How to create a contact form in Google Sites

Recently I've been building my webiste with Google Site and explored about how to create a contact form.

How to create a contact form for viewers to leave you messages in Google Sites?
This can be done with Google Form and Google Sheets.

Here are the steps:

1. Log into your Google Drive, click "New", then select Google Form.





2. When you create a Google Form, name it as, eg. "Contact me". A Google Sheet with name "Contact me (Response)" will automatically be created. This Google Sheet is connected with the Google Form to collect the messages from viewers. You can also change the theme of your Google Form.

3. After you create the Google Form, click "File", select "Embed", then copy the code.
4. Create a page named Contact in your Google Site. Click the little Pencil to edit it. Click "<html>", paste the code, click "Save". Now you can see a contact form in your Google Site.

5. Log into your Google Drive and open the Google Sheet "Contact me (Response)" . Click "Tools" and select "Notification rules", then you can choose when to receive emails for message notifications.
