The site is down for me. HN Hug.

Yeah probably with HN traffic, now seems work. Can you please try one more time?

All of the links seem to throw application error.

I like the simplicity. Also, I'm assuming it's not free, it would be nice to know what's the price before signing up. Maybe you could just add some sort of a disclaimer, e.g. Generate / Create new site (free up to 1k visitors/month, $5 after). Good luck!

Agree! I've just added that for 1 custom domain it's for $5 /mon and for unlimited domains $10 / mon

FWIW, YC funded startup Cloud Stitch does something similar https://cloudstitch.com/

One cool thing about sheet2site is that the sheet2site's idea is presented clearer than the cloudstitch's one. I mean when I opened sheet2site website I understood what it does in a moment. But in case of cloudstitch I have to force my brain to work to understand what this means: "Cloudstitch lets you manage websites & run your business, all from your office suite."

haha, thanks :) Maybe if you are "true" startup you can't be simple and clear? :)

Oh! If you don't mind my asking, how do you go about selling custom domains? Or if there are resources you can point me to, that would be helpful, too.

Great idea! Any ideas for expansion? I imagine you could map rows/columns to a bootstrap-like grid system for more custom layouts.
