mdshare is great for a throwaway, no-login Markdown paste. dochost is the alternative when you want the same speed but a page that persists, carries your branding, or hides behind a password.
Get a clean link in seconds — no signup, free for 7 days.
A no-login Markdown sharer is perfect for a quick, disposable link — paste, share, forget. The limits show up the moment the page matters: there is no account, so you cannot find it again, the link is not meant to last, and there is no way to lock it or put it on your own address. dochost keeps the fast path — paste Markdown or HTML, get a link, no account required — but adds the things you want once a paste becomes a real document: a signed-in dashboard to manage your pages, permanent links, a custom subdomain, and password protection. You start as fast as a throwaway tool and grow into a durable one without switching services.
A support lead pastes a troubleshooting guide into a no-login Markdown tool and shares it in a customer thread. It works — until two weeks later, when they want to update a step and realize they have no way back to the page, and the old link has expired anyway. They redo it in dochost while signed in. The Markdown renders the same way, but now the page lives in their dashboard, so when the product changes they open it, edit, and republish. Because it is on a paid plan the link is permanent and sits on support.dochost.co, so the URL they handed out keeps working and looks like theirs. The throwaway became a maintained reference without ever leaving the same paste-and-link workflow.
Free links last 7 days with a free account. On a paid plan every page you create stays online permanently.
