For my last project for a new business website, I just used Github pages w/ Cloudflare for SSL, all free.
Because the site needed a unique brand look n' feel, I opted out of Jekyll and used Foundation 6 as a base and node-sassed my styles with npm scripts and custom svg:s. For cache-busting I run hashmark with postbuild. Then I just write HTML.
Development is easy, things work nice, site is very fast and it looks great.
Moral of the story: starting with just static HTML and CSS is the right choice a lot of the time. Don't complicate things before you need to. And when the need to, only make dynamic those parts that can't be static.
