Beware Googlepages Owners

I have a news for all those people owning personal websites on Googlepages. Google has stopped accepting new users for Google Page Creator, the company’s online web site creation tool. Current users can continue using Google Pages, but the company wants new users to sign up for Google Sites instead.

Google Sites is a web site/wiki creator that Google launched an year back. GoogleSites allows you to create editable pages, embed videos, calendars, and documents. Later this year, Google will transition all web sites made with the Google Page Creator over to Google Sites.

If anyone’s ever posted a link to your files at yourname.googlepages.com, that link could break later this year, because Google Sits uses a different URL structure. Hopefully Google will offer existing users the chance to transition to the new service while keeping their existing URLs. But to be on safer side, start backing up your hosted files just in case Google disappoints us all.
