How to host a static website for free
1. Build your site
Run your generator's build command (or write plain HTML). You get a folder of static files with an index.html.
2. ZIP the output
Compress the build folder — out/, dist/, public/ or _site/ — into one ZIP with index.html at the root.
3. Upload & publish
Drop the ZIP into the tool above. Your site is live instantly with a shareable HTTPS URL.

What counts as a static website?
A static website is built from pre-rendered files — HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images and fonts — with no server-side code or database behind it. The same files are sent to every visitor, which makes static sites fast, secure, and ideal for free hosting.
Portfolios, landing pages, documentation, marketing sites, and anything built with a static site generator are all static. If your project needs a server, logins, or a database (a dynamic app), you'll want a different host — but if it's just files, you're in the right place. Just need to host a single HTML file? That works here too.
Frequently asked questions
What is static website hosting?
A static website is made of pre-built files — HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and images — with no server-side code or database. Static hosting serves those files directly to visitors. Linkyhost hosts them free with automatic HTTPS and a global CDN.
How do I host a static website for free?
Build or export your site, ZIP the output folder (for example Next.js out/, Hugo public/, or a Vite dist/), and upload it to Linkyhost. You get an instant HTTPS URL. A free account gets you started — no credit card.
Can I host a Next.js, React, or Vue build?
Yes. Run your production build/export, then upload the static output folder (out/, dist/, or build/) as a ZIP. As long as it's static files with an index.html at the root, it works. Server-rendered (SSR) apps that need a Node backend are not supported — export to static first.
How do I deploy a Hugo or Jekyll site for free?
Run hugo (output goes to public/) or jekyll build (output goes to _site/), ZIP that folder, and upload it. Your site is live with HTTPS in seconds.
Do I need a CLI, Git, or a build pipeline?
No. Unlike Netlify, Vercel, or GitHub Pages, there's no CLI to install, no Git push, and no build configuration. You build locally (or write plain HTML) and drag the files in.
Is static website hosting really free?
Yes. Free tier: 1 site, 10MB. Pro ($12/mo or $60/yr): unlimited sites, 100MB each, custom domains, and no branding. No credit card required to start.
Can I use my own custom domain?
Every site gets a free linkyhost.com subdomain with HTTPS. Connect your own domain (e.g. yoursite.com) on the Pro plan.
What's the difference between static and dynamic hosting?
Static hosting serves pre-built files and is fast, secure, and cheap to run. Dynamic hosting runs server-side code and a database for things like logins or user-generated content. Linkyhost is built for static sites — if your project is just HTML/CSS/JS, it's a perfect fit.
