seems suspicious, for example, logging in from a browser that you have never used or a time when you could not perform such an operation in any way, you can draw the appropriate conclusions and take the necessary steps to correct the situation. Let's say, in this case, it is advisable to immediately change the password.

In another subsection "Recovery and Alerts" You can configure to receive messages about suspicious activity. Click on the “Change” link opposite the inscription “Send reminders to phone”:

We check the boxes next to the alert types, as a result of which you will receive SMS from Google on your mobile phone if suspicious actions are detected on the part of third parties in relation to your UZ.

How to manage data, delete and restore your Google account

Tab "Data management" allows you to make a wide variety of settings that you need. For example, the “Storage Space” subsection provides comprehensive information about the volume of files stored (on Google Disc, on GMail and on Google+ Photos).

The free plan allows you to use up to 15 GB of disk space. Agree, this is a lot for the average user. Well, if you want to add free space for a specific purpose, you will have to switch to a paid option by clicking on the “Change tariff” link.

In the same tab there is such an interesting option as “Google just in case”. In fact, this is a will in the most literal sense of the concept. After all, anything can happen in our lives, so you can make a list of people to whom all your “property” in the form of photos, files and other data will be transferred if the account is inactive for a certain period of time, which should be set in the settings.

So, first, we set up a period of inactivity, then add trustees who will receive all account information in your will. Click on the appropriate link and follow all the steps according to the instructions, which are very easy to understand.

I note that it is possible to set up an autoresponder for this GMail mail, which will send a specified message to all recipients who write to you after the period of inactivity has expired. If, after a specified period, the account should be liquidated, left-click the empty cell opposite the “Delete account” option, and then click “Enable”.

In the subsection of the same name in the “Data Management” tab there is a link “Delete account and data”. After clicking on it, carefully read the warning, since deleting an account is a responsible decision.

So, we looked at how to delete a Google account, now it’s time to understand what steps need to be taken to restore it. I mentioned this possibility above in the text during the description of registration. This may be necessary if suddenly an unpleasant situation arises associated with the loss of a password or, even worse, with the seizure of an account and loss of access to it.

Google cares about the safety and security of its users’ data, so you can restore your account only when it is one hundred percent sure that you are the owner. That’s why during registration we indicate the recovery parameters, which in this case are an additional e-mail and phone number.

You can restore access to your Google account. If you can’t figure something out, you will get answers to your questions and options for action in a given situation at this And this help pages.

All Google apps and services

Google has a whole bunch of a wide variety of services and services, as they say, for all occasions. Almost every user will find in this list the necessary application to solve a particular problem. Therefore, when talking about creating an account, I cannot ignore this aspect. I suspect that at the moment, the most complete list of services is located on one of the Wikipedia pages.

Now let's go to our account and click on the icon, which will call up the default set of icons, each of which represents a specific Google service or application:

By clicking on the selected icon, you will be taken to the page of the service indicated by this picture. If you click on the “More” link, you will get a couple of additional icons:

A new link “Other offers from Google” will also appear here, by clicking on which you can go to a new web page, where there is an expanded list, which, however, is also far from complete (you will get a more voluminous one if you visit the Wikipedia page using the link provided above):

To add a particular application to the initial registry for convenience, which appears when you click on the icon in your account, you need to go to the page of this service after logging into your account:

Now in your UZ you should click on the inscription “Add a shortcut”, as a result of which the icon of this Google service will be present in the collection along with other pictures.

And in the top horizontal menu, click on the button " Mail". If you have opened another page, then in the upper right corner there is a button "", click.

2. And now a page has opened for you where we will begin registration. You are ready? Then let's move on! Pay attention to the picture and be careful when filling out the data. Enter your first and last name in Russian or your native language. Next, in the “Enter user name” field, write in Latin letters and just left click in the empty space just outside the field to check if there is a user under that name? It will be visible below the field. If it's busy, come up with a different name. Now enter a complex password and a hint (podcast) will appear to you on how complex the password you entered, in the lower field, repeat the password. Next comes the “Date of Birth” field, which I personally entered. Be reasonable, of course, indicate the "Gender" field. Below, if you do not want to indicate your mobile number, then leave the field blank. During the next steps, Google will ask for a number for full confirmation. Actually, this field is to protect your account from hacking. But in this field “Your email address” enter an email from another service.

3. Are you a robot? Then confirm to Google that you are not a robot, write two words from the picture in the field, with a space between the words. Indicate the country in which you live. Be sure to check the checkboxes that are highlighted in red squares. Below, click on the “Next” button.

4. Confirm your account! Confirmation options: put the radio dot in the “Text message” line, then the country and now you need to enter your mobile phone number, then click on the “Send verification code” button. Did you receive a code via SMS? And in the next step, enter this code in the field, then click on the “Check” button.

5. After a long first step, the second step is where you need to put a photo or immediately click on “Next”. Hooray!!! Congratulations! The service thanks you for choosing Google.

6. What's next? And then it’s up to you: do you want to inform your friends about the new opening of your email box? Take action, and if not, then click “No”.

7. And here is the dazzling Gmail interface. Google has sent you three emails that you need to read. And after that, be sure to save it, do not delete it.

8. While you and I were fiddling with the process registration, let's go to another mailbox, to which Google sent two letters. Open the letter where you need to confirm your email address. This is for the address link. The letter will contain an important link that you must safely click on. If the hyperlink does not work, then copy it and in a new tab (Blank page) paste it into the address bar, which is located at the top of the browser (white, long field), then press “Enter” on the keyboard.

9. We continue the binding process. In this account login form, enter the password that you entered at the very beginning of registration, then click on the “Confirm” button. Linked address confirmed!

Attention! In paragraph (8.), where I talked about two letters. I strongly recommend saving it in a folder. After all, the second letter contains important information, there is a secret code for confirmation, for example: your email was hacked or something else. If for some reason you were unable to log into your Gmail account, you will see a page where you need to write a letter in the field with a detailed explanation of why you were unable to log in, and there will be a button either “Send” or “Report to Google”. After sending, you will have to wait 2-3 days and a letter with a link will be sent to another email box, where they will indicate that you need to reset the old password and at this moment immediately replace it with a new, more complicated one.
