This is a good workflow and pretty flexible. I would actually recommend NearlyFreeSpeech for hosting and BunnyCDN for caching etc.

Turns that $5/month to less than $3/month for low traffic sites.

Saving twelve bucks a year is, well, $12 per year. Better than nothing.

Why not use CloudFlare Pages directly? It avoids you having to deal with and maintain a droplet, beings the $5/month to $0/month, reduces attack surface, makes scaling "magic", etc. The only caveat is that your site needs to be fully static, but it probably already is anyways.

+1, I use DO's App platform to host 3 static nuxt.js sites, and because they're all static, it's all under their free tier, which is a huge plus!

or $5/year with a cheap VPS https://www.lowendstock.com/

Haven't seen this site, thanks for posting. Interesting seeing so many boxes using NAT for IPv4, wonder how that gets shared, just one person gets port 80 and too bad for everyone else?
