Create a wonderful, yet simple site with the powerful Google Sites application. This tool is provided freely from Google and helps users create powerful sites that center around their content. You can upload images and change the theme till you feel it fits your personality.

Step 1  

Open Your Web Browser.

Step 2  

Go to the Google Sites Homepage.

Step 3  

If you already have a Google Account, please enter it into the Sign In area. If you do not have a Google Account to Sign In with, please click the Sign Up for Sites link under the Sign In area.

 

Step 4  

After Signing In, please click the Create Site button.  

  • Now you will be asked to fill out a series of boxes, most of which are highly important to your site.
    • The First input asks for a site name. It is best to choose something unique. This will help to keep your site easily distinguishable from others by any closer name. 
    • The Second input asks for a site description. This is just a simple sentence. It may be good to specify that you are a blogger, a group, or a church. This will again set your site apart from others like it. 
    • The Rest of these inputs are up to you. You should be able to determine if your site should be mature, or the theme, or if it should be public.
 

Step 5  

The site is simple to enhance. If you have used a text editor similar to Microsoft Word, or OpenOffice, then it won't be any different.

Step 6  

From this point on, what you do is entirely up to you, whether you type information on your homepage, or maybe you add more pages, the choice is yours. Enjoy!

Step 7

Tips

  • Keep information up to date.
  • Experiment with designs to find one that works.

Warnings

  • It is important to remember that if your site hosts inappropriate content, check the box to say this otherwise Google may be allowed to sue if his conduct is reported.
