# Create a Docker Hub account & repository
You've built something really cool, you should share it. In this next section,
you'll do just that. You'll need a Docker Hub account. Then, you'll push your
image up to it so other people with Docker Engine can run it.
## Step 1: Sign up for an account
1. Use your browser to navigate to <a href="https://hub.docker.com/?utm_source=getting_started_guide&utm_medium=embedded_MacOSX&utm_campaign=create_docker_hub_account" target="_blank">the Docker Hub signup page</a>.
Your browser displays the page.

2. Fill out the form on the signup page.
Docker Hub is free. Docker does need a name, password, and email address.
3. Press **Signup**.
The browser displays the welcome to Docker Hub page.
## Step 2: Verify your email and add a repository
Before you can share anything on the hub, you need to verify your email address.
1. Open your email inbox.
2. Look for the email titled `Please confirm email for your Docker Hub account`.
If you don't see the email, check your Spam folder or wait a moment for the email to arrive.
2. Open the email and click the **Confirm Your Email** button.
The browser opens Docker Hub to your profile page.
4. Choose **Create Repository**.
The browser opens the **Create Repository** page.
5. Provide a Repository Name and Short Description.
6. Make sure Visibility is set to **Public**.
When you are done, your form should look similar to the following:
![Add repo](tutimg/add_repository.png)
6. Press **Create** when you are done.
Docker Hub creates your new repository.
## Where to go next
On this page, you opened an account on Docker Hub and created a new repository.
In the next section, you populate the repository [by tagging and pushing the
image you created earlier](step_six.md).
