How can I create a Google Site and use it with a Google Domain?
I registered a domain via Google Domains (let's call it example.com
). I then created a Google Site (let's call it sites.google.com/site/example123
)
Now, I'm trying to point example.com
to that address.
To this end, I added a CNAME record on Google Domains, but as I understand it, I also need to configure the Web Address
on Google Sites.
However, when I enter www.example.com
or example.com
there, it tells me
This location is already in use by another service. Please pick a different one.
With no further explanation or hints. Googling wasn't much help - I found some forum messages from 7 years ago complaining about this.
