Personal blog

Most personal blogs die because publishing takes too much effort. Sitepaste keeps the loop short: write a page in Markdown, deploy, done. There is nothing to maintain between posts.

Writing

Write in the dashboard editor, in plain Markdown or a visual mode, whichever you prefer. A post is a title, a body, and optionally some tags:

---
title: Things I learned mass-producing sourdough
tags: [cooking, lessons]
---

I started baking sourdough during the pandemic like everyone else.
But unlike everyone else, I never stopped. Here's what three years
of weekly baking taught me.

Posts appear in your blog feed ordered by date, and tags let readers browse by topic.

Structure when you want it

A blog rarely stays just a blog. Add an about page as a standalone page at /about. Add a section for anything that deserves its own corner of the site, such as /recipes/, /projects/, or /reading/. Everything is a Markdown page with a couple of fields; there is no site builder to fight.

Fast for readers

Deploys produce static HTML. No server rendering, no database, no framework loading before your words appear. Images are converted to WebP automatically so pages stay light.

Starting free, growing later

The Free plan covers a real blog: the editor, your yourusername.sitepaste.com address, and 3 deploys a month, which is enough to post weekly if you batch your edits.

Pro adds the things a more serious blog eventually wants: a custom domain, theme selection and customization, password-protected pages, more deploys and storage, and API tokens. Tokens unlock publishing from outside the dashboard, whether from the Obsidian plugin, a GitHub repo, or your phone.

Either way, your content is Markdown. If you ever leave, your posts are files, not rows in someone else’s database.
