In this step-by-step tutorial, learn how you can create your own web site with a domain name, including .com, .net, .org, and many others. I walk through how to use Google Domains to buy a domain and Google Sites to build the web site. At the end, we publish the web site. By the end of this video, you’ll know exactly how to build your own website.

Reasons I like Google Domains compared to other domain registrars:
• Pricing is simple and it doesn’t change year to year.
• Privacy protection comes included, hiding your name and address from the public.
• The interface is intuitive and simple similar to other Google products
• Use the same two factor authentication that your Google account uses for enhanced security.

Can you password protect some of the links on the website so members only or employee's only can see certain things? I saw a manage button under the publish site.
Kevin what size should I make my images before uploading? if they all are 10mb each it takes a lot of space on gdrive and the site is slow.
thanks for any help.
You are helping me to finish the website I started a few months ago. I don't need a professional designer with their own domain since I already bought one and maintain it with the ever-all-purpose Google.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Does anyone know if it's possible to add a Daylimotion video instead of a Youtube one?
Too expensive. I want AT&T Website and a Bell Website. I did not get it. I want them to stream my sites – organize my sites – analytics and much more for free for at least 3 months in use. Pay? Pay for what?
Excellent tutorial
write me up👆👆 for web develop.
I love the B/G music at the end of this great presentation.
OMG! That was so easy! I am eternally grateful 🙏😄
Hi kevin,
How to insert the social media links to the webste?
How to make a customers or visitors contact and email data?
Awesome as usual
Thanks in advance
Awesome! Thank you. ❤️
When I register a domain name with Google, is it possible to also set up sub-domains to link out to features that are not available to be run directly within Google sites?
Do I have to pay for hosting the my google site separately? or is it included?
Great video man, helped me out so much man, thanks a lot man.
I love it how you build the website 😍
Great content!👍
How easy is it to rank Google Sites, compared to say, a WordPress website?
The best training video ever! Thank you Kevin
To be sincere, I love the tutorial.
It's well explained. Thanks alot for this.
Thank you.
Google Sites does make it look very simple, but I've been staring at that template for several months now until I searched for a tutorial and watched this one.
Thank you for such a complete and comprehensive walkthrough!
Great tutorial Exactly what I was looking for. I am currently stuck on how to add a calendar or book appointment page for the website. Do you have a video related to this topic I could watch?
Kevin the amount of value you provide with your videos is ridiculous. Thank you 🙏🏻
Kevin, thank you on enlighten us all with your knowledge!!
Thank you very much for an informative video! You rock Kevin!🙌✅
Awesome video! How do I receive payments with the call to action button in the banner? Thank you, again!👍
great video can you make one on using Glide with google sheets or any no code web app builder… Thanks…
This dude still has the site paying $12 yearly even though he doesn't update it weekly.
Holy Moley….that was insanely easy for me to begin to get a website going. Thank you.
Thanks so much, Kevin. Can you build also the WIX website and google domain email for it?
This video is so complete, thanks for sharing. One question, if I coded my own website with html, css and JS can I upload it to google?
Thanks sir
Hey, Kevin! Very informative video. I have been waiting for my website to go live for more than 2 days now. Does it usually take longer?
