So far I've used just Github pages and Netlify, tho I've heard of other alternatives like Firebase, Vercel, Google Cloud Storage, Surge and Render.
Where do you host your static sites and why?

Thanks for sharing! 🙏❤
in my case DigitalOcean
If you don't even have a minute to spare, use Surge, takes about 1 second.
+1 for Netlify. It automatically updates when I push to github.
Generally, I host my static websites on Netlify it is nice and quite easy for the folders present in the root of the repo. Actually I wanted to know how to host the monorepos(A GitHub Repo consisting of more than one folder and each folder consisting of static websites and being hosted) I even went through the documentation but I couldn't do so if anyone did it before or any link to do so with better examples please do comment
AWS S3 is the way to go for static sites.
Completely free and, as a bonus you can start dealing with AWS which in my opinion would become (already is ?) a must on web dev pretty soon.
;-)
I host on Netlify, AWS S3 and GitHub pages :D
Firebase - its easier to deploy esp my angular applications
I use netlify for SPA, i love how it build and host my app just by git push
Same here, one of the features I love most 👍
I have been putting a lot of my static sites on render. It's free and you're able to attach a subdomain with a cert. That is something that isn't very common.
That feature could come in handy in many cases, agree 😉👍
vercel bro, smooth is af
On Cloudflare Workers Sites.
I've hosted everything through Netlify for a long time and have always been impressed by their service. Tools like Forms, Functions and Identity are super useful to me too.
Do you use any paid plan or stick with the free tier? 👀
Because of being a very early adopter and for the my being an advocate of Jamstack for years, I am on a "friend of Netlify" account - so some features that would be charged are free. However, I don't think much of anything that I have done so far would have hit any of the usage caps.
Amplify. It's nifty. A few thoughts of mine to kindly share: it brings a CI/CD pipeline to the table; Amplify gives the static files to CloudFront, which is like a CDN, to host; and Amplify simplifies the auto-configuration of SSL and DNS. 👍
DigitalOcean recently added Netlify like App hosting - you just point it at a repo and it does the rest. Static Sites are free and other things that need a server process running (node apps, etc.) require a mini droplet type purchase. The one project I tested like this they put me on an "XS" plan that was like $5-6 / month.
Personally I use Netlify / Vercel though for just about everything.
Hey! Could you send me the link for the digital ocean hosting? I didn't know DO had a free service. Really interested to see what they offer
Yeah no problem. It's currently in beta, but it's seems pretty nice already.
