Edge static hosting
Static and full-stack sites served from Cloudflare's network, with no bandwidth charge.
The catch: A site cannot hold more than 20,000 files or any single file over 25 MiB on the free plan.
Static + serverless
Git-based hosting for static and Jamstack sites, with functions, forms and edge features.
The catch: Every production deploy costs 15 credits, so about 20 deploys a month uses the whole free allowance before any traffic.
Non-profit pages
Static hosting from a Codeberg repository, run by a German non-profit.
The catch: New users must use the new git-pages setup, which needs a webhook; the old v2 server is closed to new users.
Repo static hosting
Static sites built by GitLab CI/CD and served from a GitLab project.
The catch: Builds run on the shared 400 CI/CD minutes a month, which other pipelines also use.
Static hosting
Static hosting from the team behind Kinsta, deployed from Git.
The catch: Only static sites are free; app hosting starts at $5 a month after a trial.
CLI static hosting
Publishes any local folder as a website with one terminal command.
The catch: Redirects, rewrites and password protection are only on the $30 Pro plan.
Check a name, set up DNS and test the site once it is live. All free, in the browser.
