Web game hosting questions

I am working on a new web game, which for several reasons needs to be hosted elsewhere.   Does this rule out creating an itch entry for it?  Or is it possible to embed externally hosted games into an itch game page?

Yes, you can, with an index.html that loads your game in an iframe.

Thanks.  I'll give that a go.   As a follow up question do you know if it's quite common to do this... and not against any guidelines?

It's not against any guidelines. Just don't try to deceive people. No idea how common it is.

No deception involved. I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't doing anything that is discouraged in the guidelines as I'd never shared a browser game here before. Thanks for you help. The game is here : https://danblack.itch.io/wordbull
