  3. Fill out all the information.

Setting up Your Page

Go to Google Sites, log in and click Create new Site. Google has many templates to choose from. All of the templates are editable and extremely flexible. Giving your site a theme adds personality and makes your site unique. Give your site a name and a URL. Generally it's a good idea to leave the URL the same as your site name for consistency and it'll be easier for people to search for your page. Finish off by clicking Create Site.
