How it works
-
Web Stories are a visual medium. So when it comes to creating one, first think about what people will want to see and hear.
-
Using the tool of your choice, edit and customize your Story just how you like it.
-
Once you’re happy with your Story, you publish it to your own site, which generates a shareable link just like a blog post.
-
Your Story can then be surfaced in relevant users’ Google surfaces, like Search and Discover.
