Advantage of Google Drive over Free Hosting site

  1. 15GB of free space which is huge to host your files.
  2. 24*7 Uptime.
  3. Free from ads.
  4. Highly secured.
  5. Integrate with other Google drive component such as Google Form.
  6. Manage file revisions.
  7. Easy to manage.

To host your files Google Drive is a great alternative but there are some limitations.Firstly, You can upload and publish anything that runs in client ,that means, in your case the browser but we can’t host anything that require server side technology.  You can’t host server side scripting languages like PHP, MySQL.

Secondly, The final generated URL is too long to remember www.googledrive.com/host/…..

Also, You can’t change the default Google Drive URL to your custom domain name URL.

Follow the steps below to host your files on Google Drive.

Step 1. Create a new folder and share it as “Public on the Web”.

  4. Interesting guide. I was completely unaware that we can also host a website on Google Drive. I own a website that I am hosting with Godaddy Economy Plan. I have bought the plan using the Godaddy $1 Hosting Coupon and the plan cost me just $12 yearly with a free domain. Hosting a site on Google drive also sounds interesting.
