Hosting

Hey! I am building an app in NextJS for a small company. It is a simple multipage webapp and I am looking for the cheapest places to host it. Vercel and Netlify which I have used for personal projects are $20/month, but the business won't want to pay that at the moment. Any recommendations for cheaper alternatives?

check out fly.io and control plane i also find solutions like google app engine/aws elastic beanstalk to be really cheap, but you might have to do some ops yourself to deploy it (though its still "serverless" so you dont have to manage as much) ultimately though, it would probably end up being cheaper for your company to just use a platform like vercel/fly.io/control plane anyway (they have to pay you too, and your time is worth much more)

I have noticed that using AWS Amplify is very similar to Vercel/Netlify where it deploys from GitHub, sets up your entire environment and you only get charged for what you use. One of my web app costed less than $0.75 USD last month (although it is not really used much). Also, Vercel charges a minimum of $20 because they don't allow commercial projects on their free plan, but Netlify allows small commercial projects on their free starter plan.

I didn't see that Netlify will allow small commercial products, I thought it was only for hobby/testing. I am definitely going that route then. Thank you for responding to this!
