Creating a SharePoint communication site

- [Instructor] A SharePoint communication site is typically used to broadcast content from a small group of contributors out to a large audience within your organization. To create a SharePoint communication site, start from the SharePoint homepage and then select Create site. In the Create a site menu, select Communication site. Next, you have two areas that you can select a template from, those provided by Microsoft and those that may be provided by your organization. Let's go to From Microsoft and select a template. Details about this template, including a thumbnail preview, are included. Select Use template, and then give the site a name. If the site name is available, it will tell you here. If not, suggestions may be provided. Down here at the bottom, you'll notice that there's a slight modification for the site address. You, of course, can modify this as needed. You can also include an optional site description. Once ready, select Next. Choose a language for this site. Then select Create site. A notification appears that it is applying the template to the site. The new site has been created and is in view. It's ready for a build-out with content in pages and more.
