## Summary

Mozilla is shutting down Solo, its AI-powered website builder and hosting service, on 30 November 2026, after which all hosted sites and data will be deleted. The closure leaves users needing to move their websites and domains, highlighting the risks of relying on a provider for an online presence.

Launched in December 2023 for sole traders, Solo was used by about 54,000 people. Users can download a ZIP with an HTML export, contact form and newsletter submissions, plus a CSV linking to images, which must be saved separately. Domains bought through Solo Domains can be transferred to Name.com, following Mozilla’s instructions; the company says it notified users on 1 October and offered a 60-day transition period.
