Published:
GitHub Pages
- GitHub allows only one free hosting static page against per github account
- developers can develop their page with
HTML, CSS
, andJavascript
. - very important: for this your github account name, and newly created repository name must me the same. For example, if your github account is
sample-git
, then your page name must besample-git.github.io
, which later will generate urlhttps://sample-git.github.io
- you can not push files to your repository, upload templates, or develop manually.
- https://jekyllthemes.io/ is an awesome repository for templates.
Google Indexing

- now go to the https://search.google.com/search-console/welcome?hl=en&utm_source=wmx&utm_medium=deprecation-pane&utm_content=home
- take the url prefix for verification (second option)
- paste your url, you will have a
google_verification.html
code - simply upload it to your github main repository
- wait a bit, because the github takes some time, then click on the verify in google search console.
