Cloudflare Pages vs Tiiny.host

Tiiny.host and Cloudflare Pages get compared by people who want the least friction possible, but they're not really the same category of product. Tiiny.host is a pure browser drag-and-drop uploader — no Git, no CLI — while Cloudflare Pages is a Git-based platform that also accepts a direct CLI push. Most of the real difference between them comes down to what each free tier actually gives you.

When to choose Cloudflare Pages

If you want a site that stays live indefinitely without paying anything, Cloudflare Pages' free tier is the clear winner — no expiration, no imposed banner, and no meaningful bandwidth ceiling. The cost is setup: you need a repo or the Wrangler CLI, not just a browser tab.

When to choose Tiiny.host

If you need to get a demo or client preview online in under a minute with zero setup, Tiiny.host's drag-and-drop flow is faster than connecting a repo. Just plan around the free tier's limits — a capped upload size and a link that expires after about a week rather than staying live.

If you just need to host static files

Flaash sits closer to Tiiny.host in spirit — browser-based drag-and-drop, no Git, no CLI — but without the same free-tier expiration or added banner; the free plan stays live rather than disappearing after a week. What Flaash doesn't have is custom domains, which Tiiny.host offers on its higher paid tiers. If a permanent free link with no branding matters more than a custom domain, that's the deciding factor between the two.

Frequently asked questions

Does Tiiny.host's free site really go offline after a week? Yes, the free tier is meant for temporary links rather than ongoing hosting — keeping a site live longer requires a paid plan.

Is Cloudflare Pages too complicated for a quick one-off upload? For a single throwaway link, yes, it's more setup than the job needs. It's built for ongoing projects with a repo behind them, not one-time drops.

Do any of Tiiny.host's paid plans remove the storage cap? No — even paid plans cap total storage around 100MB, so it stays best suited to small sites rather than large media-heavy projects.
