Google’s support

On Google Sites, there's no functional difference between the one from personal gmail and the one from Google Workspace. There is one key difference, however, and that is the ability to get troubleshooting and support.


Google Workspace includes Google Sites as one of its core services. You can contact Google Support directly whether you have an issue with Google Sites or want to take advantage of the Google Sites tips. Depending on your project, it may be worth your time and money.


Do I need a custom domain for Google Sites?

Google sites can be built without a business domain. The default url for Google Sites is sites.google.com. To reserve your google sites url, enter a unique name, such as sites.google.com/yourbusinessname.


It is also important to note that many scammers build phishing sites with sites.google.com, so some social media sites and other website networks consider sites.google.com to be a phishing or spam site.


For this reason, you need a domain name for your project, brand, or business. It costs just $12 per year to register the domain.


Your Google sites can be connected to your domain once you buy it.
