Is Render's Static Site the best deal?

Static Sites · $0/mo

Best in class

Render's free Static Sites tier is genuinely hard to beat for basic static hosting. No comparable free alternatives were found in the search results. However, watch out for hidden costs: bandwidth overages (~$0.15/GB), persistent disk storage ($0.25/GB/month), and per-domain fees ($0.25/month each beyond 2 included) can add up quickly if your site grows.

Before you switch

Bandwidth overage rate of ~$0.15/GB is not officially documented; confirm current pricing before committing to high-traffic sites
Persistent disk storage at $0.25/GB/month applies if you use any file storage beyond the static site itself
Additional custom domains cost $0.25/month each, which is cheap but can accumulate with many domains
Compare against Netlify Free and Vercel Free tiers if you need more generous bandwidth allowances or better overage pricing transparency
Render's free tier is tied to Hobby workspace; verify workspace limits and upgrade costs if you scale beyond hobby use
