Free HTML hosting
Free HTML hosting, as a tracked link.
Free · no signup · live for 7 days. Sign up free to keep it (2 pages) and update it on the same link. Solo adds a password, full analytics and your own domain. Public to anyone with the link and noindex. Phishing and pages built to collect other people’s passwords or card details are taken down.
How it works
From HTML file to live link in three steps
Upload your HTML file
Drop an .html file on the publish box, or click to choose one. No Git, no build step, no config file. Want to paste markup and preview it first? The HTML to URL tool does that.
Get the link right away
The page publishes the moment the upload finishes and the box shows its URL. Want to check the render first? Open the file in the free HTML viewer before you drop it here.
Sign up free to keep it
Without an account the page stays live for 7 days. Sign up free to keep it as one of your 2 free pages, then update the HTML anytime on the same link.
Upload HTML
Upload HTML: put an HTML file online, no server needed
Grab your .html file
Export it from your editor, save it from your Claude or ChatGPT chat, or use any HTML file on your machine. A self-contained file (inline CSS, scripts, images as data URLs) works best.
Drag and drop it on the publish box
Drop the file on the publish box above, or click to browse and select it. No server to rent, no FTP, no Git, no build step. The upload is the deploy.
Send the link instead of the file
The page is live the moment the upload finishes: 7 days without an account, for as long as you want once you sign up free and claim it. Need to share an HTML file with a client or teammate? Send the link: it opens in any browser, and a free account emails you the first time it is opened.
Analytics
See whether it was opened
A free host gives you a URL and goes quiet. A Pagelive link reports back, so when you send a proposal, a demo, or a one-pager, you know whether it was seen. The signals below are on Solo and Team.
Free pages show a live view count and email you the first time a page is opened. The full set (unique viewers, dwell time, referrers, by-day and country) comes with Solo. Either way every visit is recorded from day one, so upgrading later fills in the history.

The difference
Not a public web page
Pagelive is built the other way around: every page is noindex by default (we tell Google not to list it) and it’s served separately from your account and billing, so a published page can’t reach your private data.
A typical free host
- → Public web page by default
- → Google can index it and anyone can find it in search
- → No password gate, no view analytics
A Pagelive link
- ✓ Noindex by default, won’t show up on Google
- ✓ Served from an isolated content plane
- ✓ View count on Free · password and full analytics on Solo

When it goes to a client
Password-protect it and use your own domain
Password protection
Gate confidential pages behind a password, stored as a salted hash and checked on our server before the page is served.
SoloYour own domain
Serve pages from proposals.yourstudio.com instead of a generic host URL. Up to 5 custom domains on Solo, 25 on Team.
SoloCustom slugs
On your connected domain, pick the path yourself (/acme-proposal instead of a random string) so the link reads like it came from you.
Free HTML hosting FAQ
Yes, really. You can publish right here on this page with no signup, and the page stays live for 7 days unless you claim it with a free account. A free account keeps 2 public pages live, each with its own view count. The full analytics (unique viewers, dwell time, referrers, by-day and country) come with Solo ($15/mo), along with passwords and custom domains with your own slugs.
You don’t need a server, an FTP client, or a hosting account. Drag the .html file onto the Pagelive publish box and it’s uploaded and served from a Pagelive URL. Inline CSS, JavaScript, and embedded images in the file all work as-is.
Not as a working page. Google Drive stopped serving HTML files as web pages years ago, so a shared .html file there downloads or shows as code. Google Sites only accepts HTML as an embedded snippet inside its own layout. To share the page as it was built, upload it here and send the link.
Yes. Pages are public to anyone with the link and noindex. Phishing and pages built to collect other people’s passwords or card details are taken down. Pagelive is for pages you send to people (proposals, reports, demos, one-pagers), not for login forms or checkout pages.
Yes. Pages are unlisted and noindex by default, so they won’t show up in search, and in practice only people you send the link to will open them. Anyone who has the link can, though. For confidential pages, Solo adds a password gate (the password is stored as a salted hash, never in plain text), and you’ll see the page’s view count either way.
No. Pagelive pages are noindex by default. We tell search engines not to list them, and they serve from an isolated content plane, walled off from your dashboard and billing. You can opt a page into indexing if you ever want that.
Yes, with Solo. Connect a domain you own (proposals.yourstudio.com) and publish pages to it by slug, up to 5 domains on Solo, 25 per workspace on Team.
A typical free host publishes your page as a public web page that search engines can index by default. Fine for a throwaway demo, not for client work. Pagelive publishes the same HTML as an unlisted, tracked link: noindex by default with a view count on every plan, plus passwords and full viewer analytics on Solo and Team.
Yes. A free account keeps 2 public pages live at once, each on its own link with its view count. Unlimited pages come with Solo.
Yes, once the page is in your account (sign up free to claim one you published here). Replace the HTML anytime and the link stays exactly the same. No re-sending a new URL. Every update saves a version, and on Solo you can restore an earlier one.
