Excellent tutorial!!! My S.O. & I have been struggling with the classic Google Sites for years, turning out "almost good enough" product, always thinking "Why isn't Google doing better." This was similar to when Google Docs only offered a handful of fonts... Thankx again.

Outstanding video primer. I messed around with google sites back in about 2012 to use it as a mobile site platform. I haven't looked at it since. I see this as a good way to build a quick site with a link for SEO purposes.

Thanks for creating this video! I'm creating a new course where students will be using the new Google Sites for their portfolio, and this video is included as the main tutorials. Thanks so much.

Wow, looking forward to this, great video. Thanks, huge help getting kicked off with the new sites!

Thanks very much. I all ways find your video professional and well explained and clear .

I'm happy to know this is still in an Alpha or Beta testing phase because it IS beautiful but I was concerned about having my old site not being compatible or looking wonky. I look forward to more of your videos on the New Google Sites as it progresses. Thanks again!

Thanks, we got the early beta too. Playing around with it for a volunteer forum for our nonprofit. Will come in handle when I want to link keep informational content to the pages.

Okay, I literally hated the old google sites, I must have made 20 and each one ended in confusion and eventual disappointment. Now that said, the number two thing I hate on all the internet is when someone who is obviously bright, and there are a lotttttt of people on this thang, but bright or smart people don't know that they are trying to talk as fast as their brain is thinking, GREAT, only the rest of the world cannot process the information at the speed of thought as fast as they do. My last thing I will say is you are the first person to talk fast that I was shaking my head up and down as to understanding two thirds of what you were saying, and that is just incredible! If you could slow down about 20 per cent you could be awesome. Now I will replay and replay most sections of what you are teaching and I will get at least a working knowledge of what you presented here. Thank you

Thanks for the tutorial! I've asked my Year 7 ICT classes to watch it so they can start building their own sites. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for that super tutorial on Google suites. I plan to share it with my students and encourage them to use it to create an ePortfolio of their learning and work product..

This was helpful. Thanks!

SUPER HELPFUL. Thanks for helping me get started.

Thanks so much for all of the great information. I absolutely love the Google site. It's so user friendly. Very detailed. Again Thanks so much!

Great overview video of the new g.sites version. It is an exciting upgrade!

Thank you so much for doing this video tutorial on the new google sites! I don't feel so overwhelmed and intimidated in starting to do my e-portfolio homework esp for someone like me who is not at all a tech savvy person.

Good tutorial.. is there any way to add your own html pages in this.. or to embed charts?

Great Video, I feel more confident right away! Thanks

Great video. Thanks for the clear and well-paced explanation! Do you know how or if the new google sites works with/replaces google classroom?

Thank you for making this so easy.

Thank you for all of your videos ... i have learned so many new things from you!

Thanks for helping me use the new google sites to create my site!!

Awesome! Thank you so much!

So looking forward to the new google sites - I have made many google sites and changed templates in the existing version of google sites - this looks so much easier. Hope it happens soon!

Hey Jamie! how do I go about adding MY calendar to my site. oh! sorry, I am a teacher and I'm in charge of making a website for my church. this is good practice for me to get my shop site up and running. (On that one I'll be bugging you about google forms LOL I need to make some self-assessment/self-reflection google forms for that.) It just seems that when I hit calendar it puts a generic calendar in but without the info that I've added. if you can help - I'd be very grateful! And i am very grateful for this tutorial - by far the best and simplest explained. Great job!

Thank you Jamie for the concise and helpful introduction to the new Google Sites. Good job.

Thanks for the tutorial. I'm going to get started on my site 👍

Always learn from your videos :)

What I like is the power this will have for students to create their own websites as another platform. The old Sites was terrible but this update will be fantastic to use in classrooms. Can't wait to incorporate into GAFE

I need to do some internal training, how do you set up your videos with you in the video with the screen background?

Great video thank you for your amazing explanation

Hi, thanks for the tutorial. I am having fun creating my site, but I cannot seem to add my twitter feed to my home page as I did on my classic site. Any tips or ideas?

So wonderful. Thank you.

You did a great job on this video. Very helpful. Thank you

Thank you! I love the simplicity of this!

Thanks a lot. I'm a teacher who is wanting to set this up as an appraisal tool. If I make a google site as the owner. Can I copy the site so teachers can have a unified template. We don't want the teachers to move things around for example change the school logo and take of the code of Ethics etc... but can they still add documents to the site, add videos etc as editors? OR do they have to be owners of the site?

Jamie! How easy is it to edit and change your site once it has been up and running? Is it just as simple as going in and change and publish? I've watched a bunch of vids and your's is best - THANK YOU!

great overview. Thanks.

I am having trouble creating subpages...for example, an "essays" page that contained under the "writing" page tab. Is this possible to do?

