Where do you host your static sites?

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?

Have a look at ionos.com/hosting/deploy-now and subscribe for free. You can find more details here: docs.ionos.space/

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 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 πŸ˜‰πŸ‘
