I have mine in Heroku for about two years and is totally free! You can have even teams (up to 5 members) and continuously deliver apps from dev to staging and production. Also, you can use custom domains and git.
Very cool alternative to AWS S3 static website hosting. The 125k free Netlify function invocations per month open up a lot of options for dynamic actions for a static site, like a contact form. The same thing can be accomplished in AWS with API Gateway and Lambda but each of those services has a cost, albeit not much if you don't get much traffic. Thanks a lot. I'm sold
I cannot believe how easy it was to set up the netlify thingy...I have been scratching my head for over a week now and working on getting money but lol this will save me cause I can now have people review my site before I actually deploy it like we do in the responsive portfolio course you have (*card got declined cause I have insufficient funds)
Wow! Thanks so much, I'm watching this 2 yrs from when this vid was published, and the method works great! I really appreciate it! keep up the good work
There is a firebase too. And it might be not only for static pages. You can use Firebase functions to auto generate pages like regular server. Functions are for free. Each month you got 1-2 milions free function calls (above it cost about 0.4 USD per milion. Really cheap). It works like it's turning on in one second mini server and generate what ever you want and turn's off.
@@eduardooliveira14133 nice, I actually deleted my website, but now I have another one, the blog sute was terrible, but now I'm kinda proud of my site, since i left this comment i started using scss instead of css and typescript instead of JavaScript, it's really fun

Github pages are 100GB bandwidth limit per month. So shrink as much as you can for hosting files and images. You can't shrink codes but you can for files hosted through github to others like google.
If it's only 100Gigs of Bandwidth, then is it worth learning html to build a website from scratch? I'm seriously looking into building my own brand and I feel like designing my own website will definitely draw traffic. Or should I just use WordPress and call it a day :/
Is there a way to set up a custom email and email forwarding with Netlify? It would be really great to switch over but that might be a dealbreaker if it’s not an option.
I was looking for a website host! Discovering Github gives me hope and then there is Netify. Questions: -Can we suspend a project? If yes, for how long? Does the project deletes itself when let it for too long? -Is the size limit still 100Mb? -How many separated sites can we deploy? (I plan to combine many sites as one, like a library) -Is there a difference between GitHub and Netify? Are they "working together"? -Do we need to join GitHub?
This is actually very good for a personal website. Just don't buy the domain from them, it can get pretty expensive. Get a domain from GoDaddy then host it on Netlify, for instance.
Just a little suggestion - NEVER use free hosting if you are serious with your sites! Free hosts are bad or turn bad soon, always!! Go for some real and proven hosting like did.li/a2hosting66off you can host several blog sites there, it is one of the fastest and still incredibly cheap
I know you said deploying a website through gethub first gives you version control as opposed to uploading the entire website folder every time you have an update. Would this still be the case if you have graphic updates as well? Which would you say is more streamlined and easier? Thank you for everything.
Do you mean doing graphic updates on a webpage, like changing images and the like? Then yup, I'd still go the git way. So muc hsafer of a way to work, and nice to be able to track all the changes really easily.

Hi Kevin..Thanks for the info. I am currently using WordPress free version and no hosting. But I realize that my WordPress blog is not index in google search engine. Do you think I need to upgrade with a hosting plan? Netlify looks amazing, if I create an account with Netlify, will my be website be indexed?
I've been looking for a free web hosting service for quite a while just so I can show my projects to other people faster. Thank you a lot, keep up the good work.
you can deploy more intelligent pages to heroku for free. Just note that heroku will refresh the state of your application after awhile so it's important you only use it for RESTful applications only.
I guess what what I am trying to say... is that I would like to use a platform with free hosting, with the hope of being index in Google search engine. Of course I will definitely upgrade after. Thanks in advance for any advice offered. Most appreciated!
Tends to be excellent when I run tests on my own page. They use http2, will automatically optimize images for you, and runs off a CDN. The only real comparison with other services I found is this one, which mentioned it performs well but occasionally runs into issues, but it was done 18 months ago, I'd love to see something more recent: www.savjee.be/2017/10/Static-website-hosting-who-is-fastest/
Do your searches and come back to Kevin's channel and you are probably going to find the answer you were looking for! I was looking to see if I can build a site w/ a user friendly interface for a blog. Seems like NetlifyCMS is the answer!
Hope Netlify works well for you :). Depending on what you need from your host, you may not have to go after a paid one later. Netlify is a really good host, but if you need more than just static sites, then yup.
Can you upload videos either through links to another video sharing site or straight from your pc to your site if it's static or does it have to be dynamic?
This is great! I was just searching this up like two days and din't find anything like this. Just wondering though, by "static website", can it work with NodeJs or React? because those are still just javascript right? I hope it works with especially node...Thanks again
Gitlab pages is better than github pages because you can use CI output as your site instead of just the git repo content. This means you can use any static site generator.

