I'm a big fan of the GitHub Pages + Jekyll + Cloudflare "stack" for getting a fast, cheap (free, usually) website or blog up and running.

If you're strong in a particular ecosystem you can switch Jekyll out for something like Hugo, but Jekyll continues to be rock solid for my purposes, and there's usually a guide or plugin for additional features.

Why bother with cloudflare here?
I just setup a new site using Cloudflare Pages + Hugo, that's the entire stack. It's free and great.
I'll usually want to use a custom domain, like carrot.blog, in front of a GitHub Pages site. But it's not strictly necessarily if you're OK with something.github.io
DNS hosting?
