  1. Introduction
    In our organization, a decision has been made to restrict users from creating SharePoint sites. Consequently, the responsibility of site creation now lies with the administrators. This guide will walk you through the process of creating different types of SharePoint sites, ensuring that you understand the necessary steps and configurations.
  2. Accessing the Admin Center
    To begin creating a SharePoint site, navigate to the Admin Center. Here are the steps to follow: 1. Go to the Admin Center. 2. Click on 'Sites' and then select 'Active Sites'. In this section, you will find the 'Create' button, which allows you to initiate the creation of various types of sites.
  3. Types of SharePoint Sites
    You can create the following types of SharePoint sites: - **Team Site**: This site is linked to a Microsoft 365 group and includes shared resources such as an Outlook inbox, calendar, OneNote notebook, and Planner. - **Communication Site**: This site is designed for broadcasting information to a wider audience and does not link to a Microsoft 365 group. Note: If you choose to create a Team Site, be aware that it will not create a shared Outlook inbox, calendar, OneNote notebook, or Planner.
  4. Creating a Communication Site
    For this example, we will create a Communication Site. Follow these steps: 1. Click on the 'Create' button. 2. Select 'Communication Site'. 3. Choose a template; for this example, we will use the 'Print Central' template. 4. Name your site (e.g., 'Project Training'). 5. Define the owner of the site (e.g., Teven Watson). 6. Select the language for the site. Note that this cannot be changed later. 7. Set the time zone for the site. Once you have filled in all the necessary information, click 'Create' and wait for SharePoint to set up your site.
  5. Post-Creation Management
    After the site has been created, you can locate it using the search bar. From there, you can manage the site by: - Changing memberships - Defining owners, members, and visitors This ensures that the right individuals have access to the site and its resources.
  6. Conclusion
    Creating SharePoint sites is a crucial task for administrators, especially with the new restrictions in place. By following the outlined steps, you can effectively create and manage SharePoint sites that meet the needs of your organization. Remember to pay attention to the details during the setup process, as they can significantly impact the site's functionality and user experience.
