portfolio websites. Just follow the methods. Now when we go to
our Google Sites, you are going to be editing
some of these contents. Now. We have three pages
wants to work with. So next we go over to
chart GTP because we want to generate our products or provide description, sorry. So n time today, brahms bar writes me a profile description for
a book cover designer. So we enter the command now
sometimes when we do that, we will see an error occurs. So what we have to do is
we refresh our browser. So we refresh our browser. Now. We now start a fresh
and NTID prompts. Writes me a profile description for our book cover designer will not enter a command. Now automatically charts. Gpt will start generating
our profile description. As you can see, it
reads this way. As a book cover designer, I am passionate about bringing stories to life through visuals. So go through it. As soon as it's done, generating the content, you
can click on stop generating. If you're okay with the lens, we can allow it to
generate to its maximum. So that is it. So now we go back to, go back to our Google Sites. We give our site a name. Alexa. John will be the name of the owner of this
portfolio website. So we enter our introduction, a brief introduction
on this homepage. Hi, I'm Alex, a book cover
designer from Canada. So that's what we are going

video will just be entrained. Our page, one of the pages
we have in our websites. So that is why we entered this speech about Yukon in such. Now our call to action
button has been created. So we delete this block.
We don't want it. We want our call
to action button immediately after
our first image, which we want to drag your
particularly conductor, but you want to
change the position, you drag it from the center. Now, we don't need this to
be deleting this block. We're also be deleting this one. You don't want to do
this would be for texts. We don't want it.
We deleted too. So now we are left with a
divider or that are divider. Images will be adding images
to this content block. So delete this space. Now. The LinkedIn it, because that's not a content block wants to use once you use a
single image with text. So that is why we selected
these content blocks. So as you can see, we don't
need this, the LinkedIn. You can click on Upload
that the phi one to use, open the file and automatically
fight comes there. So that is the
binary wants to use. That is the banana we want to use as a book cover designer. So next thing we'll do is
