However, you'll want to set up accounts to test your website. Accounts where you pose as:

How to use gmail aliases
Once you have a gmail address you will be able to create 'alias' email addresses that will be sent to your one gmail account.
Example: Let's say your gmail address is [email protected]
Once you have this account, you will be able to create unique email addresses for 'identities' you'll want to create when you start training and testing out HandsOn Connect.
To create an alias you just add a plus sign after the first part of your name, and then any letters, numbers. For example:
Each of these will be treated as a unique email address by salesforce, which will allow you to create multiple salesforce logins.
Save your REAL business address to use as your main administrative login into HandsOn Connect and Salesforce.
When we start the training classes, you'll use your gmail account to create aliases so that you can test your public site from a number of different personas!
Just prepare for training by having a gmail account that you can use!
