Last I checked, Express is extremely slow and will significantly impact your SEO if you're a content business and doesn't really scale very well if you get huge amounts of traffic like I have.
These days I use Go, Deno or Crystal which is much faster.
For hosting I recommend Cloudflare Pages, Vercel, (maybe Netlify) and Render.

- luastoned 3y agoExpress by itself isn't slow at all, neither does if affect your SEO. You completely ignored OP's question, lol.
