Fly.io can host instances of whatever (any kind of Docker container, so Ghost and Wordpress aren’t hard) and has a good free tier. You can also use Netlify or GitHub Pages or Cloudflare Pages for free static hosting, if you don’t need anything special. Wordpress.com is pretty low effort. I think all of these can do custom domains in their free tier.

I’m a big fan of Netlify and Gifhub pages, finding 11ty was a huge win: https://www.11ty.dev/

Netlify offer a version of 11ty that includes a hosted CMS editing tool and it’s all hosted for free for basic access.

Use this as the Netlify CMS optimised version of 11ty as your starter: https://www.netlifycms.org/
