What's the cheapest/easiest option for hosting a static website (with SSL, obvs)?

I already own the domain and have DNS/email managed and don't really want to shift that.

All I find include domain/email/wordpress/... which I don't need, nor want to pay for?

@larsmb #Hugo or #Jekyll or any other static site generator. Small VM to host it in.

I believe #IONOS has really small instances for 1€/month.

#Netcup or #Hetzner have some small and cheap ones too.

@johanneskastl Yeah, as for the static site generator, I'll be going with Zola.
The day I touch Jekyll again out of my own free will I'll be seeking therapy, I really wasn't a fan 😂

@larsmb Fortunately there are lots of them, so I daresay you will find one that fits your needs ..
