Use previews for review
Preview links help teammates, clients, product managers, and QA open the same page without running local files or cloning a repository.
HTML publishing guide
What is an HTML preview link?
An HTML preview link is a temporary or review-focused URL for opening a static HTML page in a browser. It is useful when the page needs to be clicked, reviewed, or approved before it becomes a production site.
Steps
2
Keep drafts out of production
A preview URL lets you review layout, copy, and interactions before deciding whether a page deserves a permanent deployment.

Publish the exact static output
Upload the HTML or ZIP project so reviewers see the same files you are evaluating locally.
Practical tips
- Use preview links for drafts, not canonical public pages.
- Prefer a ZIP when assets are split across multiple files.
- Send one link instead of a folder of files.
- Check forms and external links before sharing.
Turn the HTML into a link
HTMLShare publishes static HTML files and ZIP projects as browser preview links, so reviewers can open the page without downloading files or running a local server.
