I'm looking to host a website for an organisation I run. I'm very familiar with WordPress and somewhat familiar with Drupal, but am highly technical and can learn other technologies. I do feel that a WordPress-type crm might be overkill, as I am not looking for user interaction on the site. I'm good with html, js, and css, so would not be opposed to a barebones provider.

Basically, who is everyone using, and what considerations went into that decision?

I have crossposted this question on .ml, as well, but can't properly link each on the other.

Didn't know about !webdev@programming.dev thanks!

I thought about asking !selfhosted@lemmy.world, but didn't feel it fully fit there, since I'm not specifically asking about self-hosted service or app, but, instead, about a standard .com (or whatever tld).

I checked the rules for ask Lemmy, and didn't see anything that would suggest that this question wouldn't fit, but I would also understand if it didn't fully fit under the "open discussion question" rule. Basically, I completely understand and don't hold it against the mods if it were to be taken down haha

The vps solution might be where I end up. But $5 vps? Which ones are those?
