Free Hosting Services that I know

Today, I would like to talk about hosting services that are available to upload your site for free. Although there are thousands of services that are giving free, I will share some good services among these which I know. Let’s get started.

Github Pages

Github is a company that hosts code repositories, collections of code for projects. Github has a feature called Github Pages, which makes it easy and free for you to create a multi-file website hosted on yourusername.github.io. GitHub Pages is a static site hosting service that takes HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files directly from a repository on GitHub, optionally runs the files through a build process, and publishes a website. You can see here. When uploading source code, it is necessary to consider whether the source code is safe to be released to the public.

Netlify

Netlify allows you to create a website using the repository on the git platform. You just need to choose the repository and run the deployment command. After the deployment is complete, your site will be live. You can see here.

AWS Free Tier

Amazon Web Services is an integrated provider of cloud-based computing solutions. One of the Services they provide is Web Site Hosting. AWS offers you a one year free account called AWS Free Tier and you can test and use variety of products from AWS like EC2, S3, RDS and so on. I know it is a little bit hard to consume the UI of AWS but it will improve your server administration knowledge. Be sure to test it out. See here for more detail.

Website Builders

There are some other free services that has website builder like wordpress. So you don’t have to write a single line of code and can build your website within minutes. For example wordpress, wix, weebly. But these services might also have pricing features, so they might force you to buy their product by somehow.
