Request a copy of a free Google Sites template
You can download my free and premium themes from my Google Sites template shop.
Here's how you copy a Google Site, and here's how you can import a theme from a Google Site.
Google Sites only works if you have a Google account like Gmail. This is because the actual Google Site website lives in your Google Drive. If you don't have a Google account one you can create one for free at https://accounts.google.com.
This step is a bit obvious really. Have a mooch at the free templates gallery and find the one which best suits your taste. Click on the View live demo button to see a real version of the website. Then read my terms of use and make sure you're okay with them.
Each free template has a button to take you to a free download in my Google Sites template shop. There's no charge.
Each premium template has a button to take you to a buy and download page in my Google Sites template shop. Price is what you see on the tin.
Follow the steps in my shop and you'll be able to access a read only copy of the template which you can make a copy of. It's the same for free and premium templates. That's it, you're done.
I put a lot of effort into creating free templates for Google Sites and making them available. It would really help me out if you can let me know how you find my site, and provide any feedback on the templates or how you've used them. You can also find me on Twitter and Instagram.
Thank you, and good luck with your project!
