Jamstack hosting (Next.js, Astro, SvelteKit) with edge CDN, preview deploys and git-based workflow.
The rankings are warming up.
Jamstack platforms (Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, Deno Deploy) deploy static sites generated by Next.js, Astro, SvelteKit, Nuxt or Hugo, distributed via a global edge CDN. Workflow: git push, automatic build, preview deploys per PR, worldwide distribution in < 50 ms. Ideal for marketing sites, tech blogs, documentation, headless e-commerce. Pricing: generous free tier, scale-up via edge functions (workers, serverless).
Shared hosting works fine up to ~10,000 visitors/month. Beyond that, or with heavy plugins, a managed VPS brings performance and stability. For e-commerce shops, a dedicated VPS is recommended from day one.
Managed WordPress (Kinsta, WP Engine, o2switch) costs more but bundles optimised caching, automatic updates, staging and backups - you save time and reduce risk. Worth it as soon as the site is business-critical.
WordPress is the most flexible with a huge ecosystem. Webflow excels at design with integrated hosting. Wix and Squarespace are the simplest but most limited. Pick based on the flexibility/simplicity trade-off you need.
