Question

I registered a domain with Dreamhost. I want to setup Google Apps with the domain I registered.

I tried googling instructions and looking at the Dreamhost wiki and Google support, but the instructions are confusing. Can some one create an easy step-by-step guide for me?

Answer 1

From the Dreamhost panel, choose "Manage Domains" and then click the domain that you want to use Google Apps with. Scroll down and look for the section that says "You'll need to set your domain up with Google to use these services, if you haven't already." Follow that link and the associated instructions. Also, check the boxes next to "Use Gmail for your email at this domain, totally free!" and "Set up calendar.yourdomain.com and docs.yourdomain.com free!" depending on which you want.

I hope this helps you!

Answer 2

When you create a site in the DH panel you have the option to fully host on DH and use Google Apps services

Manage Domains > Fully Host a Domain > Google Hosted Services

Or you can choose Google Hosted and host completely on Google.
