    I use Google SItes quite a lot for class content, elective subject selection for students and to teaching digital citizenship where students show their learning in their own Google Site. I often have teachers from my school asking me how to start making a Google Site and now I will just give them a link to your video as it is so easy to understand and no waffle in there. I wish there was a video like this when I started using Google Sites as it would have saved me hours of trial and error. I've followed you for about 2 years now and find your videos informative, helpful and straight to the point (I don't have time for irrelevant waffle on videos). Thanks for the great content.

    One of the best tutorials on Google Sites. Sethi explains all the aspects in clear and concise manner. Not only he tells how to use the features, he uses them and demonstrates how to use them. I had learned Google Sites myself by experimenting, but I had missed on many aspects. Thanks to this video, I know more now.

    Seth, you're a legend mate! Love your teaching style and how you explain everything in simple, non technical term that even I can understand! What's got me is your video is 2 years old already but the Google Sites format hasn't changed at all, unlike WordPress and many other website builders I've tried to follow. If the video is outdated, it makes learning that much harder and gives you nothing but headaches!

    1. Can we make a fixed background image on google sites?
    2. Can we make a sticky header or even other things (text/image) fixed position?
    3. Can we add css and javascript on existing google sites element (not from embedded)? If not, can someone give an alternative, since the embedded feature doesn't allow us to make it fullscreen size so its really annoying that i couldn't code background image.
    thank you

      @@FlippedClassroomTutorials wow.... that's interesting. My intuition is that Google will "secretly" promote their own Google Sites on SERP, and will deny it in public, lol. What do you think, Sethi?

    How to promote site Google for affiliate marketing

      @FlippedClassroomTutorials  2 года назад

      Google sites would not be my preferred platform if tou are looking for affiliate marketing. It's an excellent tool tool get started online and have a website. However monetization and affiliate marketing would be better done using a different platform.

      Separately, can Google Sites have a blog?
