TEMPORARY HOSTING · NO SIGNUP

Put it online now.
Let it clean itself up later.

Free. No signup required. Served over HTTPS from 330+ cities.

Visitedstays online Idle45-day timer runs Donecleaned up

No fixed countdown, no manual delete. A visited link keeps living. A link nobody opens for 45 days removes itself — files, URL, everything.

The problem

Short-lived sites get long-term hosting.
That’s the mismatch.

Most hosting assumes you’re moving in forever: accounts, DNS, billing, dashboards. When you just need a URL for a week, the setup costs more than the site.

The usual workaroundWith a temporary link
Workaround

Sign up for “real” hosting

Account, email verification, DNS, maybe a card on file — then remembering to tear it all down when the demo is over. For a page that lives a week.

Instead

Upload with no account at all

Drop the file, get the link, send the link. When the page has done its job and visits stop, it removes itself after 45 idle days. Nothing to cancel.

Workaround

“It works on localhost”

Your laptop isn’t a URL. Tunnels drop when you close the lid, and asking a client to wait while you restart one is not a great first impression.

Instead

A real URL on a real edge network

Your page is served from the city closest to each visitor, over HTTPS, with DDoS protection — the same infrastructure permanent Fylo sites run on.

Workaround

Email a ZIP or screenshots

A ZIP makes the client open raw files. Screenshots can’t be clicked. Neither shows the hover states, the animations, or how it feels on their phone.

Instead

Send one link that just renders

They tap it on any device and see the actual page — interactions, fonts, responsive layout and all. Feedback gets faster when nobody has to unzip anything.

Where temporary wins

Built for sites with a shelf life.

Client demos

Show the draft on a live URL instead of a mockup. Iterate, re-upload, send the same link again.

Hackathon builds

Ship the submission link in the last hour without fighting a deploy pipeline. It’s live in seconds.

Course assignments

Submit a working URL for a web project. When the semester ends, the page quietly retires itself.

Event pages

A wedding, a meetup, a launch day. The page matters intensely for a month — then it doesn’t.

Testing & QA

Check a page on real devices, real networks, real HTTPS — not just your browser’s device emulator.

AI-generated pages

Got an HTML file from ChatGPT or Claude? Paste the code or drop the file and see it live immediately.

How it works

File to live link in three moves.

No build config, no CLI, no repo. The upload happens on the Fylo.Host homepage — the steps below are the whole process.

Drop your files

A single HTML file, pasted code, or a ZIP with your assets. Fylo minifies the HTML and CSS and warms the edge cache on the way in.

Name your link

Pick a subdomain on fylo.live so the URL says what the page is — or take a generated one if you’re in a hurry.

Share it, then forget it

The link is live in seconds and stays live while people open it. When visits stop for 45 days, cleanup is automatic.

Uploading a website to Fylo.Host and getting a live temporary link
How temporary actually works

Visits decide the lifespan.
Not a countdown clock.

Most “temporary” hosts delete your page on a fixed timer — sometimes mid-project. Fylo ties the lifespan to the only signal that matters: whether anyone still opens the link.

While it’s visited

The link stays live

Every visit resets the clock. A demo the client keeps opening, or an event page people keep checking, never disappears on you mid-conversation.

When visits stop

A 45-day grace period runs

Long enough that a holiday, a stalled project, or a slow-moving client won’t kill the page. One visit at any point starts the cycle over.

When it’s truly done

Cleanup is automatic

Files removed, URL released, nothing left behind. And if you change your mind: create a free account to keep 1 project permanently, or re-upload in seconds.

FAQ

Temporary website hosting, answered.

As long as people visit it. There is no fixed countdown — a link that keeps getting visits keeps living. A link that goes 45 days without a single visit is cleaned up automatically, so finished demos and old test pages remove themselves.
No. You can upload and get a live link without signing up for anything. If you later want to manage the site, see analytics, or keep it long term, a free account gives you 1 project and 10 MB of storage on fylo.live.
After 45 days without any visits, the files are removed and the link stops resolving. Nothing lingers. If you want the site back, just upload the files again — it takes seconds.
Yes. Create a free account to manage the project, or move to a paid plan to attach your own domain. The same upload keeps working — nothing needs to be rebuilt or migrated.
A single HTML file, pasted HTML code, or a ZIP containing your page and its assets — CSS, JS, images (PNG, JPG, GIF, SVG, WebP, AVIF) and fonts (WOFF, WOFF2, TTF).
No. Temporary uploads run on the same infrastructure as everything else on Fylo: served from a global edge network in 330+ cities, over HTTPS, with DDoS protection built in. Temporary describes the lifespan, not the quality.

The link takes seconds.
The cleanup takes zero.
