Vercel: Limited build times: The free version allows up to 100 deployments per day with various restrictions, making it easy for normal users to hit the ceiling.

I have been using Vercel for a while now and if used right you don't hit any limitations except for bandwidth if you get more traffic its best to upgrade to accommodate the higher traffic

One potential use case is integrating with a CMS to automatically generate content upon updates. In such scenarios, the build limit can quickly be reached.

Additionally, collaborative projects and real-time display requirements may also frequently trigger the build limit.

This issue can be easily avoided by creating pages on demand and caching them for a specified duration. I have exceeded build limits before and ended up with a massive bill.

To optimize this further:

  • Ensure that these dynamically generated pages are included in a sitemap so search engine crawlers are aware of their existence.
  • Interlink these pages within your site to guide both crawlers and visitors to access them easily. This approach improves discoverability, enhances user experience, and helps manage server load efficiently.
