Detailed instructions on how to create a Gmail email account on your computer

Step 1: Access the Gmail homepage

You access the Gmail homepage at: mail.google.com. At the main interface of the website, you click on the create account button.

Step 2: Enter your name, gmail account registration name and password

After clicking on the create account box, you will be redirected to a registration form.

Here, there is information that you need to complete including:

1. Full Name: You should enter your real full name, or the brand name, company name you want to create.
2. Username: This is your email in the future. You need to pay attention to not enter special characters, do not write with accents, and do not have spaces in your username. In case you have the same name as someone else, you need to choose another name to register for a Google Gmail account.
3. Password: You must enter the password in both boxes (password, confirm). Note that the password in these two boxes must be the same. At the same time, you must remember the password so that you can log in later. You should not set a password that is too easy to guess, for example 123456, or abcdef, or 123abc.

Step 4: Read and agree to Google's terms

Every playground has its own rules, and Gmail is no exception. Here, all the terms of using Gmail will be announced to you by Google. Usually, I will skip the reading part and click on agree. If you are careful, read through before clicking on the button to agree to these terms.

After clicking the agree button, your Gmail account will be created on Google's server. When finished, you will be redirected to the main interface of your email account along with a Gmail welcome letter. At this point, you can use your Gmail account immediately.
