SELLING FROM GOOGLE SITES
Google Sites cannot sell here is what to do about it
Google Sites is free, quick and genuinely useful for an information page. It has no store, no checkout and no way to take a payment, and no plan you can upgrade to that adds one.
WHAT TO KNOW
The parts that decide it and the ones that quietly cost you
No store, at any tier
This is not a paywall. There is no paid version of it to upgrade to.
The usual workaround
Embedding someone else's checkout, which sends your buyer to another brand mid-purchase.
Hard to be found
A Google Sites page rarely competes for the searches a real product page can win.
The address gives it away
A shared subdomain reads as a project rather than a business.
What selling actually needs
Product pages, stock, a cart, a checkout on your own domain, and receipts.
The alternative
A real site with the store in it, built for you at no cost, on your own domain.

QUESTIONS
Before you ask
Can you add a shopping cart to Google Sites?
Not natively. There is no store, no checkout and no payment handling, and no paid tier that adds them. The common workaround embeds a third-party checkout, which moves the buyer off your brand at the moment of payment.
What should I use instead?
A site that treats selling as part of the product. We design and build one for you at no cost, on a domain that is yours.
What does it cost?
The design and the build cost nothing. You pay only the standard costs every website owner in the world pays: domain, hosting, software license. No design fee, and we take no cut of your sales.
Why would this be free?
Because design is not where a website's cost sits. Every website owner in the world pays for the same three things: a domain, hosting, and a software license. That is what you pay, and nothing more.
What does the SEO management cost?
It is $35 a month and it is optional. It covers the ongoing work of being found: position checks, content that answers what people are actually searching for, and the profile and technical work behind it. Every action is performed by hand, not by a tool. Two of the sites we manage reached the first page of Google within a few months.
Do I see the site before it goes live?
Yes. You see the completed website, built with your own content and your own photographs, before anything is published. Nothing goes live until you have looked at it and said so.
