- Did you know you can use Google Sites as an Intranet solution?
Many Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) customers don't fully realise the capabilities of Google Sites. It is an excellent solution for customers looking to connect all of their solutions together across the Google Workspace platform.
Google sites are the best option when it comes to an intranet solution. In this video, we take you through a demo as well as an overview of how Google Sites can work as an intranet solution.

As a user of Google Workspace and prospective purchaser of an intranet solution, I was hoping this video would show employees effectively using a Google-Sites based intranet. This video instead focuses mainly on _building_ sites (which I agree _is_ easy) that become intranet solutions, but not a video that shows employees actually _using_ them like an employee would. I'm finding that modern conceptions of intranet tools complete with social paradigms and AI to surface relevant and individualized info in customizable dashboards for each user in an organization are a paradigm shift up in terms of how employees can have really great and helpful intranets that can do things far beyond what Google Workplace tools can help one build.
Thanks for the feedback Gabe!
Thank you! It was very useful. I have created my website course pages using this tutorial.
Delighted it was helpful!

Please make a video about how to install facebook pixel and Google Analytics and Google tag manager on Google sites website?
@@TAHA-TOUABA-RADIOGRAPHER I agree totally
Have you found a way to add a super menu above the site so that you can flip among a suite of departments with their own linked project sites? Any vendors doing this? If so l am hunting for a way to see across and search across all sites!! That’s an intranet…
HI Damson valuable information what you are sharing thank you. Please advise how to grant access page wise.
Hello, Mr. Damson
Thanks for the video! :-) Just a question, however: how can we set the site in order to allow only people from inside the company to have access? Is there any possibility to create a kind of login? Thanks!
Great questions Fabiano. Yes you can indeed setup Google Sites like this. That is how it can be used as an intranet instead of just a company website. Instead of publishing the site externally you can just share it with someones Gmail or Google account. This way you can limit who has access to the Google Site. The best way to do this within an organisation would be via G Suite for Business or Education and manage it via a Google Group.

Very nice video and quick review about sites, I would like to know Google Sites can be shared with other out of the company?
Hi there, glad you enjoyed. This link might be helpful for you to understand the sharing options - support.google.com/sites/answer/6372880?hl=en
Can an admin restrict all sites so that they are internal only. And then gate keep sites that are not?
How do you make it so that you can’t access the site without the login credentials of your employees etc.?
Yes

i have created a intranet for my real estate team. I have uploaded many documents for the team to use. many times my agents click the document and it says they need permission. Many documents don't say that. Also, they are having problems downloading and printing documents from the intranet. Any suggestions?
hi thanks for the video , i have an issue if you can help . i want to make a links to my local drive in a server \\10.20.....et but i cant do you have an idea about this ? thanks in advance
Hi Isarene,
I am not sure what you mean by links to your local drive. Do you want to add links to your local (internal drive/network) to Google Sites? I don't think this would be possible. You could add a url but it would only work internally unless your local drive was publishing to the web somehow. I would recommend storing the data you want to publish on Google Drive or on Google Sites itself.

How do you limit access to the site? Thanks
Hi there,
From the Admin console Home page, go to Apps and thenGoogle Workspace and then Sites.
Click New Sites.
Choose the following option:
To restrict users from creating or editing sites, select Users cannot edit sites.
Click Save. If you configured an organizational unit or group, you might be able to Inherit or Override a parent organizational unit, or Unset a group.
For more info please follow this link.

OH wow how did you create that sales team calendar?
Hey Dillinger,
You just create another calendar in your google calendar app. It’s easy enough to do. Here is a help file.

@@Damsoncloud Thank you for taking the time to reply, I finally figured it out. I have another question, I have created a sheet with a working calculator at the bottom to calculate insurance rates, after I inserted it, the calculator doesn't work anymore, it's visible but I can't type in numbers & watch it calculate in real time. We're a small startup & G-Suites is all we have at the moment, soon we'll be switching platforms to AWS, but for now this what we have to work with. Does G-Suite allow this?
Do we have to do anything else to be in search results with free google sites? Please..
Once your website is public on the web it will appear in search results. Where it will appear is a matter for SEO which is a separate challenge. I would suggest engaging an SEO expert for that.
thanks bro
Welcome!
I made a Google Intranet site, but external users, although included in our Groups, cannot see the events. Am I missing something or do ALL of my users have to be part of the same business domain (i.e. No External Users allowed)?
Hi there,
It's possible that what is causing the problem here is your calendar, if it's events that are the problem.
You need to add the group to the calendar as well.
Let me know if that helps!
Do you know how to make new pages open in the same tab? I have a escape room in google sites. But everytime i hit a link it opens in a new window.
I don't think there is an update available on this yet unfortunately.
