A .onion site lives on the Tor network. It is reachable only through the Tor Browser, it hides where the server is, and it hides who is visiting. This guide shows how to put one online with Impreza without handing over your identity.
What you get
- A v3 .onion address, the modern long-format hidden service
- Hosting that is offshore and DMCA ignored, so the service stays up
- No KYC signup, no email required, and crypto payment
The steps
Get a server
Spin up an offshore VPS or use our dedicated Tor Hosting. Sign up with no KYC (a unique client ID and recovery token if you prefer no email) and pay in crypto.
Put your service online
Deploy your site or app to the server as usual: a catalog app, a Docker image, a Dockerfile or a git repo. Get it answering on a local port first.
Add the .onion hidden service
You do not need to hand-edit torrc files. Ask the Impreza agent to add a Tor v3 .onion address to your deployment, and it wires the hidden service to your service for you. You get back the .onion hostname to share.
Keep it private
Serve assets from the same origin and avoid third-party fonts, analytics and CDNs that would leak metadata. Keep the content self-contained so nothing points back to the clearnet.
With the Impreza MCP your AI assistant can provision the server and publish the .onion address end to end. See the documentation to connect it.
A hidden service hides the server, not a leaky app. Avoid clearnet redirects, external scripts and anything that phones home.
