Google Sites Update: Logo now Maps to Custom Domain
The Old Problem
Imagine you had a Google Sites mapped to a custom domain, like www.kirksvillewebdesign.com. If you used Google Sites custom logo upload into the header, it would always link to your long sites.google.com/a/domainname.com/sitetitle URL. A total bummer!
The Update & Solution
If you Google Sites is mapped and someone clicks on your header logo, you simply go back to the base custom domain URL! No more confusion about your Site's location. And this will help search engines be less confused now with the dread duplicate content.

What's this prove?
Google still supports Google Sites, albeit delayed.
