: Point custom domain to single webpage hosted on Dropbox I have a static html page that I would like to host in Dropbox's public folder and make accessible by a domain of mine, e.g example.org.
I have a static html page that I would like to host in Dropbox's public folder and make accessible by a domain of mine, e.g example.org.
The html page has the following url structure dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/user_nubmer/folder_name/index.html
Is it possible to point a custom domain to a url (such as above) and:
A) have the domain persist in the address bar
B) make the content indexable by search engines

Frames!
You can search for a free host (such as 000webhost, HostYD or Hostinger) and create a page with the following content:
<iframe src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/user_nubmer/folder_name/index.html" style="position:fixed; top:0px; left:0px; bottom:0px; right:0px; width:100%; height:100%; border:none; margin:0; padding:0; overflow:hidden; z-index:999999;">
Your browser doesn't support IFrames
</iframe>`
As you can see, it loads the content from dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/user_nubmer/folder_name/index.html.
Point your domain to the free web host and it'll load the Dropbox file from a frame.
You said you don't want to use hosting, but well... I couldn't think of another way, so you'll be better off by doing this ^
