How to Share a PowerPoint Presentation Online with Tiiny.host

What if you could share your impressive PowerPoint presentation online?

Well, you can… with Tiiny.host.

There’s a little secret to it, but it’s simple once you know it.

Once your presentation is online, you can share it with the world or use a password to protect it from prying eyes.

You can even edit it online without PowerPoint present.

I’ll walk you through the steps.

Sharing Your PowerPoint Presentation Online

We all know that Microsoft PowerPoint is the industry standard for presentations.

But not all presentations must be held in stuffy rooms. It’s possible—even practical—to host your presentation online with as many people as you wish. Or as few as you wish if you need some password-protected privacy.

Usually, you need a copy of PowerPoint installed on a computer to view a presentation. But we at Tiiny.host have built a simple presentation platform you can use without having the PowerPoint app installed.

Here’s the Secret

To easily host and share your presentation, you’ll take one step in PowerPoint, and then almost everything else is automated by our Tiiny hosting platform.

All you need to do is export your PowerPoint presentation as a PDF and upload it to Tiiny.host.

That’s the secret. Maybe it’s not that big of a trick, but it works. And it’s easy to do. Saves you loads of time, too.

Here’s how to do it.

  • Choose “Export…” from PowerPoint’s File menu and save your presentation as a PDF.

Once your presentation is exported as a PDF, remember where you stored it. You’re already prepared to host and share it online, and you’ll need it.

Hosting and Sharing a PDF with Tiiny.host

There is no simpler way than Tiiny.host to get your PDF presentation online. It even says so on our homepage.

What the other hosting services don’t offer is our unique Presentation Mode—PDFs appear online as a slide show.

Here’s all you do:

  1. Give your presentation a name in the link-name field.
  2. Drag and drop your PowerPoint PDF presentation file onto the homepage.
  3. Sign in.

This is what it looks like:

You’ll see a small window that gives you hosting options.

  • Under “Settings,” click the Presentation mode toggle to select it and turn it on.
  • You may also disable downloads of the PDF file or hide the website from the search engines.
  • Click Publish.

That’s it. You’re done.

In moments, your PowerPoint presentation PDF is live online and ready to share.

You can view the Tiiny presentation I created for this post.

  • On the image above, notice the button labeled “QR code.” It’s in the center at the bottom.

A QR code is a visual link to your presentation. The one below is active. It’s the square with all the dots inside.

  • Scan the QR code below with your smartphone camera and tap the link. You’ll be transported to the Tiiny presentation site.

Editing Your Presentation

Stray typos and minor text errors in your presentation are annoying, especially once you’ve put it online.

With our PDF editor, there’s no need to return to your PowerPoint app to change something. You can edit your presentation right from your Tiiny.host dashboard.

  • Click the “Edit PDF” icon on your dashboard.

Your PDF presentation will appear in the editing window, ready for your changes.

Using Tiiny.host’s Advanced Features

There’s a lot more you can do with your new presentation website.

Built-in Analytics

All of our paid plans offer website analytics. You can see pageviews, visitors, sessions, and more.

Custom domains

If you want to up the branding of your presentation, use a custom domain name in place of the tiiny.co domain name assigned as a default.

You’ll need to have or purchase a domain name from an official registrar like Namecheap or Dreamhost. Then, just point it to your website, and you’re good to go.

Password protection

You can assign a password as a control and security measure. You do this when you first upload your file.

Contact our superb customer service people if you need help after uploading your file. They can get you squared away properly.

Team collaboration

With our Pro and Business tiers, you can invite your team members to help run your site. Collaboration helps when you’re busy or on another project. Editing, analytics, and integrations—and everything else—are all available to team members.
