Why Google Mail (GMail) is Number One?

My first ever email account created was with one of those email providers which gives you flexibility in selecting a unique domain. Something like; iheartyou.com and etc. Come to think of it, I can not remember my last email provider anymore.

Nonetheless, even at that time I actually had more than 1 email account. I signed up with Hotmail because I couldn’t get a Rocketmail account and then I signed up with Yahoo! mail. Later down the road, I found out about Gmail as a friend invited me to use their service. And today, Google Mail or Gmail for short is my number one choice as an email provider. However, here’s why I consider Google Mail the number one player of email providers.

It’s because Google knows how to appreciate their customers. Plus, its super user friendliness companied with its super duper ‘logical’ spam protection makes Gmail a favourite to many Gmail users today.

One of the things I admire about Google is their marketing campaigns for their products. They’re simple ideas with an addictiveness indescribable to a customer. Their recent marketing campaign (I think recent) is; What’s your Gmail story?

This type of viral marketing video and influence on Gmail’s users is nothing but brilliant. Google knows how to capitalize on the market its dominating ever since its public beta release on February 7, 2007. With an initial storage capacity of 1 GB, it drastically increased the standard for free storage and challenged oldies; Yahoo! and Microsoft.

Ever since I registered my Gmail account, I’ve had nothing mean, bad, terrible, sarcastic, negative and…you get the idea, to say about the email provider or its service. They are simply the best and this is the reason they are my number one email provider.

p/s: Love their spam filter to bits.
