💬 Frequently Asked Questions
Is Cloudsion really free?
Yes! The free tier uses GitHub Pages hosting, which is completely free. You can deploy unlimited sites.
What's the difference between Free and Pro?
Free: Uses GitHub Pages (username.github.io/site-name)
Pro ($9/mo): Custom domains, analytics, faster CDN, no badge
Can I use my own domain?
Yes! On the free tier, configure it in GitHub repo settings. Pro tier handles it automatically.
What kind of websites can I deploy?
Static websites only: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images. No server-side code (PHP, Python backends).
Is my GitHub token safe?
Yes! It's stored only in your browser's localStorage, never sent to our servers. You can revoke it anytime from GitHub settings.
How do I update my deployed site?
Just deploy again with the same site name. We'll update the existing repo.
My site isn't loading after deploy?
Wait 1-2 minutes for GitHub Pages to build. Make sure you have an index.html file in your folder.
