Creating a Gmail Profile

Your Gmail profile represents your identity and it serves as a core for the sake of your identity on the social connectivity of Gmail. Using your Gmail profile, you can post your details about what you are and this provides you a better chance of knowing you. If you create a profile on Gmail, you are needed to make a display name as well as a contact picture of your account. While a display name is obligatory for your account, providing the contact picture along with the name is optional. Your name is kept public and it can be seen by anyone all around the world who is holding a Gmail account. Gmail also suggests the username or the initial letters of the display name. You can also change the display name anytime you want. If you are uploading a contact picture with the name, your display picture will also remain public like the contact name. You are given the ability to post personal details as well on your profile. Except your display name, all the information that you are given to post are optional and it’s totally your call. You can also activate your link between your Gmail activities all through the network of Gmail.

As far as the updates on Gmail are concerned, you are given the opportunity to manage your updates on the profile by going to the Gmail settings. Gmail updates will constantly appear on other Gmail websites and you can get your updates in Gmail messenger for Windows. If you want your profile to stay invisible in privacy settings, people will only see your display name and a message that tells you that you have chosen other information to hide. Information that you share either remains private or public. Anyone can access the details that you have kept public. No one is allowed to look through your private info unless you allow them to.
