Where do you host your landing page for PH launches?

Hey Makers 🙋‍♂️ I am about to build a landing page for a future product. I guess there will be a traffic peak the day of the launch, and I was wondering where would you recommend to host the landing page to avoid any latency? For more context at first glance, it will be a static website running on Jekyll. Does Github pages will be enough? Is Heroku not too heavy solution, by adding some Dynos the time of the launch? I am interested in Netlify too, any feedback? Many thanks!

Hi Ahmed, I have found Netlify to be a great tool. It is extremely simple to use and they have some very cool features that you can add to your site without having to write additional code. They also make use of their own CDN to ensure low latency. I have not used Jekyll before but I am sure deploying to Netlify should be do-able with a few easy steps. Hermann

Wix is decent if you want to get something up fast.
