Spinal CMS

There are many options available for hosting a static website, and the best choice will depend on your specific needs and budget. Here are a few providers that offer hosting for static websites, along with some pros and cons for each. For example, not all provide Git integration out-of-the-box. Which means extra work from your side to get that buttery-smooth publishing (push-to-deploy) workflow (that also makes Spinal so magical to use).
