Guttering should use either a round or square downpipe. This will be joined to the downpipe which you ll need to position directly over the ground level drain. Guttering should slope down toward its downspout at least 1 cm per 3 5 m of length or inch per 10 feet. The downpipe will probably require a couple of offset bends fitting just below the gutter outlet so the pipe can be fixed against the wall.

If the distance is less than 3 5 m long or 10 ft raise the far side nail by 1 cm or lower the downspout side nail by 1 cm or inch. Start by fitting the section of guttering with the outlet. It could be a stop end outlet at the end of the gutter or a running outlet in the middle of the gutter. Hopefully now you will see that putting up gutters is a relatively easy task so long as you are methodical and are safe on your ladder.
