You know some amazing platforms like AWS, Azure, and Bluehost for hosting but you’re tight on budget and looking for something extremely cheap as low as $0. How does this sounds? Hosting a website for free? Yes, you heard it right. You can deploy your static website for free and this is a how-to guide for hosting website on GITHUB PAGES with a custom domain for free. It’s easy and won’t take more than more than 10 minutes.

1- Create a new Repository

Create a new repository with your username concatenated with github.io. In my case it’s bilalkhaann.github.io

New repositry

2- Push the code

Push the code using Terminal or Command Prompt which ever suits for you. The process remains the same like pushing any other repository and can be found here. The webstie I’m deploying is open source and available at free-css here.
