I use BunnyCDN to host several sites, they have a minimum cost of $1 per month and I usually pay $1 per month.

I run my sites [0] on Hugo and copy the generated sites (Makefile) to BunnyCDN with their command line tool.

It's a plain CDN, but does include DNS hosting for easy SSL certificates and has scriptable DNS [1] where you can run Javascript for dynamic DNS.

I went with them b/c they are in the EU, but I've stayed because I love them.

Love Bunny too, wonderful service and great team. I wish there'd be an easy way to set up auto-deploy to Bunny Edge Storage on GitHub commit (to avoid doing so manually), but I guess it's not to hard to do through GitHub Actions.

Looks nice but then so does Netlify at face level! Seems like it is pay as you go, and there is a settable max spend per month.

Does their ddos protection work differently than Netlify and could Bunny ever pull the same stunt with billing?

    No they don't do Ddos protection AFAIK.

    I think the main difference to me is

      Netlify  $550/TB [0]
  BunnyCDN  $10/TB [1]

    You preload your account:

    "In order to keep your service online, you are required to keep a positive account credit balance. Our system will automatically send multiple warning emails if your account balance drops beyond a certain point. If you fail to recharge your account, the system will automatically suspend your account"

      Just checked, you can also set a limit on monthly bandwidth.

      "Monthly Bandwidth Limit (GB) - Limits the allowed bandwidth used in a month. If the limit is reached the zone will be disabled. Set to 0 for unlimited."
