Tiiny Host alternatives with more room for free

The best Tiiny Host alternative is ship.page: it takes an HTML file of up to 10 MB, more than three times Tiiny's 3 MB free cap, for $0 with no account, and ranks first at 79/100 against Tiiny Host's 36/100. Netlify Drop (73/100) also needs no account and publishes no size cap, but deletes an unclaimed upload within 1 hour; Cloudflare Pages (48/100) gives you 25 MiB per file with no expiry on a free account. Tiiny's cheapest upgrade, Tiny, is $9 a month for 25 MB. On ship.page, an anonymous link lasts 7 days, a claimed one 30 days from the upload date, and Pro at $4 a month removes the expiry.

ship.page HTML hosting upload page, captured November 15, 2026

ship.page gives you more room without asking you to make an account. You can drop an HTML file up to 10 MB into the browser, upload a ZIP up to 25 MB and 100 files, or drop a whole folder. Your page gets its own random ship.place subdomain. Tiiny's free plan stops at 3 MB per project, and only after you've made an account.

The catch is time. Without an account, the link lasts 7 days. You can claim it into a free account for 30 days, but those days count from the upload date, not the day you claim it. Want to leave it up without an expiry? Pro costs $4 a month.

And your own domain is a separate step: that needs Team at $19 a month. Tiiny's custom domains start on Solo at $18 a month. For a page you're happy to leave on a ship.place address, though, you don't need the domain plan.

Netlify Drop at 73/100: no account and no published size cap

Netlify Drop HTML hosting upload page, captured November 15, 2026

Netlify Drop takes a folder, a ZIP or a single HTML file in the browser, with no account needed to publish. Netlify doesn't publish a total size cap for Drop. That's not a promise of unlimited space, but there's no published ceiling to compare here.

Watch the deadline. Netlify deletes an unclaimed Drop deploy within 1 hour, and keeping it means claiming it with a free Netlify account. Once you've claimed the site, it has no expiry.

Cloudflare Pages at 48/100: a free account instead of a paid Tiiny plan

Cloudflare Pages HTML hosting page, captured November 15, 2026

You'll pay $0 for Cloudflare Pages, though a link won't exist until you have a Cloudflare account and have given the project a name. No account-free route here.

The dashboard takes a ZIP or a folder with up to 1,000 files, each up to 25 MiB, and if you use Cloudflare's Wrangler command line instead, you can upload up to 20,000 files.

Once it's published, the project stays until you delete it. There's no expiry to extend, and Cloudflare lists no bandwidth cap for Pages. If you're willing to make an account, this is a free option for keeping the page up.

What Tiiny Host's free plan actually gives you

Tiiny Host lets you upload a file or ZIP in the browser, but you have to create an account first. Its free plan gives you 1 live project, with 3 MB per project, or 0.5 MB for PDFs. You get 3 uploads a day. The monthly limits are 5,000 visits and 5 GB of bandwidth.

There's no end date on a free link, provided you log in at least once every 3 months. That's the ongoing requirement. And if your content isn't allowed on the free plan, you only get a preview link, which comes down after an hour.

Need more upload room? Tiny costs $9 a month or $60 a year and raises the per-project allowance to 25 MB. The custom-domain step is the Solo plan mentioned above.

We gave Tiiny Host 36/100 in the Index. That includes 8 points for signup, since you can make the account in the browser, and 0 for lifetime: we can't get a link without an account. Browser upload earns 5 points because it comes after account creation. The upload allowance earns 3 points for being under 10 MB, while the $0 cost earns the full 20 for cost.

We scored Tiiny Host but didn't time it. It requires an account before the first link.

Surge and GitHub Pages as Tiiny replacements

Surge scored 47/100. It's free, with 450 MB and 10,100 files per project, but there's no browser upload: you install its command-line tool, which needs Node.js 18 or newer, then sign up in the terminal with an email and password. There's an email check to finish, too. For a new Surge account, service on surge.sh domains stops after 90 minutes and won't resume until you verify your email.

GitHub Pages scored 44/100 and is also free. You need a GitHub account and a repository, then you turn Pages on in the repository settings. It allows 1 GB per site, with soft limits of 100 GB bandwidth a month and 10 builds an hour. Check the use restrictions before choosing it: GitHub doesn't allow Pages for an online business, e-commerce or commercial SaaS. We scored both Surge and GitHub Pages, but didn't time them.
