  Hi there,

  seems you need a WordPress.org open source software for a website to be hosted on Gsuite Hosting?
  If yes, then you are in a wrong forum, here we deal with WordPress.com hosted websites only.
  In case necessary here you can read more about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  In your case:
  first please check this one, I find it useful:
  https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-en-google-suite/
  Then you can ask Google for instructions for installing WordPress https://support.google.com/a/answer/1047213?hl=en.
  You can install WordPress software on the server but am not sure if Gsuite allows that.

  Alternatively, as long as you have already created an account on WordPress.com, you can host a WordPress website here, on WordPress.com. It is very simple to start a website and no need to manage domains, WordPress installations and so on. And you can create a website for free or have a paid plan if necessary.
  You can start here: https://wordpress.com/website-builder-website/

  P.S. domain transferring from G Suite to WordPress.com is easy. Or you can map a domain to your new WordPress.com website.
  With a paid plan, first year one transferred domain is free of charge. And one Domain Mapping subscription is always free with any paid plan.
  More info about domains on WordPress.com is here: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-pricing-and-available-tlds/

  Please feel free to ask if any!
