Quick Steps to Setup a Google Account with a non-Gmail Email: If you don’t have an email on your firm’s domain give us a call so we can help.

I highly, highly, highly (did I say highly?) recommend that you create/dedicate an email on your company’s domain name rather than using a free Hotmail, yahoo or inbox account. There’s a very similar process to setting up a Microsoft account with a non-Microsoft email that I’ll cover in a different blog someday. It’s as simple as setting up an already existing email account with Google. I’m about to share with you a step by step guide on how you can clean up your logins and use a single email account with these tools. Nobody has time to keep track of all of this (unless we are your VP of Marketing). Things like Google Analytics, Search Console, Google My Business, Google +, and Bing Webmaster tools all require emails registered with either Google or Microsoft to gain access. Logging in to tools is a major reason why many of us have multiple email accounts. Be honest: how many email accounts do you have? Now actually be honest: How many email accounts do you use? If your answer is “one” to both questions, congratulations! You win at the internet! If it took you a while to count, please read on.
