Goolge Page Creator Gets Updates

Google Page Creator has been neglected for quite a while, but a notification email from the GPC team announced yesterday that there were a few updates.

The first update is to allow users to delete the "home" page of their site, and with the second update, users who have more than one page for their site can now choose one from them to set as the home page for that site.


To change your home page, click on the "Site settings" link in site
manager. Under the "Homepage" option you will see a drop down menu
listing all of the pages you've created. Click on the one you wish to
be your homepage and it will be changed.


Although there is now option to delete the home page, there is still no option to delete the whole site. This is really a disappointment, and there are a whole lot of people out there who just created test sites in their GPC out of excitement when the feature to create more than one site was first released.

The second disappointment is that there is still no "file manager" like other hosting sites like 50webs. Google could have made it possible for users to choose WYSIWYG interface or advanced one; now the Google Page Creator is no more than a toy to create "templated" pages only.

Also if a user chooses the advanced interface, Google should give him/her the option to choose the ability to create five sites with 100MB of storage each or have 500MB of unified storage for just a single site.

Until then...
