How to Add a Business Email Account To Gmail - in 5 Minutes!

In this video, I show you how to add a business email account to gmail using your existing domain. This is a great way to keep your personal and professional life separate, while still having the convenience of using one email account.
And the process is almost the exact same whether you want to add your custom domain email from Bluehost, Namecheap, Hostgator or any other website hosting company.
f you are wondering
- how to use my domain email with gmail
- how to add business email to gmail
- how to add custom domain email to gmail
In just 5 minutes, I'll show you how to add a business email account to Gmail using your existing domain name. This way, you can keep your personal and business emails separate, and access them from any device or platform!
To set up your business email, first login to your website hosting account and navigate to the email or domain section. From there, follow the steps to create a new email account with your custom domain.
Then, go back to Gmail and click on the gear icon to access settings. Under Accounts and Import, click "Add a mail account" and follow the prompts to add your domain email to Gmail. And that's it - you can now send and receive emails from your professional address right within Gmail.

Thanks! Worked perfectly!

[@Swapmasters]

Thank you very much! Very helpful!

[@quantumspirits1066]

It is a good tutorial. I suggest to add that Gmail checks the mail with a periodicity of 10 to 30 min, which makes the process delayed...I recommend to configure a forwarding in the hosting mail provider so that it arrives automatically.

Any idea how to change the sync frequency? Gmail seems like the default setting is about every 20 min....

[@Onlinefreelancingbdinstitute]

thanks

[@ricardo.serafim]

Hi! Do you know if by doing this, I'm allowed to also use Google Drive with my professional email? Or create Google Meet meetings with that email? Thank you!

[@ChrisWain]

Hi, thanks for the video, I wonder if you know of a way to edit existing settings in my Business Email set up - as my host has recently changed their incoming and outgoing server names, and my Gmail will not catch up?
Any advice would be much appreciated.

[@catricelackland1644]

Hi, quick question, I tried to log into my new account using bluehost, however because it wasn’t technically set up yet, I wasn’t able to log into blue host to get the information that I needed. What should I do?

[@teeteepowe854]

Excellent tutorial!!!!

[@MaximusKabbara]

I cant seem to find the POP server on OX Cloud. Where do you see it there?

[@AndreaCinnamondCreative]

When I set this up I did not get the second window about sending from the email address. I will try again.

[@afriendabroad2083]

Awesome, you made something i've been putting off doing so easy. If I change my password in my business email, does that mean I have to change it in the gmail settings too?

[@taurusartistry]

This was the best, thanks. How Can I add a photo or logo to show as Profile Pic?

[@rentGet]

check mail from other accounts gmail frequency is very bad, Every time I have to click "Check Mail Now "
Any workarounds for this ?

[@chrissyabby208]

Thank you so much for this educative video, what if I don't have a direct access to the business websites POP server and port and all I have is the email address of the website because the website is for my company, how can I get the details on my own?
Thanks

[@skylearn496]

[@paulwong7224]

[@dannyfarmer4463]

[@tester24243]

how did you do this . I want this kind of videos for my business as well . will pay as required

[@gmanpublications]

Good info but for some reason when I am testing my email it does not come to gmail. I still have to log into webmail.

[@sonkemedia]

Can someone please respond to this

[@designingkitty]

Thank you, followed and receiving is good, it does not show in the webmail email tho, guess because of the archive option not selected, but main problem, is it is replying from my gmail, although the settings show it is set to reply from same email.

[@designingkitty]

I got it to work, but the new problem is the message goes to Webmail 1st, stays for a few minutes then goes to Gmail, but then the webmail inbox is empty,, I would still like the email to be there incase someone else is working on emails they will use the Webmail.

[@relaxwithnature6593]

Hi can i do the same process with the squarespace?

[@ingridseuren]

gosh its complicated for the ones who arent good at this :(
i have an old gmail id like to be taken over with a new email name can you remove old and replace with new name
can i create a busainess name on gmail as it wont let me ..or do i need to do a business gmail

[@kylevandyk7325]

Hello @Daragh Walsh. Thank you for the great tutorial. Do you know if its possible to change the profile picture for your business/custom email within gmail. It looks very unprofessional with just a letter symbol as a profile picture. Cheers!

[@daraghmwalsh]

yes support.google.com/mail/answer/35529?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop

[@TJTorres1143]

I wish he was more clear as to what email he is adding. I see both emails were the same. 2nd when he logs into 2nd email he types in a page I’m not familiar. So do we use that page or log into gmail or what. Good video simple but so simple for not so tech savvy people like myself a bit confusing.

[@user-jz4th3bk3h]

how do I do this if my work email is through gmail? As in I received my work email and password , but don't know how to access it.

[@KrishnaTufferyNZ]

would this stop emails from being received via other email applications?

[@LisaOrme]

Oh my gosh! Thank you! . . . Now. . . How to add a business account as a separate account in gmail, instead if it meshing together with my personal gmail account?

[@JoeTheViewer]

I set my separate biz email up by subscribing to Google Workspace and it works like a personal email when I log in. I have to set up another one but I was going to try this free method first.
Has this method been working good for you?

[@itsJVLES]

This wouldn't be the same as "Auto-Forwarding" correct? As "auto-forwarding" wouldn't allow to respond as the receiving email?

[@oconeestreet]

Hi Daragh! Thanks for the video. The caveat is that Gmail does not receive my work emails instantly. Sometimes it may take even an hour to check mail. I need to go to Settings > Accounts and import > Check mail now. This is causing delays in my response time. Do you know any other way to solve this problem? Thanks!

[@JamesRiddett]

Unfortunately there's no way to get Google to check for emails more often. My solution is to have work emails forward to my Gmail address instead. This way they arrive almost instantly and I can still reply using the work address.

[@TJTorres1143]

He says log into the email you want to add. What email did I just add to begin with is it one in the same?

[@maha_studios]

I got a error message that says " TLS Negotiation failed, the certificate doesn't match the host." what does that mean?

[@sunny753]

I get the same too..

[@zichpil]

Thank you for a great tutorial. I'm not sure if you can answe this, if I can include my business email to my personal Gmail account, why would I pay a Gmail Business account?

[@daraghmwalsh]

if you had a team, it might make sense to have google workspace account with email because you also get google drive, docs and other tools.

[@kuwi-org]

Thank you for your very useful tutorial and handy tips at the end :)

[@markphethean3831]

Hello. Does this mean I can only send mail? Not receive? I am not receiving mail on my business account, any idea why? Thanks.

[@milon-]

Same thing was happening to me I decided to use cloudflare email routiating which is the best solution I could find to this issue

[@swayhollyhood]

Can this be done with Porkbun ? I have porkbun

[@user-in1kp8nv3i]

When I enter my email info in the yellow box and then add my password, etc, checking the boxes you suggest, and click next, I get the message: Server denied POP3 access for the given username and password. Server returned error: "[AUTH] Authentication failed."
I have tried multiple times. I am using the right password and email address. It is the email from my domain which I created in my c-panel.
Any thoughts on how to fix this? Thanks.

[@rosycardenaspastrana6187]

I'm having the same problem. Did you find a way to fix that by any chance?

[@emreertugrul4032]

I'm getting the same exact thing. Were you able to find a solution to this?

[@Ambidextrousinc]

Any idea of how to find those POP settings etc. for a Godaddy email now that they are forcing me to use Microsoft365. I can't seem to find those options, when you go to admin settings it goes back to the godaddy platform, and doesn't give any of that info.

[@rosycardenaspastrana6187]

Same! We're you able to find the answer to this issue?

[@DilanJay]

I am trying to add another google account but it won't let me. what are the settings for google?
