Setting up a Google business email gives your company professional addresses on your own domain, backed by Gmail's familiar interface and reliability. Here is the step-by-step setup with Google Workspace.
Step-by-step setup
- Sign up for Google Workspace and enter your domain (or buy one during signup).
- Verify domain ownership with the TXT record Google provides.
- Add the MX records so mail routes to Google.
- Create mailboxes for your team (you@, sales@, support@).
- Publish SPF and DKIM so outgoing mail is authenticated.
Don't skip authentication: SPF and DKIM are what keep your business mail out of recipients' spam folders - set them up as part of the initial configuration.
