How much should this cost per month in AWS billing for a small static website?
2 comments

Of course that depends on what kinds of assets you serve and how many hits you get, but to provide a ballpark, I had a small personal site with few media assets on S3, and it consistently cost me US$0.12 per month. I think once it cost me 14 cents and I thought, "Wow, I must've been popular last month!"

I didn't run analytics so I can't say how many hits it got, but traffic was probably fairly average for a personal site.

Less then $1/month if you've got low traffic. I haven't used this, but I have this type of setup for a static site that uses Hugo.

- S3 costs: $0.10/month

- Route53: $0.50/month ($0.50 per hosted zone)

S3 costs could be lower - I have other buckets with stuff that count towards my cost.
