## Guides
- [How to convert HTML to a link](https://www.htmltolinkconverter.com/guides/how-to-convert-html-to-link/): The quickest way to convert HTML to a link is an online HTML to link converter: paste the code or upload the file, and it returns an https URL in seconds. For a permanent free link with more setup, use GitHub Pages; for a whole site with a build step, use Netlify or Cloudflare Pages.
- [Why .html attachments fail — and what to send instead](https://www.htmltolinkconverter.com/guides/why-html-attachments-fail/): HTML attachments often fail because mail filters treat them as a phishing risk, phones open them in viewers that show code or strip scripts, and any separate CSS or image files are missing. Sending a link to the hosted page avoids all three problems.
- [How to make an HTML link permanent](https://www.htmltolinkconverter.com/guides/make-html-link-permanent/): Free links from this converter stay online for 24 hours. To make them permanent, open htmltolink.dev/pricing, sign in with the same Google account and choose a plan (from $5/month). Your newest live links switch to permanent automatically and keep their addresses.
- [Fix broken images and CSS after converting HTML to a link](https://www.htmltolinkconverter.com/guides/fix-broken-images-after-converting/): Broken images and missing styles after converting are caused by file paths that point to files you did not upload, or to locations on your own computer. Upload the whole folder or a ZIP, and use relative paths like images/photo.jpg instead of C:\ or file:// paths.
- [Preview an HTML email template as a link](https://www.htmltolinkconverter.com/guides/preview-html-email-as-link/): To preview an HTML email as a link, convert the template's HTML to a link and share it for review. Reviewers see the design in their browser; for final checks, still send test emails, because mail clients render HTML differently from browsers.
- [Choosing a custom address for your HTML link](https://www.htmltolinkconverter.com/guides/choose-custom-link-address/): A custom address is the name before .htmltolink.dev in your link. It must be 3–40 characters of lowercase letters, numbers and single hyphens, not start or end with a hyphen, and be unused. Short, readable names get more clicks than random ones.
- [Update your HTML page without changing the link](https://www.htmltolinkconverter.com/guides/update-html-without-changing-link/): Open My links, choose Update on the link, paste the new HTML or drop the new files, and press Update this link. The address, password and expiry stay the same; everyone with the link sees the new content.
- [Is it safe to open an HTML link someone sent you?](https://www.htmltolinkconverter.com/guides/is-it-safe-to-open-html-links/): Opening a hosted HTML page is generally as safe as visiting any website: it runs in your browser's sandbox and cannot read your files. The real risk is being tricked into typing passwords or payment details. Never enter credentials on a page someone sent you as a shared link.
- [The HTML link tag: a practical reference](https://www.htmltolinkconverter.com/guides/html-anchor-tag-reference/): An HTML link is <a href="URL">text</a>. href sets the destination (web URL, relative path, #section, mailto:, tel:); target="_blank" opens a new tab; rel describes the relationship (noopener, nofollow, sponsored, ugc); download makes the browser save the file.
- [Submitting HTML assignments as links](https://www.htmltolinkconverter.com/guides/html-assignments-as-links/): Students convert their project folder (ZIP) to a link and paste the link into the assignment. Teachers open it on any device, with no unzipping. Use a clear address like class-name-student and keep the original files as a backup.
- [How to make a single-file HTML page](https://www.htmltolinkconverter.com/guides/single-file-html/): Put CSS inside a <style> tag, JavaScript inside a <script> tag, and embed small images as data URIs or link them by full https URL. The result is one .html file that works anywhere and converts to a link in a single paste.
- [HTML link vs HTML file: what the recipient gets](https://www.htmltolinkconverter.com/guides/html-link-vs-file/): A link opens your rendered page in the recipient's browser, always up to date, on any device. A file gives them a copy they must download and open themselves, which often fails on phones and in email filters but lets them keep and edit the code.
