How to Host Your GoHighLevel Export on Netlify

Once your GoHighLevel site is exported, Netlify gets it back online — free, fast, and with HTTPS — in about five minutes. Here's the whole flow.

Because an ExportGHL export is plain static HTML, CSS, and JS, it doesn't need a server or a builder to run — it just needs a static host. Netlify is one of the easiest: you can drag a folder onto it and have a live, HTTPS-secured URL in minutes, on a generous free tier.

From export to a live, HTTPS-secured Netlify site in five steps.
Your export comes from ExportGHL Sites, the front-end exporter. Moving the whole account off GoHighLevel? Clone your automations too with ExportGHL Workflows.

Step 1: Export Your GoHighLevel Site

Open your site, open the ExportGHL extension, enable rendered snapshot mode and discover hidden pages, click Export Full Site, and unzip the download. Details in the export walkthrough.

Step 2: Deploy to Netlify (Drag & Drop)

Two ways to deploy to NetlifyYour unzipped export folderContains index.htmlDrag & dropNetlify Drop(app.netlify.com/drop)Git repoPush to GitHub, connect inNetlifyLive Netlify URLyour-site.netlify.appAutomatic redeploysOn every change
Drag and drop is the quick route; a connected repo redeploys on every change.
  1. Create a free account at netlify.com and open Netlify Drop (app.netlify.com/drop).
  2. Drag your unzipped export folder (the one containing index.html) onto the drop zone.
  3. Netlify uploads it and gives you a live URL like your-site.netlify.app — that's your site, back online.

Prefer version control? Push the folder to a GitHub repo and connect it in Netlify for automatic redeploys on every change.

Step 3: Connect Your Custom Domain

In your Netlify site, go to Domain settings → Add a custom domain, enter your domain, and point your DNS at Netlify (an A record or their name servers). Netlify provisions a free HTTPS certificate automatically, so your site loads securely on your own domain.

Step 4: Reconnect Forms & Calendars

Static hosting cannot run GHL forms, so Netlify handling and embeds take their place.

Static hosting can't run GHL's forms, but Netlify has built-in form handling, and you can drop in Calendly or Stripe embeds — see reconnecting forms and calendars.

Want other options? Vercel, Cloudflare Pages, and GitHub Pages work the same way — the self-hosting guide and the complete migration guide cover them.
