Google Sites can be used to create websites that contain pages that are made up of gadgets and Google Workspace elements such as shared calendars, documents, videos and more. You can set a theme for a site, add images and formatting to brand the site, and share the site with collaborators and viewers as required.

A new site will be created and displayed on screen. To name the new site:

As with docs, sheets and slides, your work in the new Google Sites will be saved automatically as you build your site - there is no need to click on a Save button after making a change. To close a site and return to the Sites home page, click on the Sites icon in the top-left corner of the screen: 

Creating a site from a template

As well as creating a blank site, you can create sites based on pre-set templates. This will create a new site with content alraedy added, which you can change as required.

To create a site based on a template, choose the template you want to use on the Sites home page.

A new site will be created that contains pages that can be customised as required.
