Google Sites allows you to create a simple personal website, wiki, or project site without any prior programming or design skills. With an intuitive drag & drop interface, you can work alone or collaborate with others to build your Site in a short amount of time.

Google Sites is a good solution for:

  • Showcasing your portfolio of personal or professional accomplishments
  • Creating a project, event, or team website 

Note: Google Sites is not appropriate for departmental websites. See Sites powered by Pantheon for the recommended alternative.
