How to host an HTML file online for free

You have an .html file and you want a real URL to send someone — no build tools, no hosting account, no wait. Here's the fastest way, in about a minute and with no signup.

Host your HTML file now

The fast way (no signup)

  1. Open htmldrop.app. Nothing to install or sign up for.
  2. Drag your .html file onto the drop zone (or click to pick it). Anonymous files can be up to 2 MB.
  3. Copy the slug.htmldrop.app URL it hands back. That's your live page — send it anywhere. The anonymous link stays up for 7 days.

That's the whole thing: a file in, a URL out. No repository, no build step, no framework.

Keep it around

Anonymous drops expire after 7 days. To keep a page permanently, create a free account — it raises the limit to 10 MB per file and keeps your drops as long as you log in. Paid plans from $3/mo add permanent drops that never expire, more storage, and version history so you can roll back to any earlier upload.

FAQ

Can I host an HTML file online for free?

Yes. htmldrop hosts a single HTML file for free with no signup — drag it onto htmldrop.app and the URL is live in seconds (up to 2 MB, live 7 days). A free account keeps it longer and raises the limit to 10 MB.

How do I keep the page online permanently?

Create a free account and your drops stick around instead of expiring. Paid plans from $3/mo give permanent drops, more storage, password protection, and custom domains.

Do I need to know how to code or use the command line?

No. It's drag-and-drop in the browser. If you already have an HTML file, you're done in three steps — no terminal, no Git, no build.
