Publishing a free HTML web page: a guide for beginners who want results

Introduction

Publishing an HTML web page seems easy... until you start dealing with servers, FTPs, and domain names that sound more like Harry Potter spells. Many people look for free options, either because of a limited budget or because they are starting a personal or freelance project. But even "free" can get expensive if you don't know what you're doing.

This is where this article comes in: we'll show you how to publish a free HTML web page, without losing your patience in the process. And if you then decide you want something more professional, with real support and a design that doesn't look like it's from 2005, ClickPanda has just what you need.

 Prepare your HTML file

Make sure you have your file index.html and, if applicable, folders with images, style sheets (CSS) and scripts. Keep everything organized to avoid mistakes.

Use a free hosting

  • GitHub PagesIdeal for programmers, with version control and great stability.

  • NetlifySuper intuitive, it allows you to publish by dragging and dropping your folder.

  • Vercel: Very fast and elegant, perfect if you plan to scale in the future.

  • Google Drive (with tricks)Possible, but not recommended. More headaches than benefits.

Upload your page

Each platform has its own method:

  • At GitHub PagesIf you do not have a repository, just upload your repository and activate the option from the configuration.

  • At NetlifyJust drag and drop the folder onto the dashboard.

  • At VercelYou follow a step-by-step wizard from your Git account.

Get a free domain (optional)

 

You can use a subdomain like yoursite.netlify.appor if you're feeling lucky, explore free options such as Freenomalthough the quality leaves something to be desired.

Test and optimize

 

To publish a free HTML website make sure that everything loads well, is responsive and that the site also works on mobile devices.

But what happens when free is no longer enough?

Yes, publishing for free is useful, but very limited. Common problems:

  • Unwanted advertising.

  • Unprofessional domain.

  • Zero technical support if something goes wrong.
