I recently did a similar project for someone who had a long running site. They wanted to keep all the existing pages so that people's bookmarks would still work (while reducing their hosting fees).

In that case, their site was built in Wordpress, and so I grabbed the html and then posted it on GitHub pages (free static hosting). Then I pointed the domain name to Github from the previous host.

This worked well because they didn't care that it was no longer editable (although it could be hand edited without _that_ much trouble) and they had a strong desire to make it aesthetically identical.

Not sure if there is a huge "website update" component in your situation, but if not, you could probably go a similar route.

Check out https://gdocweb.com/ for this use case. You can generate GitHub Pages sites from Google Docs which means even novices can do that and get the free hosting benefits.
