Thanks for posting this! My website is currently down and I'm in the process of fixing it.

  How are you hosting this?
  - tmatthe 6y ago
    HostPapa. I contacted them and they said it was a problem with their server, so I can't do anything about it sadly.
    - brettinternet 6y ago
      Since it looks like it's just GatsbyJS client, may I suggest GitHub Pages?
      - tmatthe 6y ago
        That's a good idea, in the beginning I had no idea how hosting works so I just went with HostPapa, but now I am considering switching.

        If you use gh-pages [1], then it's as simple as `gh-pages -d public`. [1] https://www.npmjs.com/package/gh-pages https://www.npmjs.com/package/gh-pages

        I can highly recommend Github pages, which I use for https://blog.jeaye.com/ https://blog.jeaye.com/ The HN hug of death has never brought it down, since Github handles all of the scaling.

        I actually recommend Gitlab pages. I prefer their allowance of private repos. I made a guide [1] on how to switch from Github to Gitlab pages. I use Gitlab for my static sites and Github for my source.

      Yeah, imho, make something that generates static pages and then you have any host of options with (nearly) infinite scale -- s3/cloudfront, etc. And it's still pretty simple.

  2020 and it’s still takes work to keep a website up, even if it’s simple. I feel your pain.
