How it works

Convert HTML to a link in three steps

No hosting account, no FTP, no Git. The converter does the server part for you.

  1. Add your HTML

    Paste code into the box, or switch to Upload and drop an .html file, a ZIP of a site, or a whole folder.

  2. Choose the details

    Optionally type a custom address and a password. Leave both empty for a quick public link.

  3. Share the link

    Press Convert to link. Copy the URL, download its QR code, or open it to check how it looks on your phone.

Two meanings, one site

Which “HTML to link” do you need?

People use the phrase for two different jobs. This site does both.

Turn HTML into a shareable URL

You have a page — a portfolio, invitation, landing page, report or something an AI wrote — and you want others to open it with a link. That is the converter at the top of this page.

Turn a URL into an HTML link tag

You have a web address and need the <a href> code to put a clickable link in your own page, email signature or CMS. That is the free URL to HTML link generator.

FAQ

HTML to link converter — common questions

What is an HTML to link converter?
It is a tool that takes HTML — pasted code, an .html file or a zipped website — stores it on a web server and gives you back a public web address (URL). Anyone who opens that link sees your page rendered in their browser, exactly as it looks on your computer.
Is this HTML to link converter free?
Yes. Converting is free: up to 3 live links at a time, 2 MB per link, and each free link stays online for 24 hours. You sign in with Google once so your links are saved to your account. Permanent links are part of the Pro plans on htmltolink.dev.
Why do I need to sign in?
Signing in with Google ties every link to an owner, which keeps phishing pages off the network and lets you update or delete your links later from any device. We only receive your name, email address and profile picture from Google — never your password.
Will my CSS, JavaScript and images work?
Yes. Inline CSS and JavaScript work in pasted code. For pages with separate files (style.css, script.js, images), upload the whole folder or a ZIP so the relative paths still point at real files. External CDN links work as they do anywhere else.
What does the link look like?
Every link is its own subdomain such as https://my-page.htmltolink.dev/. Type your own name in “Custom address” or leave it empty for a random one. Links are served over HTTPS.
Can I change the page after sharing the link?
Yes. Open My links and choose Update: the new HTML replaces the old one at the same address, so the link you already sent keeps working and shows the new version.
How do I make a link permanent?
Upgrade on our sister site htmltolink.dev (from $5 a month). Sign in there with the same Google account; your newest live links become permanent and lose the small badge automatically. Upgrade before a free link expires — expired links are deleted and would have to be converted again.
Is there a link to the original HTML file I can download?
No — the link shows the rendered page, not a download. If you want people to download the file itself, send the file. If you want them to see it, send the link.
