You know, static hosting works really great on Amazon S3, as long as you don't need a .htaccess file. On all of my jekyll sites I use S3 now and there's even a jekyll-s3 gem that makes pushing your site up to S3 painless. The nice thing about using S3 is you don't have to wait for Heroku instance start up if it's not a high traffic site.

- jvc26 14y agoThe only issue with S3 I've found is the lack of naked domain support, so you need another service for redirects to your *.domain.tld.
- ejdyksen 14y agoIf you register your domain through NameCheap and use their DNS hosting, HTTP redirects from naked domains are included.
