I tried netlify and just leaving the website on my tab made it useless lol. Is github pages any better? Would it be better to just buy a domain and add my html there?
I switched to cloudflare. thoughts?
Hi. Can you please explain your issue a bit more. I don’t know what you mean by ‘tab’.
Netlify will charge “credits” if you’re just visiting your own page lol.
buying a domain is a separate thing from hosting your site, unless you get some kind of package deal
if it’s a static site you can use github pages, and if you have your own domain you can use it using github pages as hosting for the site
I ended up using cloudflare because github pages doesn’t want you to have some sort of bussiness using their service. Is that one good too? Those on forums seem to like it. It’s very generous and github seems like they have more limits.
github pages allow only for a static front end site, no backend, the benefits are that it’s free and automatically deployed from github repository. Cons, no backend
That sounds good but I didn’t wanna showcase my code publicly.
I think the post should at least say the limitations netlify has. It’s a wee bit misleading. There was also a scandal where a developer owed $100,000 to netlify.
