How to make a Google Form

3 min read

Summary

Making a Google Form is a simple way to collect and organize information. With customizable options and real-time response tracking, it supports a wide range of uses from surveys to sign-ups.

The easiest way to create a form is by going to Google Drive, clicking the +New button, choosing Google Forms from the list and selecting Blank Form.

Alternatively, go to forms.google.com. Once there, click on the blank form or choose a template from the gallery. After that, give your form a title and description so people understand its purpose right away.

Next, add questions by clicking the plus (+) icon. You can choose from various question types, such as multiple choice, short answer, checkboxes, or dropdowns. If needed, mark certain questions as required by toggling the switch at the bottom of each one.

To make your form more organized, insert sections or use the divider tool. You can also add images or videos to support your questions or make the form more engaging.

If you want to customize the look, click the palette icon to change the theme color, background, or font style. This helps match the form to your branding or the occasion.

When you’re ready to share the form, click Send in the top right corner. You can send it via email, copy a link to share, or embed it on a website. You can even create a QR code for quick access.

As responses come in, you can view them in the Responses tab or open them in Google Sheets for detailed analysis.
