I have my personal website deployed to S3 and my DNS in Route53 with a Travis CI commit hook that will upload my files and update the permissions automatically when I push changes to Github.

Only costs ~$27/year to have a domain($15) and a static website deployed to S3/R53 ($1/month), which I've found to be fairly reasonable for the level of reliability I can expect.

I admit it is complicated up front but once it is setup and updates are automated it is really nice to not need to worry about self hosting, hardware, VPS', etc just for a simple website.
