I agree with dirktheman here if we're talking about hosting a non-static website. Getting setup with EC2 is a huge pain if you don't know what you are doing. I really like Heroku for simple apps, but something like Linode makes a lot of sense if you wanna have more control over the server. But I also agree with the parent comment about AWS S3 for static website. If you are setting up a static website with just HTML and CSS, S3 is the way to go. I do this for my homepage and it was very easy to setup and costs me about $0.52/month. Added benefits are that you can use Cloudfront for CDN which also offers HTTPS. Some guides: Example: Setting Up a Static Website Using a Custom Domain
