What’s the best place to host a product catalogue website?
Asked by

I've finished building a website that showcases products, but it doesn't need payments, user accounts, or other complex features. Much of it was generated with coding assistance, and now I'm trying to choose a hosting provider and buy a custom domain. What hosting services would you recommend, especially if the site is static or only lightly dynamic?
Answers
For a small project, low-cost providers such as Hostinger or other managed hosts may be convenient. AWS can also be inexpensive for a very small site, but it generally takes more configuration.

Cloudflare Pages, Firebase Hosting, and similar services offer free tiers. You usually purchase the domain from a registrar, then point its DNS records at the hosting service.

If it’s a straightforward static catalogue, Cloudflare Pages or GitHub Pages should work well and can be free. You can deploy from a code repository and connect a custom domain separately.

The right choice depends on the technology stack. If the site has a backend or server-side features, make sure the host supports that runtime instead of treating it like a static site.

Before publishing, check the generated code for exposed API keys, confirm that any dynamic features actually work on the chosen host, and test the catalogue carefully on mobile devices.