My father, a computer programmer for 30 years rents servers from pair.com .He then installs WordPress and uses the plug-in Woo-Commerce. You can still change everything like HTML, CSS and JavaScript because your hosting with Pair, not WordPress.

I dragged my VSC folder in, it published, and all I get is: "Page Not Found Looks like you've followed a broken link or entered a URL that doesn't exist on this site. Back to our site" Looks like you'll have to have an index.html file and it needs to be in the root directory for this to work. Thanks for the video on this though it really is what I needed at the moment. Thanks
So if I use netlify for hosting my website and github to deploy updates, what solution is outthere for my email using my custom domain that is free? I currently host on namecheap which is about $34/yr. If I switch, I will still need to pay for having my email..
I'm new to programming. What kind of files are needed to "create" a website? So like the what kind of files need to be in the folder that is uploaded to netlify?
I really appreciate this video, I still not understand how to specifically host my website once I charged files on site, could you please make another video?

Hello there, I'm getting trouble into deploying my website - it says it's been deployed but then when I try to access it, it says "Looks like you've followed a broken link or entered a URL that doesn't exist on this site." Can someone help me? Thanks!
Hi Kevin! Thanks a lot for your enourmous useful video! One question: I didn't understand why doesn't work my jquery slider and tabs in my project? (I used CDN way to jquery library)
I wish I could help there, but I'm not sure :\ It has nothing to do with Netlify, as that's just client-side JS doing a few things on the page. Check the console for errors, that might help you narrow it down.
Very good tutorial :) I have a quick question. I've set up the website through netlify but when the pages load the image do not. Is there a certain way the images must be in the folder hierarchy? Right now ive got the main folder for my website and inside this is the index.html and a folder called pictures with all the image in it. How should this be done correctly. Thanks
Kevin, I am actually having a problem dragging my folder on the page, it won't accept my folder is there any way you can help me fix that cause I am facing lot of stress hosting my websites. thank you
yea, cuz they're all hackers that want to use small hosting companies for spam and hacking. We had to block India completely from out servers. Mean nasty selfish hacker scum bags
Haaaa !!! What ?? And prove my point for me ya fucking loser wannabe hacker with zero subs, zero skills, zero friends and no life ??? Sure buddy. Go back to your Live support telephone scams so you can buy a new goat. 😂
Once you upload something you've got the copyright to it, as long as you can show you were the first to upload it. Obviously if it's for your brand you'll want to take extra measures, and laws will be different in every country, but in general, from what I understand, that's pretty standard
Hey Kevin! Just run into this video and Im starting an eCommerce website. Do you have any recomendations of affortable hostting and domain site? Thank you
Hi, First of all thanks for introducing this awesome method. I was a bit curious about the safety, is it safe to upload it to such a domain, because that domain I deployed into is not owned by me, I just want to use for testing. Will I face any copyright issues when i launch the website in the future? Thanks in advance.
Could you also use this to showcse websites on a portfolio? For example, make your portfolio website, and then put some links in there that link to projects, also uploaded on netlify, so its not just a png image but a real working portfolio piece people can click through?
Hi I have a question please, so if I upload my e commerce website to here, with front end code and back end code, does that mean I still recieve my payments and the users shipping info, or do I need to host it from my own pc to be able to recieve that information
do yo know that you can also try www.bluehost.com/track/bluehostagent/ , it very cheap and amazing, it a one of the best places to host your website...... it better off though , try now and thank me later
Could you do it by installing Windows Server on a VM and host your site using IIS Server and make it publicly accessible from the Internet? Is that safe? I mean in general
Hi for some reason my personal website is not reading: 1 html file and 1 css file.. I dropped them into a repository in GIT, but still I get the following error: "Looks like you've followed a broken link or entered a URL that doesn't exist on this site." You know how to fix this?
It does uses pictures from my downloads, maybe that is the reason, that there is no link to my pc anymore (I'm all new to this) so how do I link these to images into a separate folder in GIT?
I have mine in Heroku for about two years and is totally free! You can have even teams (up to 5 members) and continuously deliver apps from dev to staging and production. Also, you can use custom domains and git.
Heroku is awesome, but overkill for simple things :). For web apps though, it's great :D
Doesn't heroku free hosting has a downtime slot everyday when your website goes to sleep.and can't be acessed
Does it? I've used it to host a discord bot I coded in JavaScript.
i've been using netlify for testing things and i love it even after 1 year of using it
Me too

