Google pages are personal Web pages provided by Google. Anyone who has a Gmail account or a Google account has access to their own, free personal Google page. Adding music to your Google page adds a little entertainment.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Log in and access your Google page. If you don't have a Google account, sign up for one for free.

  2. Step 2

    Click on the "Edit Page Code" button. This is the HTML code for your Google page. This is the area where you add music to your page.

  3. Step 3

    Select the music you want to add to your Google page. Find the music online so you can use their source code on your website for direct music links. Some sites to search for music are MySpace, Imeen and Yahoo Music (see Resources below). The source code is listed on the sites in a box marked "Source Code."

  4. Step 4

    Copy and paste the embedded music code from the source website to your Google page (in the Edit Page Code window from step 2). There are three basic types of embedded code. If the embedded code says "Auto start = true" then the song plays when the page opens. The next type is a music player that begins when you press "Start." The third type is a multiple-song player that lists various songs and plays them in order when you press the "Start" or "Play" button.

  5. Step 5

    Click "Save" to save the music to your Google website. Click "Preview" or "View" to test the music player.

Tips & Warnings
  • Videos from websites such as YouTube also provide source code so that they can be played on other pages. Copy and paste the source code from the video site onto your Google Web page to add video as well as music.
