How to Use Temporary Email Aliases in Gmail

Just add a “+” and a keyword before @gmail.com when signing up for services.
For example:

• yourname+work@gmail.com → For work-related signups
• yourname+shopping@gmail.com → For e-commerce accounts
• yourname+newsletter@gmail.com → For newsletters & subscriptions

Why is this useful?

Easily filter emails – Set up Gmail filters for different aliases.
Track spam sources – If you start getting spam, you’ll know which service leaked your email.
No need for multiple email accounts – Manage everything from one inbox!

Bonus Tip: This also works with Outlook & Yahoo!
