Regarding tip number seven. If we could embed a <div> directly into the page code, instead of into an iFrame as currently appears to happen, then the link would not open a new tab, and would instead jump to the target in the same tab. This can be done in regular HTML pages, although I guess it could possibly become a security issue, as someone may be able to inject unwanted code directly into the page, although I don't know if that would be any worse than them embedding it onto a page via an iFrame. Although Google should ideally be able to ccreate a solution to that issue.
Also, if <div>'s could somehow be injected directly into the page code at any location, lots of different and valuable features could be added to Google Sites Pages that are currently impossible to add.

Ty u have now I’m one step closer to making my first website at the age of 11

Fantastic tips! About half I had never heard before. Going to be using the "Link to Header" one right away.
I preach in sermon series, and there may be eight or more listed on one series page. This allows me to email my congregation and link them directly to the appropriate message.
I really appreciate that you are both thorough and brief (not many people pull off that combination).

I especially love the fact that you can embed a "Google Drive" video into your web page. Everyone is using YouTube video... but when you do this, your visitor can click on "Watch on YouTube", and now they are no longer on your site. Maybe YouTube will start to show them a similar video from your competitor... no good.

I like adding the external link that you explained. I included my social media links to my footer. I will add them to those as well.

Hi, can i add the Payment function into Google Sites? How to do

[bethgibson]

How did you get the pages to show at the top of your cover page?

[Sukmihugenuutz]

Another great one is for social media handles you can use the logo(image) resize and attach a link to each so when they tap it they'll be connected to your social page 🔥💪

[nicoleandersen]

Thank you! Great tips. Could you give a tutorial on how to insert a chart or graph on Google Sites that will update in real time as the spreadsheet is updated.

Hi Sethi, thanks a lot for your great work on YT. Here's a tip u didn't cover yet, I think. Is possible to copy emoji available in google docs and paste them in your google site to make wonderful icon in it! U can put them even into a button (a key or a padlock, for example) and it works perfectly.
Keep up with the amazing work!
