How to own multiple Gmail addresses with just one account
Having to create many new Gmail accounts to access online services like Facebook, Instagram or Twitter sometimes makes it difficult for you to remember the names of your accounts. So what to do to just create a Gmail account but use it for many services? Please follow the article below for details!
Tip 1 - Add punctuation to your username
Gmail does not include dots (.) As characters in the username. So if your email is quantrimangcom@gmail.com , you can add one or more dots. After that, Google will continue to determine which is also an address. Eg:
- quantrimang.com@gmail.com
- quantrimang.com@gmail.com
- quan.tri.mang.com@gmail.com
- quantrimangcom@gmail.com
These email addresses look different, but Gmail recognizes them as the same and all messages sent to those addresses will come to the same inbox.
Tip 2 - Add words to your username
In addition to adding a dot (.), Gmail also allows you to add words to your email address. The only thing you need to do is add a plus sign (+) after the regular username and add a word you want. For example:
- quantrimangcom+congnghe@gmail.com
- quantrimangcom+langcongnghe@gmail.com
- quantrimangcom+khoahoc@gmail.com
- quantrimangcom+cuocsong@gmail.com
It's that simple, isn't it! Now you can put as many nicknames as you want.
Trick 3 - Combine both tips 1 and 2
Gmail also allows you to combine both tips without any limit.
- quantrimang.com+congnghe@gmail.com
- quantrimangcom+langcongnghe@gmail.com
..
Using these tips will prevent you from having to create too many email accounts and still be able to use Gmail for various online services.
