Free-For-Dev also has a nice collection

This post is just a reinvention of that

Recently switched from GitHub Pages to the free tier of Azure StaticWebApps. It provides a lot more configuration options (like http return headers for instance cache-control which is relevant for your lighthouse score)

Might be cool to do a follow up article to compare the options

I have tried it but I don't like it because it don't let you to use a custom domain

Max Hamulyák • Jun 13 '22

I am using it with my domain, kaylumah.nl so not sure what you mean there?

Also W3School provides a small space, a portfolio or something similar. For new web developers ready to create their first site. Browse W3Schools with ads, Build static sites, 1 space, 100 MB storage, 100 MB data / month, 500 requests / month, w3spaces.com subdomain, SSL certificate

Thanks for providing a longer list with options, that is certainly helpful.

Could you also provide a list with free/low budget hosters in Europe? I am from the continent of GDPR and would like to keep my homepage save of NSA and economic barriers (should there be another crazy president).

I don't know how the AWS Is provide the free hosting,
It's only for 1 year as fresh account with t2.micro ec2.

So it's only for limited time we can not considered as free.

Please correct me if I am wrong

Infinity free ain't good. Better to go with other cloud ones

Kam • Jun 13 '22

You can add Cyclic.sh

Gnanasundar Gopalakrishnan • Jun 14 '22

Heroku is also great place for personal projects :)

Andrew Baisden • Jun 14 '22

Yes I noticed its missing from the list too 😂

Tip Season • Jun 12 '22

Hashnode is a great place too

Cheshire • Jun 12 '22

This platform is pretty neat too, it's trying to be a modern Geocities neocities.org/

Jihed Kdiss • Jun 26 '22

The problem with firebase is that you can't freely choose you website domain even if it looks like domain.web.app clean and simple, yet the domain is auto generated otherwise it's gonna be a great option!

Lukasz Czapiewski • Jun 12 '22

Fleek.co does ICP hosting for free (ICP is a cryptocurrency) which is quite cool

Alex Ivanovs • Jun 30 '22

I've done similar article before, but also included table data for what each provider has to offer on their free plan,

alwaysdata.com too! (french-based, free tier, cool custom interface for managing projects and websites...)

K-Sato • Jun 13 '22

nice!! U can also use S3 for hosting.(Personally never tried it tho)

Randall • Jun 13 '22

It is pretty oldschool but freehostia.com/. I've been hosting a site there free for like 15 years. Can't believe they're still in business, but they are. No complaints.
