Your Blog at yourname.textpad.cloud
Pick a username and your public posts live at a real subdomain - not a path on a shared site, not a clunky URL with random characters. Free, no setup, no theme picker.
Your blog at your subdomain
Pick a username and your public posts live at yourname.textpad.cloud. Every public document also lands on a clean archive page that lists everything you've written, no theme picker, no setup.
A real subdomain, not a path on a shared site
Auto-generated archive index of all your public posts
Or bring your own domain, see below
Bring your own domain
Already own yourdomain.com? Connect it in one click and your blog serves at your own address, fully white-label. No Textpad logo, no header, no footer, no sign-in prompt. Just your archive and your writing.
Apex (yourdomain.com) and subdomains (www, blog…) supported
SSL certificate auto-issued and renewed for you
Visitors never see Textpad, your domain, your brand
A real URL, not a slug
Other free blog tools give you something like shared-site.com/u/yourname. Textpad gives you yourname.textpad.cloud - a subdomain that looks like it's yours, because it is.
A clean archive, automatically
Every public post you write shows up on your archive page, sorted by date, with thumbnails pulled from your content. No widgets to drag, no homepage to design - your archive grows as you write.
What you get
- Subdomain: yourname.textpad.cloud, free.
- Per-post URL: every post has its own clean link.
- Public archive: auto-generated index of everything.
- Per-post privacy: public or private, your choice.
Start without an account
You don't need to sign up to start. Paste anything on the home page and you'll get an anonymous archive immediately. Pick a username and claim it later when you're sure.
