I use Hugo and I host my blog out of an AWS S3 bucket.
Pros:
- Cheap.
- Static and small. Hugo lets me really make everything tiny.
- Learned more about AWS.
Cons:
- A lot of work because I had to setup Route 53, CloudFront, Certificate Manager and S3.
- Learning about the permission model and setting up an IAM user with right permissions.
- Figuring out how Route 53, Certificate Manager and CloudFront work together so I could have SSL.
Reading this back, my pros and cons list sounds ridiculous.
