I'm totally confused (once again something on HN makes me feel like an idiot). Doesn't Dropbox already give everyone free hosting? Dropbox has been hosting my website, on their dime, for quite a while already (http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/41075/brentnoorda/index.html http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/41075/brentnoorda/index.h...). So, um... What?
- Kudos 13y agoPresumably this service serves the site at the root of your own domain, rather than on an untypeable Dropbox URL.
- corobo 13y agoJust a quick heads up using Dropbox as web hosting - Google and the rest won't ever index your site as the domain has a deny-all robots.txt http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/robots.txt http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/robots.txt

- brent_noorda 13y agoI hadn't thought about the indexing problem. So I moved all my pages to github.io, which google does index. Thanks.
