Getting Started with Google Sites

Watch the video below for a quick tour of Google Sites.

  • Visit sites.google.com and sign in with your mtholyoke.edu email address.
    • Choose a template option if you would like to create a brand new site.
    • Sites you have worked on in the past will be listed below.
  • Once you have selected a site to work on, click on text or other page elements to edit.
  • Use the right sidebar to add more elements, or organize pages, or change your theme.
  • Use the menu in the upper toolbar to review/undo, preview, share with others, edit settings, or publish your site. Your site will not be visible  on the web until you publish it.
