 why would you want a professional email

 Number #1

Free emails look cheap a professional

email address shows that you're serious about yourself and your business

 Number #2

Free email accounts are more at risk for

hacking 

Number #3

professional emails help build your overall brand

Step #1

 Step number one do you have a website in order to get a professional email like your name at yourwebsite.com you need to own your own domain name like yourwebsite.com

so if you don't go and create website with

hostgator so once you have a domain name and hosting we can move on to next step

Step #2

Step number two which is to add your

custom email account let's go ahead and go over to hostgator.com and sign in

from here what we're going to do is select the hosting package that we want to create this professional email

you can use 10minutewebsite.com to make a professional email here you can create email account

Step #3

Step number three which is to set up your mail client

setting up a mail client means that we will link

 up this new professional email address to

your gmail account so that way you can send and receive emails through your gmail account but under your new custom professional name so to do this we have to go over to gmail and sign in

put in  information right  so now we're going to go ahead and hook up the new email that we created to our gmail

whenever you've done that just click on add account and then it's going to ask us if we want to be able to send mail as this new 

professional email which we do and it automatically says yes so you can just leave that checked and click on to create an alias

and an alias means that you can add

 your actual name to this new professional email address so that whenever it shows up in somebody's inbox it will not only show your professional email address but also show a personal touch of your first and last name 

next to it and it doesn't have to just be your first and last name 

Step #4

Step number four which is to verify your new email so in order to verify our new email what 

we're going to do is just go back over to gmail

and then just scroll down to check mail

from other accounts which we went to

earlier and then just click on check mail now

and as you can see  it says one mail fetched and the reason for this is because whenever you set up a new email with gmail gmail knows that this account is not getting a lot of emails right away because it's brand new

so it's not going to fetch mail as often 

but as you start to get more emails through this account gmail will fetch them almost instantly but for now you can go in and manually check it by hitting the check mail

Number #5

Step number five is is to send yourself a test email so we want to make sure this new email is working
