How-to · ZIP hosting

Host a static website from a ZIP

A prototype, a coursework site or a landing-page mockup usually has more than one file. Upload them together as a ZIP and HTMLtoURL Pro publishes the whole site on its own isolated subdomain.

Upload a ZIP

In short

Put index.html at the top of the ZIP with its CSS, JavaScript and images.
The Free plan allows 20 MB total extracted per site, up to 2,000 files.
Paid plans raise the per-site allowance (50 MB, 100 MB or 200 MB).
ZIP sites are previewed after publishing, on their hosted URL.

Structure the ZIP

index.html at the root of the archive, not inside an extra folder.
Relative paths for assets, for example css/style.css and img/logo.png.
No server-side code — only static files run.

Size limits

Every file counts toward the extracted total. Free sites allow 20 MB; Starter, Pro and Business allow 50 MB, 100 MB and 200 MB per site. Free uploads also share a daily allowance across all free users.

Publishing from scripts or agents

The HTML to URL API accepts a single HTML document as JSON or a static-site ZIP as a multipart upload, and returns the live URL — see the API docs.

Frequently asked questions

Can I preview a ZIP before publishing?

No. ZIP files have no local preview; publishing uploads the package and opens the hosted site.

Will my site appear in Google?

No. Shared pages send noindex, nofollow and noarchive headers.

Can I use a custom subdomain?

Yes, random or custom subdomains are available.
