I think the site looks great and will be very informative for people with a wide range of experience. As a person with something deployed to literally every provider you've listed (and using most of the ancillary tools as well) I'd say you've done a pretty accurate job describing them. EDIT: One enhancement I might suggest is that another way of listing hosting, instead of by $/hr or $/mo might be to suggest an insta…
That's a really nice idea, I like it (and I see other people suggesting something similar). I might add a separate page with some recommendations for specific projects (as you say, like a Wordpress stack, static website, etc.)

#92Fairly disappointing list. No GC in hosting list, even with generous free tier on App Engine, Firebase and other services. No DigitalOcean. No Azure. On e-mail front, no SendGrid and Mailgun, even with their generous free tiers. No Cloudflare. CI as category is ignored. 1&1 makes it, but GoDaddy, Gandi, and others don't.

I did take a look at Azure, but it looks complicated. Probably for someone who has more experience and actually have used it, it's not, but I couldn't easily find how I can get a simple VM, and when I used the calculator for the VM, the price was almost two times more expensive comparing to DigitalOcean or Linode. I see that there are many people using Azure and probably it's a great ecosystem, but I wanted to focus…
