PowerPoint to Website · Your App Cloud
Turn your PowerPoint deck into a website
Slides are sized for a wide screen and a presenter who fills the gaps. Upload your deck, merge its slides into pages, write down what you usually say, and read every page on a phone.
From a talk given in one order to pages visitors open in any order.
Decide which slides feed each page, put into words what you usually say out loud, then read the result on the narrow screen of a phone.
01
Merge slides into pages
Your talk runs in the order you chose, but a visitor jumps straight to prices or directions. Attach the deck with the upload button above, then write down the pages a visitor would look for and the slides behind each, such as slides 5 to 8 for Memberships. Leave out slides that only served the room, like the Q&A slide and bare section dividers.
02
Write out what you say at each slide
A bullet such as 'Flexible terms' is a cue for you, not a sentence for a stranger. Run through the deck aloud once, or read the notes under each slide, and paste the sentences a visitor needs into the prompt. Check any wording the building assistant in Studio drafts against what you really offer.
03
Match the theme, then read it on a phone
Name the deck's theme colors and fonts so the site can start from the same look. A widescreen slide is wider than it is tall and a phone is the reverse, so open the preview at phone width and read each page top to bottom. Publish, then send the address to someone who never saw the talk.
Where each slide ends up on the site.
Read across each row: a slide or feature from your deck, its place on the website, and how to confirm it. The slide text is invented, from a sales deck for Kestrel Works, a made-up coworking space in Santa Cruz, California.
| On your slides | On the site | How to check it |
|---|---|---|
| The agenda slide: 'Who we are, Memberships, The space, Events, Q&A' | The menu, with one page for each item a visitor would choose | An agenda also lists stops that only exist in a talk, such as Q&A. Keep the items that stand up as pages, and check that the menu fits on one line, or behind one button, at phone width. |
| A Summary Zoom slide showing a thumbnail of each section, if your deck has one | The home page's links to the other pages, in the same order | Microsoft likens a summary zoom to a landing page for the presentation, which is close to a home page's job. Tap each link on the home page and confirm it opens the page matching its thumbnail. |
| The title slide: 'Kestrel Works: a workspace for remote teams. Downtown Business Breakfast, March 2026' | The home page headline, without the event name or the date | Read the first screen of the home page as someone who missed the breakfast. It should say what you offer and where, and nothing on it should tie the page to one morning's talk. |
| A full-bleed photo of the main floor with 'Room to focus' typed across it | A wide banner image, with the headline as real text on top | A banner cut from a widescreen slide gets cropped hard on a tall phone screen. At phone width, check that the desks stay in view and the headline sits on a calm part of the photo, where it stays readable. |
| A Comparison layout: 'Hot desk' on the left, 'Dedicated desk' on the right, each with its own bullets | Two blocks side by side on a laptop, stacked one above the other on a phone | In PowerPoint, Review, Check Accessibility lists slides whose object order looks off, and its Reading Order pane numbers each object. Use that order for the stack, then confirm on the site that each heading sits directly above its own bullets. |
| A pricing slide: 'Hot desk $275/mo, Dedicated desk $425/mo, Private office from $950/mo' | A Memberships page with each plan, its price and what it includes | Sales decks drift toward the prices quoted in the last pitch. Compare every figure with your current public rates, and say what 'from' depends on, such as the size of the office. |
| A tour video, either stored in the deck or inserted as an online video | The video on The Space page, or a link to where it is posted | In PowerPoint, File, Info shows under Optimize Media Compatibility whether each video is embedded or linked. An online video plays from its website, so note its web address. Keep the original file of any other video, and play it in the preview on a phone. |
| A map pasted as a screenshot, with the street address typed beneath it | The address as text, with a link that opens it in a map app | Nobody can tap a screenshot for directions. Type the address into the prompt, then tap the map link on your own phone. It should open at your front door, not the middle of town. |
| The theme: six accent colors, a heading font and a body font | The site's colors and type, as a starting point | On the Design tab, open the Variants gallery and choose Colors, then Customize Colors, to see each theme color. View, Slide Master, Fonts, Customize Fonts names the heading and body font. A color chosen for a projector can be too pale for small text, so check body text contrast in the preview. |
| The closing slide: 'Book a tour', a QR code and 'Call Daniel Ortiz, (831) 555-0137' | A Book a tour button on every page, leading to a Contact page | A visitor can't scan a code on the phone they are holding. Scan it yourself to see where it leads, and point the button there if that address still works. Then tap the button on your own phone and check that the call or email reaches Daniel. |
Sort out the deck before it becomes a site.