Does it still have a "file cabinet" page type where pdf files can be uploaded to the Google Site and stored/organized there?

If you were to add another user to your site, is there a way to make it so that they can only suggest edits? Similar to how you can go into suggesting mode in Docs?

awesome! thanks for this video

Hi Jamie As and educator. How do you set up a document submission? We can do some work through Google forms. However we are wondering about the best ways to create a document submission within New Google Sites for out students.

what is the best way to re direct custom Domain to new google sites?

Thank you for the video. I have a problem once I publish the website. I keep getting an adress with 'view' literally in the middle. Can anyone help please?

Amazaing Video!!!

Thanks for video! how can I add my domain to new google sites? pls help me. thank you so much!

How do you recommend I embed tasks to google sites? I was hoping I could embed something like Wunderlist or Trello to my google site. I know there are tasks through google but I can’t seem to embed it. My last ditch effort would have been to use google docs. Any other recommendations?

Hi, My current webpage is created in google sites. Do you know if there is a way to migrate it over to the new sites (we are an early roll out school and I have access to it) ~or~ in the alternative, is there a way to add html so I could copy and paste my current pages into the new sites? Thank you!

I was happy with my old sites. Is there any option to keep them? I tried one older, larger site (more than 50 pages), and it totally trashed it.

Nice video. How to insert image in between the lines or paragraphs?

Does the new sites allow for "alt text" or other readability features for ADA?

do you know if we can still use page level permissions in new sites?

Are you going to do a new video with the new changes to Sites? I would like to see your view on the changes. Thanks.

Can I add HTML? I have a live map (with real time tracking) I want to embed.

How do I create different layouts. I cant seem to be able to pick different layouts like in the classic sites

Hi Teacher ,i am trying to do my website with the new google ,my question is if i publish it can i do some change after. i know that to create your website it's free but, if i publish it, is there any payment like monthly or yearly ? Thanks

I really like and appreciate your tutorial. Your instructions are clear and useful. However, I wish you would also clarify the numerous limitations of the new Google Site in terms of selection of font color, font style etc. I find the new Google Site to present an easy and fast cookie-cutter approach and personally prefer the classic site's ability to offer more professional looking options.

is it possible to embed public pdfs/docs, gadgets and widgets inside of the new Google sites yet?

Hi, thank you for a great demonstration. I only have one question - when you add google drive folders and documents on the site or sub-sites - does the access restrictions you have previously placed on the drive docs/sheets etc. still apply or will everyone who views the site see the content of the google drive docs/sheets/slides etc. ?

Will the new google sites have the ability to have both a horizontal and vertical navigation pane?

I've been ask to update a site that was created on the old Classic Google site and I just created the new page to go on the old sites URL but the old edit for the site. How do I put the new Google site page into the old Google site page? They do not see each other.

What about integrating the app with Google forms so that you could create a note taking system for class for students.

With the old version of Google sites I copied the URL and forwarded my domain name to this URL. Apparently this does not work with the new Google sites? Any idea? Thanks.

If you build a website that is linked to Google business pages you are offered the chance to buy a domain but not with when building this option. Can you please help?

nice one sir. thanks

Can you create anything that looks like columns going across the page?

I do not have a Drive Folder button on my Google Site. Do you know why that might be or how I can get it to appear

Great job!

You are awesome! This helped me a lot. Thank you!

Can parents subscribe to new posts on the new google sites? Or how can you notify others of changes to site?

Hello. I have a question about when the website is ready to be published. All I want is that there are some people (possibly a class) that has access to this website. Is it possible to make it private?

Can I use google sites to create a social network website? whit a profile, Wall and business internal chat

Thank you for a great tutorial!

Hey. Do you think you could help me out? I click "New" in Google Drive, but when I click more, there is no option for Google Sites.

Can OLD Google siktes be Converse-sko to New Google siktes. If so, How. Would the old site be lost or can I return to the old. Thankful for an answer.

Nice teaching ❤

what a great tutorial! I have a question, Can I use the new google site to create a paid membership site portal? So once members have paid they can access secured modules like wishlist or member press. thank you in advance

You are doing great in this presentation. What sort of apps did you use where you make yourself visible while doing the tutorial?

Your stuff is much informative , I am looking at a situation where google will make users upload their images and video on the google forms with or is it possible to implement a form with this new google site where users can upload their own videos unto your site. To make my point much clearer, from users view point assuming you have created a form on your new google site and you want users to fill and upload their pictures and videos is it possible to implement this on the new google site ..Thanks

If you own your own URL, can you somehow place that in google sites and work on it in google sites?

Do you have a link to a tutorial for how to make a screencast like you did with your (green screened?) image in the bottom?
