links for.

This is of course link if you already

have a trello account.

This link is also is used if you already

have a trello account.

And this, will just bring you back to the home (trello)

website.

Which is brings us to the main topic, “Creating a Free

Account”.

You can either click on “Sign up – It’s Free”

or “Sign up”.

If you scroll down, there is an option for you to create

an account using a Google account.

On this case, we will create a new

account.

Your email address.

Your password.

Then click on “Create New

Account”.
