Frequently asked questions

Can I publish without an account?

No. Every site belongs to an account so its link stays yours and abuse can be traced. Signing up takes an email address.

Do I need a credit card?

No. The free plan needs an email address and nothing else, and it never expires.

What does “static” mean?

Files the browser downloads and runs as they are: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images, fonts. JavaScript in the page can still call other services' APIs, but nothing runs on MicroHost's side.

Where are sites hosted?

Each site is its own project on Vercel’s global network, served over HTTPS.

Can I use my own domain?

Yes, on the paid plan. You add the domain in MicroHost and point its DNS records at it.

What happens if I stop paying?

You go back to the free plan. Your most recently published site stays live; the others show a “paused” page until you subscribe again, and nothing is deleted. Custom domains are disconnected and reconnect when you resubscribe. The free plan keeps 1 site live.

How do I delete a site or my account?

Open the site and choose Delete; its link name is held for you for 30 days. To delete everything, use the Danger zone on your Account page.

How do I report a site?

Use the report form, linked at the bottom of every page and from the bar on free sites. No account needed.

Is my HTML stored in git or shown to anyone?

No. Your files go to your site’s hosting and, for downloads and rollbacks, to private storage. They are never in a public repository.

Can MicroHost run a backend or a database?

No. Uploads with API routes, server code or PHP are refused with a prompt to ask Claude for a static version instead.
