What Google Sites is

Google Sites is a web tool for creating sites for teams, projects, and events without programming. Its drag-and-drop editor arranges content on a grid that adjusts to different devices, and users can start from premade templates or make custom ones. Collaborators can edit together in real time. A site can include Google Docs, Slides, Sheets, Forms, Charts, YouTube videos, calendars, maps, and Drive files; users can also embed website pages or sections and add HTML, CSS, or JavaScript. Owners publish by choosing a web address and setting who can view the site, including people outside their organization. Published sites work on computers, phones, and tablets, but editing requires a computer. Sites are hosted and support custom domains. A free offering is listed; Google Workspace Business Starter costs $7 a month per user, Business Standard $14 a month per user, and Business Plus $22 a month per user. Site content and embedded material count toward Drive storage.
