CTA buttons for Google Sites

Web buttons are clickable call-to-action (CTA) images that often appear on websites as an alternative to text-based links. You can use it on your website to increase conversions by creating an appealing visual link to your products/services.


Google Sites offers three options for CTA buttons: Filled, Outline, and Text. However, if you want your site to be attractive and professional, you need to add more style. I'll show you how to create beautiful CTA buttons and icons for your Google Sites.


Option #1. Use Free Button Generator

There are many free button generators available on the internet if you search for them on Google.


For this demo, I have used ‘Da button Factory’. Enter button text for CTA like 'Contact Sales' or 'Get Started', change font and button style, background, size, and color, and then download. The button can be embedded into your Google Sites once you download it. It's as simple as that.

To resize a button in Google Sites, use the 'uncrop' option. It will automatically resize with the same ratio as the button.

Option #2. Use Google Drawings

However, if you want to further design buttons with background images or icons, you can use google drawings. Just go to Google Drive and create a new google Drawings.


Upload images to embed within your icon, enter text for CTA and save as graphic images such as PNG, JPG format.

Again, you can adjust the button size using the 'uncrop' option. Add a hyperlink so that when users click the link, they go to your designated landing page.
