If you want to remove or add a section, just click on the appropriate button at the top. By default, Header and Sidebar are selected and enabled. It’s really easy to change the layout of the site. To do that, go back to your homepage and then click on the gear icon again. Once you have configured the site settings, it’s time to make sure you pick the layout you want for the entire site. The last section lets you add a header image and change the font, color and size for the text in various sections of the site like content area, sidebar, navigation, etc. On the left side, you can also see recent site activity, all your pages, attachments that you upload, page templates you can use, apps scripts, sharing and permissions and themes/colors/fonts. At the bottom, there is an option to make the site responsive by adjusting it for mobile phones. If you want, you can configure Google Analytics and Google Webmaster Tools here also. You can also setup a site notice, which will pop up a message for all visitors of the website. Here you can configure a bunch of options like the site name, site description, the landing page, etc. The first thing I would suggest doing is to click on the gear icon and then click on the Manage site link at the bottom. The important section is at the top where you can edit the current page, create a new page and adjust the settings for the page and the site. You’ll now be brought to the home page for your new site. Click the I’m not a robot button and then click Create at the top. If you chose a blank template, you can select a theme also. You can change it to something else, but it has to be unique amongst all the Google Sites created in the world. By default, it’ll just be sites//site/sitename. Give your site a name and then customize the end of the URL if you like. Make sure to click on the Browse the gallery for more link because there are many more templates broken down into categories like activities & events, business collaboration, schools & education, clubs & organizations, etc. To start off, you can pick from a couple of templates like sports team, classroom site, wedding, etc. To get started, go to and click on the Create button to create your first web site. For Google Apps users, you get 10 GB of space, but for non-app users, you get only 100 MB, so it’s really meant to be a small site.īy default, the site will have a URL starting with, but you can easily use a custom domain name if you have already bought one or purchase one using Google Domains or any other domain registrar. Also, if you do know a bit of coding and are tech-savvy, you can make the site look much more professional. It’s nothing fancy, but it gets the job done for a small family website. As you can see, it’s a really simple webpage with a bunch of widgets added in two columns.
