HTML to Link Converter FAQ

Straight answers about converting HTML to links, link lifetimes, privacy and Pro.

Converting

How do I convert HTML to a link?
Paste your HTML into the converter on the home page (or upload a file, ZIP or folder), press Convert to link, and sign in with Google the first time. You get an https link and a QR code.
What can I upload?
HTML code, .html/.htm files, .zip archives and whole folders — with CSS, JavaScript, images, fonts, JSON, audio and video inside. Up to 1,000 files per link. Executable files such as .exe, .apk and .dmg are not accepted.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. If you have an HTML file or code from someone (or from an AI), you can convert it without changing anything.
Does it support PHP, Python or Node.js?
No. Links serve static files that run in the browser. Server-side code is not executed.
Can I convert a Word document or PDF to a link?
Not directly — this converter is for HTML. Save the document as a web page (HTML) first, or share the PDF through a file host.

Links

What address will my link have?
https://your-name.htmltolink.dev/ — you choose the name, or leave it empty for a random one.
How long do free links last?
24 hours from conversion. Permanent links need a Pro plan on htmltolink.dev.
Can I use my own domain?
Not at the moment. Links use subdomains of htmltolink.dev.
Can I edit a page after sharing?
Yes — Update in My links replaces the content at the same address.
Can I password protect a link?
Yes, free. The password is checked on the server before any content is sent.
Why is there a badge on my page?
Free pages show a small “Made with HTMLtoLink” badge with a Report link; visitors can close it. Paid plans remove it.
Will Google index my page?
Possibly, if it is linked from elsewhere. Add <meta name="robots" content="noindex"> to your HTML to keep it out of search results, or use a password.

Account & Pro

Why do I sign in with Google?
To tie each link to an owner (which keeps abuse down) and to let you manage your links from any device. We receive your name, email and profile picture only.
Is my account shared with htmltolink.dev?
Yes. Both sites use the same sign-in and the same backend, so the same Google account sees the same links on both.
How do I upgrade?
Use the plan buttons on the Free vs Pro page. They open htmltolink.dev, where you sign in with the same account and pay with Lemon Squeezy.
Do you sell or read my HTML?
No. Your files are stored to serve your link and deleted when the link expires or you delete it.
