I built a website using Laravel and it's connected to a MySQL database. I'm looking for recommendations on where I can deploy it. Is there a free option available that I can try out for a limited time?

You can deploy your Laravel site on nearly any web server that supports PHP and MySQL. If you're just starting out, I highly recommend using a managed hosting service since they typically offer better security and ease of use for beginners. Check for hosting providers in your area that support SSH access, which will help you with configuration later on.
You might want to make it clear that the host should support not just PHP and MySQL, but also SSH connectivity for easier setup. Also, I'd suggest checking out the official Laravel deployment documentation to get a good grasp of the best practices!
