Making Your Google Sites Website Public
Every website's goal is to be seen by its audience. If you’ve built a site with Google Sites, ensuring it’s publicly visible is a crucial step. But just making it public isn’t enough—you also need to optimise it for search engines to attract organic traffic.
Why Visibility Matters for Google Sites
When your website is publicly visible:
🌍 Anyone with the link can access it.
🔍 Search engines like Google can index your content.
📈 You can reach a broader audience.
Without these steps, your hard work might remain invisible to potential visitors and search engines alike.
Ensure Your Google Site is Public
By default, Google Sites are set to private. Here’s how to make yours public:
Open your Google Site.
Click Share with Others icon at the top right (next to gear icon).
In the popup window, under 'General access', make sure 'Published site' is set to Public.
Save your changes.
Useful tip: Test your settings by opening your site in an incognito browser tab to ensure it’s publicly accessible.
