How to Build a Website with ChatGPT Sites

About this video

Kevin rebuilds the aging Google Sites website for his small business, the Kevin Cookie Company, from scratch using ChatGPT Sites. Starting at chatgpt.com, he opens Sites from the sidebar’s More menu, clicks Create Site to enter Work mode, and describes the business, pages, and look and feel in a prompt, attaching the company logo via Add photos and files. He advises starting with a simple description rather than planning every detail, then refining conversationally. After a few minutes the first version appears in a preview pane that can go full-screen, with colors matched to the logo. His feedback asks Sites to remove the repeated logos everywhere except the header and to add realistic photos of freshly baked cookies; the revision produces matching product photos for items like the chocolate chip, double chocolate, and sea salt crunch cookies without him placing images manually. He then asks Sites to make the bottom contact form fully functional with storage for submissions, tests it with sample information, and views the saved entry as admin. Publishing goes through the Share dialog or the site’s three-dot menu: the URL can be renamed, a custom domain can be connected with DNS records Sites provides, and the site can be shared with specific people by email or made public to anyone with the link. Built-in analytics show unique visitors, page views, and traffic over time, which he describes as fairly basic. The closing point is that describing and refining by conversation is far easier than hand-writing HTML, CSS, or JavaScript.

Key takeaways

• Start in ChatGPT via More > Sites > Create Site, describe the business, pages, and style in a prompt, and attach assets like a logo instead of planning every detail upfront
• Refinement is conversational: plain-language feedback removed repeated logos and added realistic, name-matched cookie photos without manual image placement
• Ask Sites to make forms fully functional and it will also set up storage so submissions can be viewed later from the admin side
• Sharing offers a renameable URL, optional custom domain connection with provided DNS records, and either per-person email sharing or public anyone-with-the-link access
• Built-in analytics cover unique visitors, page views, and traffic over time, giving a basic performance view after publishing
