A FREE STEP-BY-STEP GOOGLE SITES TRAINING WITH IMAGES

Learn Google Sites free - a quick introduction

Welcome to the ultimate Google Sites tutorial!

Learning how to use Google Sites has never been simpler.

What you will learn during the Google Sites tutorial

Google Sites allows you to make a website by yourself, even if you have never made a website before.

You don’t need any experience with web development, and you barely need any technical expertise. The interface is user-friendly, and you won’t have to think twice about anything.

You can use Google Sites free with a personal Google account or a managed Google Workspace account. However, if you choose to create free Google Sites, you won’t be able to connect them to a domain name.

This beginner-friendly training contains all you need to know about Google Sites’ features and settings – it covers every single option and throws in some quick tips.

We cover everything you need to know, from creating a site and adding collaborators to editing its interface, adding content, configuring settings, and more.

At this point, Google has decided to ditch the classic version of Google Sites, so we will be working with the new Google Sites in this training.

Create and manage websites on Google Sites

You’ll start the training by seeing how to open Google Sites and create a new Google site.

We’ll also show you how to do other basic things, such as making a copy of a site, deleting or restoring a site.

Learn how to add and manage site pages and their settings

Next, you need to know how to create and manage your Google Sites website pages.

Next, we’ll look at the features available to you while editing your Google Sites website.

You’ll see how to style its interface, make it look the way you want, and then add content such as text, images, and even videos, maps, and more.

In the near future, we will also show you how to use Google Sites templates to help you create stylish sites faster.

Add collaborators and make your Google Sites public on the internet

After that, we will walk you through granting other people access to edit the site with you and restricting their permissions.

Finally, we’ll go step by step through things like previewing how your site looks on different devices, changing your Google Sites link, making your site public or private, hiding or showing it to search engines like Google, and more.

Is Workspace123 affiliated with Google?

No, we are not affiliated with Google. However, we absolutely love their services. It is quite literally true that we know Google Workspace better than the palms of our hands.

We are proud to say that we have been in the business of supporting Google Workspace administrators and end-users with every conceivable task for almost a decade.

We have assisted a wide range of organizations of all sizes, from startups and small businesses to enormous organizations employing tens of thousands of people and even schools.

Nowadays, we create professional Google apps tutorials and help resources.

How is this Google Workspace training better than other options out there?

This question should rather be, “How isn’t it better?”.

It is cheaper (completely free) and often more effective than hiring someone to help.
It is easier to follow and understand than Google’s Help Center, YouTube videos, or any other digital resources you can find.
It is easier, faster, and usually more effective than contacting Google Workspace support or any live person. You don’t need to wait in a queue, talk or chat with anyone, wait for them to reply, or deal with someone inexperienced.
On the other hand, we are there for you at any time, and it only takes seconds to find what you need and get things done.

Workspace123 provides the smartest, quickest, most user-friendly, and by far the most enjoyable Google apps tutorials, tips, and tricks.