netlify was fairly limited. you cant send ajax to other server.
Wow! it's awesome. Thank you so much for share this. I have a question. How can I edit my uploaded files here?? Please help me.
Drag the folder back on and it'll update it automatically. Or of you hook it up via GitHub when you push to master it'll update it
@@KevinPowell Thank you
thank you for the information Kevin...
No problem :)
A personal portfolio website can be static right?
Once you upload your website does Netlify cover you with a copyright or you need to provide it by your self?
Once you upload something you've got the copyright to it, as long as you can show you were the first to upload it.
Obviously if it's for your brand you'll want to take extra measures, and laws will be different in every country, but in general, from what I understand, that's pretty standard
It hurts knowing you wouldn't get to see this but ill say it anyway. If not for you I would have given up on web dev, thanks allot
very good info and overview...appreciate it
Hey Kevin! Just run into this video and Im starting an eCommerce website. Do you have any recomendations of affortable hostting and domain site? Thank you
Or for free! Hahaha
Catalina F lifetime.hosting for hosting and Google domains for a domain name is cheapest.
I just dragged my folder containing my html files + css file + images and it didn't work. I'm getting a 404 "page not found" error.
Celebrated Video! Very glad I checked it out.
Thank U but i have been waiting to get the file uploaded for about 5 minutes and its still saying uploading … Can you pls reply me ?❤️
Thank you Kevin!
Abundant Video!I really love it! It assisted me a lot!
Well put!
Do you still use this today? Also, unlike github, does this support back end?
Hi, First of all thanks for introducing this awesome method. I was a bit curious about the safety, is it safe to upload it to such a domain, because that domain I deployed into is not owned by me, I just want to use for testing. Will I face any copyright issues when i launch the website in the future? Thanks in advance.
It's safe for all that 👍
Netlify is a very reputable company
DAMN, THANKS SO MUCH! i searcched for free hosting for days and they all seem very unreliable.. this IS the answer :)
acab yamum check out simplesilo.app it was built to provide free static web hosting. Hope it helps
Can i host a website on netlify where I have paypal button linked to my account because i want people to buy something?
Could you also use this to showcse websites on a portfolio? For example, make your portfolio website, and then put some links in there that link to projects, also uploaded on netlify, so its not just a png image but a real working portfolio piece people can click through?
No reason why not!
Hi I have a question please, so if I upload my e commerce website to here, with front end code and back end code, does that mean I still recieve my payments and the users shipping info, or do I need to host it from my own pc to be able to recieve that information
Yea I've wanted to know that too!!
Good question. I'd be curious too.
No it's for static website
When i upload it says that i am searching for a broken link. Any help would be appreciated.
Same
the first page that's loaded needs to be index.html
do yo know that you can also try www.bluehost.com/track/bluehostagent/ , it very cheap and amazing, it a one of the best places to host your website...... it better off though , try now and thank me later
how long this site will be on the website? static hosting means we can access that site 1 month or more
Could you do it by installing Windows Server on a VM and host your site using IIS Server and make it publicly accessible from the Internet? Is that safe? I mean in general
You don't even need a windows server. I'm hosting my website from my own PC, running normal windows
Im learning HTML and I added an html document and it didnt work for me :(
The home page has to be index.html
I knew my man Kevin Powell was Canadian as soon as he said "out". 😄
Haha
Hi for some reason my personal website is not reading: 1 html file and 1 css file.. I dropped them into a repository in GIT, but still I get the following error: "Looks like you've followed a broken link or entered a URL that doesn't exist on this site." You know how to fix this?
It does uses pictures from my downloads, maybe that is the reason, that there is no link to my pc anymore (I'm all new to this) so how do I link these to images into a separate folder in GIT?
Wow great content thank you very much... please also tell me the software you use to record your screen
