# Why PageHub

The questions worth asking before you trust a platform with your business.
Here are the honest answers.

## Your site is yours to take

Export your whole site as a ZIP of its files, with the published pages as
static HTML. Your collections, form entries, and customers come out as CSV. Host
it on PageHub, your own server, or anywhere that serves files — it runs the
same.

## Nothing you make is ever lost

Every save is a version. Open the history, preview any point in time, and
restore the whole site or a single page — a restore lands in a draft, so it
never overwrites what's live until you publish. Backups run nightly too, and
you can back up by hand whenever you want. One is taken automatically before
every restore.

## Payments go straight to you

Connect your own Stripe account and keep every sale — PageHub takes nothing
from your orders, on any plan. Checkout happens on Stripe's own hosted page,
so card numbers never touch PageHub. We store your order details and your
Stripe connection, never a card.

## Your visitors' data stays yours

Form entries are saved to your dashboard and emailed to you, scoped to the
one site they came from. You decide where each form sends — your inbox, a
collection, your own endpoint, or a webhook. No other site can read them.

## Built to be found, and to be fast

Set the title, description, social image, and structured data on every page,
generate a sitemap, and tell search engines exactly what to index. Published
pages ship as plain static HTML — they
score 95–100 in PageSpeed's lab test. We give you the controls and the
speed; where you rank comes down to your content and your market, and anyone
who promises you a ranking is guessing.

## If PageHub ever went away

You'd still have your site. Because you can export it as static HTML or a
real codebase at any time, your work doesn't live or die with us — it's
yours to move. That's the whole point of the export, not fine print.

## Don't just take our word for it

We'd rather show you than tell you. The [About page](https://pagehub.dev/about)
has real sites we've built and handed to their owners, start to finish.
