SquareSpace is excellent. For a static, informational site, I don't see any reason to build it from scratch, set up hosting, etc. You have more important things to do than reinvent the wheel for a marketing website.

If you insist on doing it yourself, uploading a static site to S3 and putting CloudFront in front of it is incredibly easy, inexpensive, and performant.

For static files, Firebase Hosting is great too. Easier than S3 + CloudFront , just a firebase deploy inside your project. Also, you can undo versions from their dashboard. In addition, easy integration with your domain.
