Outlook Sign Up

For email users that have gone tired of using the same old email services of other providers, here is a chance to try out something new. Microsoft has introduced Outlook.com as the new email service that is touted to be the best email service of the future as it is cloud based enabling clients to stay connected on the move. Successor to Hotmail.com, the founder company of webmail services, Outlook is introduced with new and improved features that enhance the email access experience of the users. Cloud services have been incorporated into the service along with the ability to video call through Skype.

As more and more people are choosing smartphones and tablets that enable them to access emails even when away from computers and laptops, it becomes imminent to have email service providers that are mobile enabled. Outlook.com provides this ability as it is cloud based enabling users to access to emails and internet all the time. The interface of the service is clutter free and the inbox is intuitively designed for a fresh look with no ads on display.

For an Outlook Sign up, you need to follow the given steps:

Step 1

You will have to log in to Outlook.com, the official website of the service. The page is neat and clearly displays the ‘Sign Up now’ button.

Step 2

Creating a new account with Outlook means that you will have to give some of the important personal details. Once you click on ‘Sign up no’, you are directed to a web form that must be duly filled. Certain information such as the full name of the user, the date of birth and the country has to be given. Other important details like the preferred username and password also must be given in the form. Before finalizing the given username, the service checks for the availability of the username as it might have been taken up by another user.

Step 3

You need to fill in a Captcha code at the end of the form to validate your form and authenticate your registration. The service checks whether the required mandatory fields are filled in or not. The Captcha code is an essential piece of security as it keeps the spammers and robots away.

Step 4

Once all entries are found to be filled in correctly, Outlook provides the new account which might look like username@outlook.com Users that are already using Hotmail, SkyDrive, Xbox Live and Windows phone can upgrade their email accounts to Outlook.com by simply clicking on the “Upgrade” option given in their respective mail service.
