accounts
, how to create one, and how to create multiple Google accounts. We will also explain things to keep in mind when using a Google account and how to log in, so please refer to this if you are considering creating a Google account.
What is a Google account?
First, let’s start with an overview of your Google account. Google Account is a free account service provided by Google that manages user information for using Google services. With one Google account, you can use convenient services provided by Google for free, and you can also improve your daily work efficiency.
There are two types of Google accounts: one that can be created for free and one called Google Workspace, which is mainly for businesses such as corporations. Although Google Workspace offers a wider range of functions, it comes with a monthly running cost, so in this article we will explain about Google accounts that can be used by individuals.

Services available by creating a Google account
Earlier, I explained that by creating a Google account, you can use various tools from Google. Here are some examples of services provided by Google.
- G-mail
- Google Drive
- Google Docs
- Google Sheets
- Google Slides
- Google Maps
- Google Photos
- Google Calendar
- YouTube
There are also other sites such as Google Play where you can download apps. “Google Docs” and “Google Sheets” mentioned above are often used as alternatives to Word and Excel provided by Microsoft. In addition, it is also possible to convert Google documents, etc. into Word files, Excel files, PDF files, etc. and then download them.
In this way, with just one Google account, you can use the tools mentioned above to improve your business efficiency. Another good point is that you don’t have to worry about running costs because it’s free to use.

Additionally, you will need to enter your parent’s phone number and email address and also authenticate your account at the same time, so you will need to create an account together with your parent.
Address cannot be changed later
When creating a Google account, the username part will be the “before @” part used in Gmail. Please note that the part before this @ cannot be changed after creation. Therefore, when deciding on a username, be sure to consider your email address when creating a Google account.
