Managing Google Tools for a Blog: Email Setup & Future Access Concerns

[CloudLiving23]

Hi everyone,

I’m hoping to get some advice on managing Google tools for my blog site. Here’s my situation:
- I currently have an AdWords account set up under my personal email, which I use for paid ads on Google.
- I’d now like to integrate Google Analytics, Search Console, and Tag Manager with my blog to track and optimize performance.

My main questions are:

1) Should I create a new email address specifically for these tools instead of using my personal one?
2) I also want my webmaster to have access to Analytics, Search Console, and Tag Manager.
3) Lastly, in the future, if I decide to sell my blog, I’d rather not pass along my personal email.

What’s the best approach to manage these tools so I can easily grant and transfer access if needed?

Thanks in advance for any insights!

Your GSC account and your Analytics and AdWords accounts belong to you only, you can't sell or transfer them to a buyer. You can authorize others to have access to the accounts if you wish, but your email doesn't stay with the account if/when it is sold or transferred. The buyer would need to use their own accounts.
