What is Google Product Forums and How to Change Display Name

Google provides a nice platform known as Google Product Forums, where you can talk about any issues, can share your ideas with the related community and can also give your valuable solutions to seekers to sort out problems. Indeed it is good practice to help others, it also help to learn something more about your field, will increase your experience, can help you to get some popularity and traffic.

Google Product Forums



Google Product Forums include 59 sub forums almost for each of their services/products; Adsense, Blogger, Browser (chrome), advertisers, Gmail, Google +, affiliates, apps, webmaster central, YouTube, maps, etc. Means its does not matter whats your query, if its related to Google then you are free to discuss it on GPF.

One more thing which I really liked about it is that you can organize your discussions, you can easily get updates of current discussion via email notifications, mark them as favourites and in folders, etc.

How To Change Display Name in Google Products Forums:

It is good to have a good username when you are participating in forums. Your name reflects your personality, image, level of seriousness, and it makes bit easy to get your ambition. No matter are you helper or seeker for help, above mentioned points are implement on both situations.

If you are going to signup then there would be no problem for you. But in case if you already have an account on GPF and want to change name then follow following steps.
