what's the monetization strategy?

This looks like a nice idea but it's a bit unfortunate about the name clash with https://github.com/rpominov/static-land

Edit: Dear downvoters, normally it'd be unlikely for the name clash to matter, but because these are both JS libraries, both available on npm, it's the difference between `npm install static-land` and `npm install staticland` which would be an easy mistake for anyone to make.

Static site hosting is cheap, and I'm not super interested in competing with other services with per-site costs. staticland is primarily an open source project that I use for my own purposes, and I'm open to building out static site deployment projects that fit a company's specific use case based on staticland.

That is unfortunate! Looks like the two projects were started around the same time, too. I may add a note to the site/readme pointing people to that repo if they were looking for it.