A deck gets copied for each audience, borrows pictures licensed only for slides, and leans on what you say between clicks. Settle these on a copy of the file before you upload it.
The version made for the public
You may keep an investor deck, a sales deck and copies tailored to single prospects, with a client's logo on the cover and a price quoted only to them. Start from the master sales deck. Revenue, runway and the funding ask belong on no public page.
Stock images licensed for slides only
Pictures and icons added with Insert, Pictures, Stock Images are licensed for use inside Microsoft 365 apps, and Microsoft's support page lists putting them on websites as something not to do. Replace each one with your own photo or one licensed for the web. Check the license of anything found through Online Pictures too.
A short version you already present
Choose Slide Show, Custom Slide Show, Custom Shows to see any saved shows. One called 'Newcomers' or '10-minute version' is a cut of the deck you already chose for strangers. Note the slides it plays and list their numbers in the prompt as the shortlist for the site.
Slides that wait for your next sentence
A slide holding one question, such as 'What if your office came with you?', or a photo that sets up a joke, works because you speak next. On a web page it reads as a riddle. Write its answer into the prompt, or leave the slide out.
An illustrative starting point
A site that makes the pitch without you.
Pages merged from your slides, a menu from your agenda, your deck's colors and fonts, and a way to get in touch where the closing slide was.
Pages, not slides
The four membership slides can read as one Memberships page, and each page can have its own address to send. Nobody has to click through twenty slides to reach the prices.
Sentences where the bullets were
Each bullet you usually explain aloud can carry the sentence you would have said, once you put it in the prompt. A visitor who lands on Memberships from a search result can then follow it without hearing the talk.
Your deck's look, adjusted for phones
The site can start from the deck's accent colors, fonts and photos, so it resembles the slides your clients have already seen. Ask for a darker shade wherever a projector color is hard to read on a small screen.
A next step where 'Questions?' was
Ask for a Book a tour button in place of the QR code and the thank-you slide. A button that opens a call or an email works on a one-page site. Saving each request, or sending a confirmation email, makes the site an app with data. Send yourself a test request and read the email before sharing the site.

Good questions.
How is this different from embedding my slides on a web page?
An embedded deck sits in a slide viewer: visitors click through in your order, each slide shrinks to fit a phone, and all of them share one address. Here the slides are raw material for separate pages whose text wraps to the screen. To put the slides online as they are, get embed code from PowerPoint for the web instead.
My deck has 30 slides. How many pages should the site have?
Usually far fewer. A sales deck like the Kestrel Works sample tells one story in a handful of parts: what you offer, the prices, the space itself, who you are and how to reach you. Each part can become a page. Start from the agenda or the sections, merge the slides under each, and add pages later if visitors keep asking for more.
Will the website look like my slides?
It can share their colors, fonts and photos, but not each slide's layout. A slide is a fixed canvas, 16:9 unless someone changed it, while a web page has to fit every width from a phone to a wide monitor. Name the slide that best shows your brand in the prompt, then compare the preview with it.
Should my speaker notes go on the site?
Only what a stranger needs, rewritten for reading. Notes are written to be said beside a picture: 'as you can see on the left', 'this is the view from the loft'. Keep the fact behind each cue, such as what a dedicated desk includes, and put it in your prompt as a plain sentence. Keep reminders meant only for you out of the prompt and out of the copy you upload.
Which plan does the site need?
A site that only presents the deck's content is a one-page site, which Free publishes: a section for each part of the deck, photos, a menu and a button that opens a call or an email. Several pages at their own addresses, a tour request form that saves entries or email sent by the site make it an app, which needs a paid plan to go live, and a custom domain needs Pro. Send a test request before you share the site.
Can the site use the web address printed on my closing slide?
Yes, if you own that domain: Pro includes custom domains. A QR code printed on flyers and slides keeps pointing at the address it encodes, so settle early whether that address becomes the site's domain. Before you share the site, scan one of those codes and check where it lands.
The deck changes before every pitch. How do I keep the site current?
Let the deck vary and keep the site as the public version. Sales decks change for each audience; the site should change only when the offer does. Edit prices and photos on the site in Studio and publish again. An upload is a snapshot, so treat a reworked deck as a fresh upload and compare its pages with the live ones before publishing.
