+
+## Introduction
+
+[Render](https://render.com) is a fully-managed cloud platform where you can host static sites, backend APIs, databases, cron jobs, and all your other apps in one place.
+
+Static sites are **completely free** on Render and include the following:
+
+- Continuous, automatic builds & deploys from [GitHub](https://render.com/docs/github) and [GitLab](https://render.com/docs/gitlab).
+- Automatic SSL certificates through [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org).
+- Instant cache invalidation with a lightning fast, global CDN.
+- Unlimited collaborators.
+- Unlimited [custom domains](https://render.com/docs/custom-domains).
+- Automatic [Brotli compression](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brotli) for faster sites.
+- Native HTTP/2 support.
+- [Pull Request Previews](https://render.com/docs/pull-request-previews).
+- Automatic HTTP → HTTPS redirects.
+- Custom URL redirects and rewrites.
+
+## Assumptions
+
+- You have an account with GitHub or GitLab.
+- You have completed the [Quick Start] or have a Hugo website you are ready to deploy and share with the world.
+- You have a Render account. You can sign up at https://render.com/register.
+
+## Deployment
+
+You can set up a Hugo site on Render in two quick steps:
+
+1. Create a new **Static Site** on Render, and give Render permission to access your GitHub/GitLab repo.
+1. Use the following values during creation:
+
+Field                | Value
+-------------------  |  -------------------
+**Build Command**     | `hugo --gc --minify` (or your own build command)
+**Publish Directory** | `public` (or your own output directory)
+
+That's it! Your site will be live on your Render URL (which looks like `yoursite.onrender.com`) as soon as the build is done.
+
+## Continuous deploys
+
+Now that Render is connected to your repo, it will **automatically build and publish your site** any time you push to your GitHub/GitLab.
+
+You can choose to disable auto deploys under the **Settings** section for your site and deploy it manually from the Render dashboard.
+
+## CDN and cache invalidation
+
+Render hosts your site on a global, lightning fast CDN which ensures the fastest possible download times for all your users across the globe.
+
+Every deploy automatically and instantly invalidates the CDN cache, so your users can always access the latest content on your site.
+
+## Custom domains
+
+Add your own domains to your site easily using Render's [custom domains](https://render.com/docs/custom-domains) guide.
+
+## Pull Request previews
+
+With Pull Request (PR) previews, you can visualize changes introduced in a pull request instead of simply relying on code reviews.
+
+Once enabled, every PR for your site will automatically generate a new static site based on the code in the PR. It will have its own URL, and it will be deleted automatically when the PR is closed.
+
+Read more about [Pull Request Previews](https://render.com/docs/pull-request-previews) on Render.
+
+## Hugo themes
+
+Render automatically downloads all Git submodules defined in your Git repo on every build. This way Hugo themes added as submodules work as expected.
+
