Announcing Pages Drop: Drag, Drop & Deploy - Free Static Website Hosting

Today, we are excited to announce the launch of Pages Drop—the simplest way to achieve free static website hosting. Without the need for server maintenance or complex configurations, users can quickly deploy websites while enjoying enterprise-grade performance and security protection.

What is Pages Drop?

Pages Drop is a service designed to completely simplify static website hosting. We believe that deploying a website should be as simple as drag and drop—no technical barriers, no complex setup, just pure simplicity.

But first, let's clarify what we mean by static website hosting. This refers to hosting websites made of static files like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images, and videos—without requiring backend databases or server-side programs. This covers most websites people want to create: personal portfolios, company landing pages, documentation sites, and project showcases.

The challenge has always been that even "simple" hosting solutions often involve server management, complex configurations, or steep learning curves. Pages Drop eliminates these barriers with three core benefits:

• Completely free: No credit card required, no hidden costs for basic static website hosting.
• Zero maintenance: No servers to manage, no operating systems to update, no runtime environments to configure.
• Instant deployment: Upload your files and your website goes live immediately. No command-line tools or configuration files to learn.

How to Use Pages Drop?

Getting your website live with Pages Drop is straightforward. Here's the complete process:

1. Prepare Your Files: Gather all your website content in one folder on your computer. This includes HTML files, CSS, JavaScript, images, videos, and any other static resources. Pages Drop supports all common file types.
2. Upload via Drag & Drop: Head to Pages Drop and locate the upload area. Simply drag your folder from your computer and drop it onto the platform. No complex upload wizards or file-by-file selection needed.
3. Set Your Web Address (Optional): Choose your own custom subdomain (like yourproject.edgeone.app). If you skip this step, we'll automatically generate a unique URL for you. You can always upgrade to your own domain (like www.yourbusiness.com) later.
4. Go Live: That's it! The system handles file processing, CDN distribution, security certificates, and deployment automatically. Your website will be live and accessible worldwide within seconds.

The entire process takes just a few minutes, and there's nothing else to configure. Upload your files and your site is ready to share with the world.

Key Features of Pages Drop

Pages Drop provides professional hosting features at no cost:

• Global Performance: Your website runs on Tencent Cloud's global CDN, delivering fast loading times to visitors worldwide. Content is automatically served from the nearest server location.
