| How to make an e-mail account |
| Truthfully it isn't that hard. |
| Of all of the free web based email accounts and free websites, I like Yahoo!'s services the best. [I find the Yahoo! email accounts to be the most user friendly, and the Yahoo!Geocities free website to offer a easy to learn and very useful web making tools]. The following instructions will show how one can make a free Yahoo! email account. Other free email accounts can be established with the same relative ease and instructions. [quick note: yahoo usually offers more storage than other email accounts, which is plus.] |
| Number One: This is truly free FREE! To learn how this is possible, please read about the banner system. |
| Number Two: Goto Yahoo! 's website. (www.yahoo.com) and click on "check email" icon at the top of the page. [ another route: type "mail.yahoo.com" and it will bring you to the same place]. |
| Number Three: Above the "sign in" area, there are some words that read "SIGN ME UP!" Click on "Sign Me Up!" |
| Number Four: Fill out the information accordingly. Note: you may have to try another screen name (SN) as someone may have already chosen the name you have picked. The screen name (sn) is the name that will be your email address <stuff before the @yahoo.com>). Fill out the rest of the stuff. Most of it isn't necessary, and you DO NOT actually have to sign up for any free newsletters or other services. |
| Number Five: Once you filled out all the info, click "ok" or whatever the directions say. You may be told to pick another SN here. Once you have picked a name that no one else has picked and your confirm it, you are finished. |
| Number Six: Wasn't that easy? Enjoy your email account. There is a "FAQ" - frequently asked questions, section which can help you out if you have any problems. |
