First post! I wanted to created my own website for a long time. I purchased this domain a while back. Originally I wanted to create a website from scratch and host it on AWS. Thought it would be a great learning experience to learn frontend + AWS console.

I first created a static website and hosted on S3 bucket.

It wasn’t super interesting so I scrapped that and decided to try out their CodeDeploy.

I felt AWS was holding my hand too much so I scrapped that and decided to host a web app on their Ec2 instance.

Didn’t felt like I was learning frontend development much and I was getting charged $$ for hosting.

Someone recommended me to SquareSpace and it seem to be the best option. It’s cost less overall and all I had to do was paid for the domain transfer. They even added the ssl certificate to my domain. I’m in no way of promoting/sponsoring SquareSpace. It’s just I realized I wanted to focus on creating content more.
