## What is hosting?

Hosting simply means putting your project on the internet so other people can visit it as a website. When you “publish” a project, Bolt takes the files you’ve created and makes them available at a live web address anyone can open in their browser.

Bolt hosting lets you publish your project to a live URL in seconds, with a free `.bolt.host` domain included. No third-party account is required: Bolt handles everything.

## Who can use Bolt hosting?

All Bolt users, both Free and Pro, can publish their projects to a `.bolt.host` domain, although [custom domains](/cloud/domains) are only available for Pro users.
