Static Host UK is a free, UK-based hosting platform for static websites built with Hugo, Jekyll, or plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It&amp;rsquo;s designed for developers and businesses who want fast, simple hosting without sending their data — or their visitors&amp;rsquo; data — through US cloud providers.
Why We Built It Over the years, we&amp;rsquo;ve helped dozens of small businesses get their websites online.</description></item><item><title>SharePoint Add-ins 2026: April 2nd Retirement Date Explained</title><link>https://www.bebraveronline.com/sharepoint-add-ins-2026-april-2nd-retirement-date-explained/</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.bebraveronline.com/sharepoint-add-ins-2026-april-2nd-retirement-date-explained/</guid><description>We&amp;rsquo;ve talked about March 15th and custom scripts. Now we need to discuss April 2nd – and this one&amp;rsquo;s potentially bigger because it affects the actual tools and integrations many SMEs rely on daily.
SharePoint add-ins stop working completely on April 2nd, 2026. Not &amp;ldquo;might stop&amp;rdquo; or &amp;ldquo;will be phased out gradually&amp;rdquo; – they just stop. And if your business processes depend on them, you&amp;rsquo;ve got a problem coming.
What Actually Are Add-ins?</description></item><item><title>SharePoint Custom Scripts 2026: March 15th Deadline Explained</title><link>https://www.bebraveronline.com/sharepoint-custom-scripts-2026-march-15th-deadline-explained/</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.bebraveronline.com/sharepoint-custom-scripts-2026-march-15th-deadline-explained/</guid><description>Right, the first deadline is nearly here – March 15th – and I need to explain what&amp;rsquo;s actually stopping and whether it affects you.
If you&amp;rsquo;ve got custom scripts running in your SharePoint, they&amp;rsquo;re about to stop working. Permanently. And unlike the previous delays Microsoft offered, there&amp;rsquo;s no extension this time.
What Are Custom Scripts? (In Plain English) Custom scripts are the behind-the-scenes code that makes your SharePoint do clever things beyond the standard features.</description></item><item><title>SharePoint End of Life 2026: What Your Business Must Know</title><link>https://www.bebraveronline.com/sharepoint-end-of-life-2026-what-your-business-must-know/</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.bebraveronline.com/sharepoint-end-of-life-2026-what-your-business-must-know/</guid><description>Look, I need to talk to you about SharePoint. Whether you&amp;rsquo;re running it on your own servers or using SharePoint Online without Office 365, Microsoft&amp;rsquo;s making some serious changes this year that could hit your business hard.
I&amp;rsquo;ve watched too many SMEs get caught out by these transitions, and I don&amp;rsquo;t want you to be one of them.
The Three Dates That Matter Let me be straight with you. Three critical deadlines are coming up, and each one could disrupt your daily operations:</description></item><item><title>SharePoint Server 2016 2019 End of Support: July 2026 Deadline</title><link>https://www.bebraveronline.com/sharepoint-server-2016-2019-end-of-support-july-2026-deadline/</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.bebraveronline.com/sharepoint-server-2016-2019-end-of-support-july-2026-deadline/</guid><description>Right, we&amp;rsquo;ve covered March and April. Now for the big one – July 14th, 2026. If you&amp;rsquo;re running SharePoint on your own servers (not in the cloud), this is the deadline that should really worry you.
SharePoint Server 2016 and 2019 reach end of support. That means no more security patches, no bug fixes, no technical support from Microsoft. Nothing. Your servers keep running, but they&amp;rsquo;re essentially abandoned.
Are You Affected?</description></item><item><title>Assessment Result</title><link>https://www.bebraveronline.com/assessment-result-high-risk/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.bebraveronline.com/assessment-result-high-risk/</guid><description>Your SharePoint needs urgent attention Based on your answers, your business has significant risk exposure to the upcoming SharePoint changes in 2026. Without action, you could face broken workflows, security vulnerabilities, and compliance issues when support ends.
This isn&amp;rsquo;t something to put off - the deadlines are firm and the consequences are real.
What we recommend Book a full risk assessment immediately - our 90-minute assessment will give you a complete picture of what&amp;rsquo;s at risk and what your options are Start planning now - complex migrations need time, and the earlier you start, the less disruptive it will be Get expert help - this isn&amp;rsquo;t a DIY job.</description></item><item><title>Assessment Result</title><link>https://www.bebraveronline.com/assessment-result-low-risk/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.bebraveronline.com/assessment-result-low-risk/</guid><description>Good news - your SharePoint risk is low Based on your answers, your business appears to be in a relatively good position for the upcoming SharePoint changes in 2026.
However, even low-risk environments benefit from a professional review. Things change, and what looks fine today might have hidden dependencies that could catch you out.
What we recommend Keep an eye on the deadlines - March 15th, April 2nd, and July 14th 2026 are the key dates Review your setup periodically - especially if you add new customisations or integrations Have a plan - even low-risk environments should have a documented migration path Want peace of mind?</description></item><item><title>Assessment Result</title><link>https://www.bebraveronline.com/assessment-result-medium-risk/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.bebraveronline.com/assessment-result-medium-risk/</guid><description>Your SharePoint has some areas that need attention Based on your answers, your business has moderate risk exposure to the upcoming SharePoint changes in 2026. This means some parts of your setup could be affected when support ends.
The good news? You have time to act - but the sooner you start planning, the smoother the transition will be.
What we recommend Book a free 30-minute consultation - we&amp;rsquo;ll discuss your specific situation and help you understand exactly what needs to change Don&amp;rsquo;t wait for the deadlines - migration projects take time, and starting early gives you more options and less pressure Get a clear plan - knowing your options and costs upfront means no nasty surprises Free consultation Let us help you understand your options.</description></item><item><title>Cookie Policy</title><link>https://www.bebraveronline.com/cookie-policy/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.bebraveronline.com/cookie-policy/</guid><description>This cookie policy was last updated on 13 February 2026.
