5 Ways To Host Your Applications

1. Surge

Surge is a cloud platform for hosting static websites, which is extremely simple to use but offers customization options for those who need them.

2. Firebase

Firebase Hosting is a fully managed hosting service for static and dynamic content as well as microservices.

The service is backed by SSD storage and a global CDN (content delivery network).

3. Vercel

Vercel is a hosting platform for frontend frameworks. After you create a pr it will automatically create an environment for you so that the team can check it before merging it. So useful!

4. Github Pages

GitHub Pages is a static site hosting service that takes HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files straight from a repository on GitHub, optionally runs the files through a build process and publishes a website

5. Netlify

Netlify is a web hosting and automation platform that accelerates development productivity

I deployed most of my projects to Netlify because it is so easy to use, it is supporting custom domains, and much more.

I've used Firebase and Vercel before just that now AWS makes it easier for me as my other APIs database are hosted on AWS. That's my transition from Firebase/Vercel to AWS.
Do check it out! You will be amazed to try out the cool features.

You forgot about Virtual Private Servers (VPS), Heroku, and hosting from your own personal home server (not recommended). So there are at least 8 ways to host your application. You might want to expand your article LOL.

I'm using Github Pages for literarily everything static that doesn't generate much traffic.

Moreover, setting up a custom (sub-)domain is easy if you have access to your domain's DNS records.
