This saves you having to have a Gmail account that you need to check in addition to your current email. This is great for me, I’ve already got three addresses and the thought of an extra email is a bit much.
Rather than going through the “Create and account” option you’ll see when you sign up for a Google service like Goggle+, go here instead:
https://accounts.google.com/newaccount
You’ll note the option “I prefer to use my current email address”–use that!
Like most things, it’s easy when you know how. Or in this case, where.

You should be able to input your full email address and password in the usual gmail.com login actually.
Feel free to get in touch with me properly though via my contact page – I need more information to really help. Cheers!
I use Outlook and have an email account with Centurylink that most friends and clients use and am sure have saved. I have had numerous problems with Outlook and am sick and tired of the problems and wasted hours trying to get problems resolved with my ISP and MS.
Can I use Gmail in such a way that when I send emails from my Gmail acct my Centurylink email address appears in my emails rather than my Gmail email address?
I’m not familiar with Centurylink I’m afraid, but you can set up Google Mail to access other email addresses via POP or IMAP, and I’d be very surprised if any email system didn’t allow for that!
I want google account for my emails and I do not have website
Well this doesn’t require that you have a website, but you at least need a domain. I wonder if perhaps you mean you just want to use gmail? If that’s the case, just head to gmail.com.
You have no idea how much I have tried to create a business youtube account, I can’t do it! I don’t know what I am doing wrong, but mine doesn’t looked the way other business accounts do (Videos, playlist, more info tabs etc) it looks like a regular channel. I already had a gmail account so I linked my G+ business account to youtube.
Can you help me, please?
This help file describes it so much better than I could, look at the last section:

I ACTUALLY WANT GOOGLE ACCOUNT FOR MY EMAILS AND I DO NOT HAVE WEBSITE.
If I accept a shared calendar request and access it using this method, can I get that calendar to show up on my iphone calendar app?
When I go through the settings the way that I would expect to be successful, it brings me back to the add account screen before we finish setup of the new account.
(I’m setting this up on someone else’s phone… I have an actual gmail address. I’m hoping that they don’t need to set up a gmail address to make this work)
I want to make an existing account because I can’t remember my password
