What it is

Google Sites is a web tool for creating sites for teams, projects, and events without programming skills. Its drag-and-drop editor uses an automatic grid that adapts to different devices, with premade and custom templates. Collaborators can edit together in real time. Pages can include Google Docs, Slides, Sheets, Forms, Charts, YouTube videos, calendars, maps, and Drive files, or embed website sections and HTML, CSS, or JavaScript. Owners publish with a web address and choose who can view the site, including people outside an organisation. Published sites work on computers, phones, and tablets, but editing requires a computer. Google lists Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, and Safari for viewing. Hosting and custom domains are supported, while sites and embedded content count toward Drive storage. A free offering is listed; Google Workspace Business Starter costs $7 per user/month, Standard 14.00 USD, and Plus 22.00 USD.
