Link your Personal/Work Email to Gmail or Other Mail App

Are you finding it difficult to link your personal domain email account (e.g. [email protected]) to your Gmail App so you can easily receive business mails from your domain direct to your mobile phone?

Don’t feel bad about it, I was once like you but cos you visited my blog today, your case is going to be 100% solved.

You know, before now, I use to wonder if it was even possible to link my personal hosted domain email account to my Gmail App on my Android/iOS mobile phones.

I tried looking this up on Google search but because I was not so tech savvy, the information I bump into looked vague to me.

I tried then but always got stuck at some point. So I felt I needed to do something special which at the time I was not ready to stress myself while I have other things keeping me busy.

Not until I traveled without my laptop sometime and by the time I got back and checked my business mail, I received tons of mails of which 2 where to pay for a service but had limited delivery time while most of the others are sponsored/guest post requests.

Well, I responded to the 2 emails first but only one replied with a “too late” tag and the other never replied. I lost money of course and it was painful.

So I decided it was time to sort the email linking thing so I had to take a third look at Google Email App. This time around, I was not ready to give up and I succeeded.

When I did, at first I was not happy, why, because it was a very simple task and the thought of loosing that money made me unhappy but then, I was glad I won’t miss such opportunity in the future even if I travel for weeks.
