I think is a very valid criticism, paying $1500 a year for a static site with a like button is odd. Hosting this site on something like Netlify would literally be free while also satisfying every other requirements save for the heart button. Even the Netlify pro tier would only be about $200 a year for a small site.
- silicon2401 6y agohow would you compare using Netlify to AWS? could you get started on Netlify once you just buy a domain name?
- Etheryte 6y agoNetlify is absurdly easy to get started on, it supports many static site generators etc out of the box. For my personal site it was a few clicks and no manual config required. Since you mentioned domains, you can even buy domains through them with auto-renew etc. I haven't used it for any large scale projects, but for small things, their batteries included approach is great.
- silicon2401 6y agothat's really helpful to know, I'll make sure to check it out. thanks!
- sirdavid 6y agoAWS has Amplify which is essentially their version of Netlify. It's surprisingly easy to spin up and is pretty cheap (not obviously not free like Netlify is).
