Hello friends many of want to build a website. we also created it but there is problem of hosting of website there are many hosting service provider but they charge money but there is method to host your website on Google Drive A simple and efficient way to host websites can be Google Drive. With its free storage space of up to 15 GB, you can host a fairly large website without any cost.
Google Drive can be used to host basic websites or even complex JavaScript-based web apps. You may publish any kind of static content on your website including HTML pages, images, CSS, icons, audio, video etc.
Note: However, Google Drive does not support web resources that make use of server-side scripting languages like PHP.

- Share the URL that looks like "www.googledrive.com/host/..." from the preview window.
To create a public folder: For this, you simply need to go to folders, create a new folder, and rename it to whatever name you want. Following which, you select the check-box next to the New folder. Click the "Sharing settings" icon. Then click "Change" and make your folder "Public on the web"
