Alright, so $560 for a soda instead of a $5 soda. > P.S. You could host it on Github for even less. I'm not going to attempt to save an inconsequential amount of money by hosting a site I'm hosting on another host. But that strategy probably wouldn't end well. The $560 site uses 25x more bandwidth than Github's fairly low soft limit of 100GB (https://help.github.com/articles/what-is-github-pages/ https://help.github.com/articles/what-is-github-pages/) and is likely above the 1GB site limit (which is also just the sum of any changes ever, because git) of a Github pages site. From seeing who their CDN provider is (one that charges basically the same CDN rates as AWS), my guess is that Github is paying a lot more for CDN transit than I am. It's perhaps not a coincidence that the 100GB BW limit was quietly introduced after they started using the CDN.
