You don't need £4. As long as you can structure your site as a set of static files with interactivity done client side, even if some of the files change every minute or two, you can serve everything for $0 with Cloudflare in front of any free host. I've served 1M pageviews a day for $0 with Cloudflare + App Engine free tier and there's no reason it wouldn't scale to 100M or beyond.

- modeless 5y agoThe nice thing about using Cloudflare in front of a real host is that you can still do dynamic pages. You can instantly purge any file from the Cloudflare cache, so all you have to do is purge anything that changes and your users see the update instantly, while your backend only sees a couple of extra requests. My site updates some data every 10 minutes or so, I don't think that would work with GitHub Pages. Maybe you could do something with Cloudflare Pages combined with Workers, but Workers have a limited free tier. The normal Cloudflare CDN scales to infinity for free.
- goodpoint 5y agoNo thanks. Cloudflare is very harmful to Tor and to user's freedom and privacy in general.
