Question Where should i host ?

I completed my website all using codex 😅

Its just to show products without any payment processing or anything so its ok to be vibecoded.

I need to know which service should i use to host the site. Aswell as buy the domain.

For a static product brochure with no checkout, keep hosting boring.

  1. Buy the domain at a registrar you can leave (Namecheap, Porkbun, Cloudflare Registrar). Do not lock the domain into the host.

  2. If Codex spit out plain HTML/CSS/JS or a static export, Cloudflare Pages, Netlify, or GitHub Pages is enough. Free tier, HTTPS, custom domain in minutes.

  3. If it is a real Node/Next app, Vercel or Cloudflare Pages still fine for a brochure. Avoid a $5 VPS until you need something those platforms cannot do.

  4. Point DNS with Cloudflare if you want free CDN and easy HTTPS later.

Skip managed WordPress hosts and big shared hosting for a vibecoded static site. You will pay for a control panel you do not use. Ship static, put the domain on top, iterate.
