Xodia hosting: live in one click, on your own domain
Go live, in the Publish menu, puts your site on its own xodia.site address with HTTPS, on every plan. On a paid plan, connect your own domain, test each update on a private Preview and roll back any version in one click.
Free plan. No card needed.
The Publish menu in Xodia: the live site on rise-bakery.xodia.site with Copy and Open, published 5 minutes ago, Update live site and more actions (Versions, Take offline), then Push to Git and Deploy.
Go live
One click puts your site on the web
Open Publish in the top bar and choose Go live. Xodia builds your site and puts it on its public address, such as rise-bakery.xodia.site, open to everyone and to search engines.
- HTTPS on every address, with nothing to set up
- Every page is built ahead as real HTML with its own title and description, so search engines and link previews see it
- Pages that don't exist answer with your own not found page, and a sitemap lists the rest
- Free puts one site live with a small Made with Xodia badge; paid plans put every project live, with no badge
The Publish menu in Xodia before the site is live: Go live, which puts the site on its public address, rise-bakery.xodia.site, then Push to Git and Deploy.
Update and roll back
Update when you're ready, and go back in one click
Your live site changes only when you choose Update live site. Each update keeps the version before it, so a mistake is one click from gone.
- Copy or open the live address, and see when it was last published
- Versions lists the kept versions, newest first, and Make live puts one back at once, with no new build
- Kept versions: 3 on Free and 10 on Starter, Pro and Agency
- Take offline stops the address and keeps every version for later

Your site address
Choose the name before .xodia.site
Each site starts on an address made from its name. Change it in Project settings, Domains, Site address, on every plan.
- Xodia checks the new name against every workspace as you type
- The old address sends visitors to the new one for 30 days
- Up to 5 changes a day; a few names are reserved
Xodia's Project settings on Domains: the Site address card with rise-bakery-shop.xodia.site typed and marked available.
Custom domains
Starter and upYour own domain, with HTTPS set up for you
Choose the hosting add-on for the site in Project settings, Domains, then type your domain. Xodia shows one or two DNS records to add where you manage the domain, and sets up HTTPS once they are in.
- A record usually takes a few minutes to show up, sometimes a few hours, and the domain moves from Pending to Live on its own
- Add www and the bare domain together: the one you don't choose as primary sends visitors to the other
- Xodia never changes your DNS. The domain stays where you bought it
Step by step: Connect a custom domain.
Xodia's Project settings on Domains: the Site address card with rise-bakery.xodia.site; the Hosting add-on with Site chosen and Busy beside it, each with its visits and price; Custom domains with www.risebakery.com Pending, its CNAME record named www with the value sites.xodia.site, and Check now.
Preview
Test on the Preview before your domain changes
With a custom domain, the site's xodia.site address becomes its Preview, hidden from search engines. In the Publish menu, tick where each update goes: your domain, the Preview or both.
- Update the Preview, check it, then update your domain when it looks right
- Xodia remembers what you ticked last time
- Send the Preview to a client for review before anything changes on the real site
- Starter, Pro and Agency can put a password on the Preview
The Publish menu in Xodia with a custom domain: www.risebakery.com and the Preview, rise-bakery.xodia.site, each ticked with when it was published, the Password on Preview switch and Update both, then Push to Git and Deploy.
Visits
Plenty of visits, and no surprise bills
Sites on xodia.site share the workspace's visits each month: about 1,000 visits a month on Free, 2,500 on Starter, 5,000 on Pro and 10,000 on Agency. A site with the hosting add-on gets its own.
Emails before the limit
The owner gets an email at 80% and at 100% of the visits, with the ways to get more: a bigger plan, or the add-on on a busy site.
It keeps serving for a while
A site with the add-on keeps serving up to 125% of its visits, then for a 7-day grace, so a busy week never takes it down by surprise.
Then it rests until next month
Past that, the site shows a short resting page until the next month starts or you move to a bigger tier. Nothing is charged on top.
Your editor keeps working
Editing, your AI, the CMS and every other part of Xodia keep working the whole time, and nothing is deleted.

Your choice
Or keep deploying to your own host
Hosting on Xodia is an option, never a must. Your code stays yours in git either way.
Your own host
Deploy, in the Publish menu, merges your work into your live branch on GitHub, and Vercel, Netlify and Cloudflare build it as they do today. See deploys.
Move any time
Start on xodia.site and move to your own host later, or the other way round. Nothing is locked in.
Forms work everywhere
Xodia Forms works on xodia.site addresses, your custom domain and any other host.
Questions
Xodia hosting questions
Which sites can go live on Xodia?
Every project: sites made from the Xodia template, plain HTML sites and imported Vite sites. Xodia builds the site from the branch you have open and puts it live.
Do I need the add-on for a xodia.site address?
No. Every plan can go live on xodia.site with no add-on: Free with one site and a small badge, paid plans with every project and no badge. The add-on is for a custom domain and the site's own visits.
Do I have to move my domain to Xodia?
No. Your domain stays where you bought it. You add one or two DNS records there, and Xodia never changes your DNS.
How is the add-on billed?
On your plan's subscription, per site. Adding it charges the rest of the current month straight away, then it renews with your plan. If you remove it, billing stops at once with no credit, and the domain keeps working until the end of the month you paid for.
What happens if I move to Free or my plan lapses?
Nothing is deleted. A custom domain shows a short paused page, and it comes back the moment the plan does. Your xodia.site address follows the Free rules.
Is the Preview the same as my live site?
It is the same site on a different address. You choose which address each update goes to, so the Preview can be a step ahead of your domain while you test. Search engines don't index it.
Can I still use Vercel, Netlify or Cloudflare?
Yes. Deploy sends your site to your own host, as before. Host connections, with deploy status and build logs in Xodia, come with Starter, Pro and Agency.
