Google Page Creator is now supposed to be the thing of past as it has recently stopped accepting new users. Being a project of Google Labs, this handy tool was used to create online web sites. The Internet Giant has decided to centralize its attention on Google Sites and therefore new users have to sign up for the Google Sites instead of Google Page Creator.

We are no longer accepting new sign-ups for Page Creator because we have shifted our focus to developing Google Sites, which offers many of the capabilities of Page Creator along with new features like site-level navigation, site-level headers, control over who can see and edit your site, and rich embeddings like calendars, videos, and Google docs.

Google Sites lets you create editable media enriched web pages. Its been a year, when the site has started working. Better known as Wiki Creator, the site was launched after the acquisition of Jotspot.

Google online Page Creator allows users to upload HTML pages externally, the feature that is not available in Google Sites.

While all the current users can continue using Google pages and their pages will automatically experienced a sound transition to Google Sites this year or users can also transfer their pages manually to Google Sites or any other Service providers.

We are committed to making this transition as smooth and easy as possible, and we will post more details as we get closer to the transition time.

The transition does make sense as Google Sites offers same set of features with some extra functionality and does not share any harm but it has one potential problem and that is, Google Sites and Google Page Creators follow different URL structures. This will be a great loss for all the current users as most probably they will experience a broken link to their web pages on undergoing transition.

We hope that Google will keep an eye on this problem and will definitely arrange something for its existing users to avoid broken links problems.
