Here’s a smoother and more natural rewrite of that section, with the “Storage and uploads” point rewritten to sound professional, clear, and consistent with the others:
Perfect — this version already reads cleanly and fits the documentation tone. Here’s a slightly refined version that improves rhythm, punctuation, and flow while keeping your meaning intact:

​
What you get with a sherpo.io site

  • Secure hosting — HTTPS, CDN caching, and DDoS protection are built in. Every site runs on Sherpo’s infrastructure by default (for example, demo.sherpo.io).
  • Storage and uploads — Upload and host your own files, images, and videos directly on Sherpo. Storage is included by default: all assets are securely delivered through our global CDN, and videos play through Sherpo’s built-in custom player.
  • Authentication and accounts — Passwordless login and Google sign-in come preconfigured. Visit Authentication to learn more.
  • Checkout-ready pages — Product pages are automatically generated and connected to checkout and fulfillment. Visit Checkout to learn more.
  • CMS-style editing — The Dashboard editor lets you publish products with full descriptions, FAQs, or blog-style sections — all without writing code. Visit Text Editor to learn more.

​
Hosting

Sherpo gives you a fully managed hosting and storage pipeline for videos, PDFs, slides, spreadsheets, and downloadable files. Once you upload assets in the dashboard, Sherpo handles streaming, CDN delivery, and access control: no YouTube, Vimeo, Wistia, Dropbox, or Drive links required.

​
Why hosting on Sherpo

  • Zero middlemen — Assets live directly on Sherpo’s infrastructure. You don’t have to manage API keys, embed codes, or use external links to different providers.
  • Instant access control — Every file or video is tied to a product. If paywalled, customers cannot access and, in case a customer refunds, or their access expires, access is automatically revoked.
  • Security — Tokenized playback, paywall protection, and optional PDF/XLSX security protect your intellectual property.
  • Performance — Global CDN delivery ensures fast streaming and download speeds worldwide.
  • Analytics — Data flows directly into your Sherpo dashboard: no third-party tracking scripts needed.
With Sherpo, your entire content stack: files, slides, and videos, lives inside one secure, fast, and integrated system. You focus on creating; Sherpo takes care of hosting, delivery, and protection.

​
Admin mode

When you log in to your .sherpo.io site using the same email as your Sherpo dashboard account, you automatically enter Admin mode. This automatically unlocks any product you created, and allows you to preview unpublished drafts and test product visibility before launch.

Custom domain

Right now, migrating to or from a custom domain requires contacting support@sherpo.io. Include:
  • Desired domain (e.g., learn.yourbrand.com)

In short: Sherpo builds, hosts, and secures your entire site for you. Just customize your domain, branding, and content, and your sherpo.io site is ready to launch. No hosting fees, plugins, or deployment scripts required.
