Guard Your Gmail Account!

Domainers decide their brand based on their name and their gmail address can be a big part of their presentation and communication strategy. If you’ve invested time and effort establishing a brand then make sure your gmail is not taken. People tend to assume those using the gmail account are associated with the domain or website. Don’t wait until you start receiving strange emails from people who claim you owe them money.

Don’t use gmail? Doesn’t matter. Someone else does and they may be hiring work or doing business as you, the legal owner of the domain name online. Go to Google mail (gmail) and search for available name. Cement this brandable domain name marketing resource by registering the account using your own data, and security information. Even if you never use the email address, it’s certain nobody else can and pretend to be “you”.

    Wow I never thought of that but is probably something I should take care of right now. Thanks for great advice. I am new to domaining but you see to have the inside track.
