Suggestions for sites that host html webpages

For the last 8 years I’ve used Google Sites to host webpages of cars I’m selling, but as of this month they have changed their format to eliminate html documents so they are useless to me. Any suggestions for an alternative where I can cut and paste an html document and turn it into a webpage with an address I can post online so anyone can see it? Here is an example of one of my pages but I’m not sure anyone else can see it as of Sept. 1^st: 2001 Honda Insight - atikovi2020

You would be better asking the question at a dedicated web host site - Web Hosting Talk - The largest, most influential web hosting community on the Internet

Sample site of mine Queens Park Crewe

Looks nice but it is loaded with advertisements. Too distracting.

You can do this pretty cheap via Amazon AWS S3. S3 stands for Simple Storage Service. I use this storage to offload attachments on my forum to lessen page load time. But it can also be used to host a static website like you have there. Read the following:

It's very easy to create a CNAME via a free Cloudflare account.

How to Set a CNAME for an Amazon S3 Bucket -.: HCWT Snippets :.



This all looks complicated at first, but once you read everything through and through and do it, you'll understand it more.

There are also a couple of FTP clients that can handle S3. I use WinSCP, there is CrossFTP or S3Browser.

S3 Browser looks promising. Since I use WinSCP for my website with traditional file uploading, I don't need to use the S3 function, but when I tried it in WinSCP it seemed very slow so YMMV with each client.

Good luck, any questions ask and I'll try to help.

I should let you know that if you decided to use everyone's favorite WordPress, you absolutely have to secure it down. WP is HIGHLY sought after for attack. There are WP vulnerability crawling bots that look for WP websites and their vulnerabilities. If found they will exploit them. I see this all the time in my Cloudflare log. The bots hit my site that doesn't even use WP, so you know they're not smart enough yet and just craw around looking for WP sites and vulnerabilities.

WordPress is called a CMS (Content Management System). I do use WordPress for a website, but I'd like to explore Drupal. That might be a little more secure. However, in cyberspace there is no such thing as 100% hack proof.

It loaded with add because I have them it doesnt come with a normal site unless you add them to make money

Ok thanks, this might work. Made this blog page with the same html as the link in my first post, 1999 Nissan Altima GXE Two questions. Can the content, text and photos, be made to fill out the whole width of the page like the one in the first post? And can I eliminate the date from the page?

I'll take a closer look, thanks.
