Hosting static websites

By | January 31, 2020

Tried the following three options

1. Google drive: although several articles gave step by step instructions, one article has mentioned that Google has revoked support for static websites. I tried and found that, Although it supports sharing a public link – only the source code is visible. And getting the link through the preview option is not working

2. GitHub: this option could be explored more. I used, ‘now’ ( https://zeit.co/github) to do some kind of source code integration, but it ended up showing some errors.

3. Dropbox : this was the easiest. Log into your Dropbox account, using drop pages website. https://my.droppages.com and create your own domain name there

Now open the drop box app and upload the files to the folder ‘Apps/My.DropPages/justin.droppages.com/Templates’

Finally use that custom domain name, that is, Justin.droppages.com/index.html, to access the website
