# Uploading Pool Metadata to GitHub Pages
### **To host the file containing metadata for your pool on GitHub Pages:**
1. Sign up or login to your [GitHub](https://github.com) account.
2. [Create a new public repository](https://github.com/new) named *username*.github.io, where *username* is your username (or organization name) on GitHub. **Shorter the better.**
3. Click Get started by "**creating a new file**" under Quick setup.\\
4. Enter your file name as **md.json** and paste in your JSON content.
5. Click **Commit Changes...**
6. If everything worked properly, your pool metadata is now hosted at URL:
```
https://USERNAME.github.io/FILE
```
{% hint style="info" %}
Example URL:
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="warning" %}
Ensure the URL is less than 64 characters. If too long, pick a shorter github username or shorter json file name.
{% endhint %}
7. In your stakepool registration transaction, set the value of the `--metadata-url` parameter to this URL.
8. On your block producer node, download your JSON file using the URL with `wget` command:
```bash
cd $NODE_HOME
wget -O md.json
```
{% hint style="warning" %}
Note that it can take up to 10 minutes for changes to your site to publish after you commit changes.
{% endhint %}
9. As a sanity check, check the contents of your JSON file.
```bash
cat md.json
```
10. On your block producer node, generate the updated pool metadata hash.
```bash
cardano-cli conway stake-pool metadata-hash --pool-metadata-file md.json > poolMetaDataHash.txt
```
