Google Web Designer

October 23, 2022 -

Hey there! I have created tons of websites - not just google sites. But I wanted to share some of my sites to inspire you to get creating. I'd also like to share some of my google site tips with you all. I have multimillion dollar clients who use google sites as well. :)

Tip 1 - Take everything you know about web designer and dumb it down. Like seriously, go into google sites with the idea that you know nothing. This will help you when trying to create Google sites as you wont get frustrated as easily.

Tip 2 - Less is more with google sites. I love Cargo sites and Readymag - but I understand that Google is meant to be simple, so design with less and you can create more.

Tip 3 - Use Emojis to create icons instead of importing images. Google Sites do not support webp images and therefore all images are just too big. Cut image size down by using fonts if you can avoid bringing in PNGs.

Here are my latest designs with links to view them. This is SoulHouse. It uses PayPal add to cart and view cart to create an ecommerce site.

This is the Public Notary - This site uses Noto Emoji as icons for phone and email. You can also create a call now button in Google sites in case you didn't know.

This is a work in progress for an apprenticeship. For those unfamiliar with me - I spent years as a construction apprenticeship training admin. Construction sites are my bread and butter.
