How to Make a Notion Page Public (The 30-Second Guide)
Step-by-step guide to making your Notion pages public so you can easily share your work with others.
You have built a beautiful page in Notion. Maybe it’s a polished resume, a professional portfolio, or a list of resources you want to share with a client. But right now, it’s locked inside your private workspace.
You need to get it on the web, and you need to do it fast.
The good news? Turning a Notion page into a live website takes less than 30 seconds. You don’t need to know how to code, and you don’t need to pay for hosting.
Here is the step-by-step guide on how to make a Notion page public, customized for total beginners.
How to Publish a Notion page to the web?
Follow these three simple steps to turn your private note into a public website.
1. Open Your Notion Page
Log in to your Notion account. From the sidebar, open the workspace and select the page you want to share.
For example, here I’ll choose my Notion page titled “Life OS Dashboard.”
2. Click Share
In the top-right corner of your Notion page, click the Share button. A dialog box will appear with two options: Share and Publish.
3. Click Publish
In the dialog box, select Publish and click the blue Publish button.
Success! Your page is now live, and a unique URL has been generated.
How do I share a link with people who don't have a Notion account?
A common mistake beginners make is sending a link that doesn't work. If you send a link and the recipient sees a "Access Denied" screen, you likely copied the wrong URL.
Do not copy the URL from your browser's address bar. That link is for your internal use only.
To obtain the correct public link, open the Share > Publish menu, locate the Copy web link button, click it to copy the link, and then share this URL with others.

Before sharing that link on social media or sending it to a client, you need to verify the "Site customization" and permissions settings. These toggles determine what visitors can do on your page.
Option | Description | Recommended Use |
Customize site styling | Adjusts visual layout, icons, and cover image. | Helpful for aesthetic consistency before publishing. |
Search engine indexing | Allows Google to show your Notion page in search results. | Turn ON if your page is public-facing (e.g. portfolio, blog). |
Duplicate as template | Lets users copy your page into their own workspace. | Ideal for Notion template creators. |
Manage all sites and links | Central hub to manage every Notion page you’ve made public. | Use to track shared pages and revoke access. |
Embed this page | Lets you embed your Notion page elsewhere — like in another site or Notion page. | Great for cross-linking content. |
Share via social | Quickly share your public link to platforms like X or LinkedIn. | Useful for portfolios or announcements. |
However, Notion’s built-in SEO tools are limited, even on the Plus plan ($10/month). If you want stronger SEO controls, lightning-fast performance, and a beautiful design that doesn’t look like a default Notion site, Bullet.so can take your public page to the next level.
It instantly converts your Notion page into a modern website, while keeping all your content editable inside Notion. No code, no extra setup, just publish and go.
What happens to the sub-pages inside my public page?
This is the most critical safety feature you need to understand before sharing your link.
When you publish a Notion page, every sub-page inside it becomes public automatically.
Think of your pages like a folder structure. If you share the "Parent" folder, you are implicitly sharing every "Child" file inside it.
- The Risk: If you have a public "Portfolio" page, but you have dragged a private "Journal" page inside of it for safekeeping, the world can read your journal.
- The Solution: Check your page structure carefully. Move any private notes OUT of the page before you hit publish.
Conclusion
You now know exactly how to make a Notion page public. It is fast and free.
To recap, simply go to the Share menu and click Publish. Always use the "Copy web link" button so your friends and clients can see it. Before you share that link, take a moment to check your settings and hide any private sub-pages.
You have turned your notes into a live website in seconds. You are ready to share your work with others.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Is publishing a Notion page free?
Yes. You can publish unlimited pages on the standard Free Plan.
- Can I use my own domain (like www.myname.com)?
Not natively on the free plan. Notion provides a
notion.site domain. To use a custom domain, you generally need a paid Notion plan or a third-party wrapper tool like Super.so.- How do I unpublish the page later?
Go to Share > Publish and click Unpublish. The link will stop working immediately, and anyone who clicks it will see a 404 error.
- Can visitors edit my page?
By default, no. The page is "Read Only." However, you can allow this by going to Site customization and toggling to Allow editing (useful for wikis, dangerous for resumes).
