In the 21st century, it is essential to have an email account not only to maintain contact with family or friends but as a professional tool. It helps us to keep in touch with family and friends, but also to look for a job and register as users on pages that offer online courses or any type of web platform.
In today’s world email is the most important not only at a personal level but a professional level also. For registration or becoming a member or user of any page, email is most important. Sure, young people know how to create an email account in just minutes, but older people may find some difficulties but trust me it's really simple and easy.
Which is the best platform to use?
There are many pages that offer the possibility of creating an email. Therefore, people who are in this process can choose and adapt to the web that is easier for them. Gmail, Outlook- formerly known as Hotmail, Yahoo, and AOL are the most popular websites that offer this service. Instead of these, there are so many free Temporary email services also available for short term use. All of them have a very similar operation.
Steps to Create an Email Account
- Choose the server on which we want to create the email. The first step we have to do to create the email account is to select the server on which we want to make the account. Once you know on which platform you want to open an account, perform a simple Google search “Create Gmail account”; for example, and access their website.
- “Create Account/register now”. Depending on the server, they will resort to the use of one terminology or another. In this option, we will be asked to enter our basic personal data — name and surname, date of birth, country/region, contact telephone number, and email address that we want to use. Regarding the latter, it is advisable to use a simple and serious address in which our name and surnames — or their initials — appear so that we can be identified quickly. It is recommended not to enter the date of birth in the email address to avoid creating situations of discrimination, especially when looking for a job.
- Username. In this case, it is important to choose it well. The reason is that it will be the email address we will have when creating the account. It is the one that we can give to family, friends, clients, etc. Since there are so many millions of people, we may not find an email for a simple name, for example, our first name. We will have to introduce variants until we find one that we like.
- Password and confirmation of the same. It is necessary to choose a password and repeat it for later verification. It is important that it be safe. To do this, you must include uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. It must have at least eight characters and include more if we want to increase security.
Details that you have to provide :
- Date of birth. To create a Gmail account, you must be at least 18 years old.
- Sex. Woman, man, or other.
- Mobile phone number. We can recover the password if we have the phone number associated with the email. In addition, it gives a plus of security.
- Current email address. Here it is appropriate to put an alternative email address, which will serve as an alternative communication method to the Gmail account. In this way, if the mobile is not operational, this email can be used to retrieve the key.
- Anti-robot field (Captcha). You have to transcribe what you see in the photograph or mark the photos that are asked of us. This is done in order to avoid creating automatic Gmail accounts.
- Location.
The password is one of the most important steps when we face the creation of an email account. we recommend a password that we easily remember but, at the same time, not easy to hack. Normally, there is a lot of use of the date and month of birth, an important month and year in your life, the name of your pet, or something easy to memorize. On the other hand, it is very appropriate to alternate the use of capital letters with lower case letters — for example, we can put the first letter in upper case and the rest in lowercase.
On the other hand, as informational information, it should be added that e-mail accounts already offer the possibility of pointing out the “remember me” or similar option, in which if we activate it we can save our account and password. Thus, each time we visit our email profile, we will not have to enter either the email or the password.
Through these brief indications, anyone can create an email account with relative ease and in a very short period of time. From there, you can start working and contemplate the multiple possibilities that email offers.
An email has become a daily way of communicating both in the workplace and in the academic environment.
