I use Vercel and Netlify for my projects but prefer Vercel

Used to deploy everything on Vercel until I hit the limit with the long API call recently. Moved everything to fly.io, takes more steps to setup but things went well!

For different use cases:
1. Static content sites / frontend-only
a. Digital Ocean's App Platform has free hosting for static sites, but it is limited to ~60k HTML pages.
b. Cloudflare pages is also free but limited to 20k pages.
c. Vercel is good for static sites / frontend-only but isn't free for Github organizations (must be personal Github).
d. I use Render.com as it doesn't have the drawbacks of the others listed above.
2. Cheap wordpress hosting for basic content sites - Hostinger $4 per month shared hosting for 100 domains.
3. Web apps with minimal scale - Digital Ocean's App Platform for simple web apps, and their Droplets for anything requiring more control over the infra setup.
4. Apps with a bit more scale - AWS seems more reliable than Digital Ocean (in my experience DO perform upgrades periodically which can take a site out, but it's never happened with AWS for me), it's worth it if there is some scale but otherwise the unpredictable pricing turns me off AWS.
I am using "netcup", a great German hosting provider.

Personally, I've had success with HostGator for my web applications.

Vercel
Have used both Vercel for a custom website and GoDaddy.
I've been using Los Angeles Dedicated Servers for my web applications, and I must say, their performance and support have been exceptional. The dedicated resources and robust security measures they offer have made a significant difference in ensuring the smooth operation and reliability of my web applications. Highly recommended!

My choice is: Amazon AWS
Right now, I'm using DigitalOcean for my web apps. Their pricing is transparent, and the performance is reliable. Also, their documentation is top-notch, which makes setup and troubleshooting easier.

It all depends on the level of performance you need and the geographic location of your users.
It also depends on the type of architecture your application is built upon (containerized application ? Lambda function ?)
Finally, you should choose based on the traffic requirement and budget you have (some hosting providers will become quite expensive when you start having a LOT of traffic).
Overall, I always avoid cheap hosting solutions (mostly because I know this equates to the worst kind of equipments and the most resource pooling ever possible).
When you spent weeks/months building a product, it's a very bad idea to lowball your hosting and get the show stopped for a few bucks saved every months ;-)
If you have no clear idea of what you need and want a generic fits-all type of solution look at the regulars (GCP, AWS, Azure). Among these three, GCP tends to have the best price/quality ratio

Hostinger. Happy with them.
Your social team
Im currently using Hostinger, for me its the best when talking prices and what the plan includes, as well as costumer service
I've tried many big brand names like GoDaddy, etc. Usually, I go for the best customer support that fits my budget. Don't overthink about hosting - you can always upgrade once your traffic grows.
I use a local provider since it's cheaper and it's enough for me.
Vercel, all the time.

Vercel,it works great with NextJS projects, so it's a no brainer.
