Set up Google Workspace for your organization

After you sign up for Google Workspace, here's how we suggest you get started. Find your edition and type of business, below.

Individual edition

For one-person businesses that don't own a domain and instead use a personal domain, such as gmail.com, hotmail.com, or yahoo.com. Go to the Google Workspace Individual Help Center.

Business editions

Applies for Business Starter, Business Standard, and Business Plus editions.

Refer to these setup guides to use your Business edition with a verified domain. Choose your business size to get started.
