I'm really curious about the niche you're targeting.

Let me try to figure it out: people that can code a static page and use a static generator (know markup languages, maybe tempting languages, can use the command line) and people who can't use an FTP app and haven't heard of Git/Github pages.

How big is the intersection of these sets of people? I would be surprised if it's more than a handful.

I'm not trying to sound pessimistic ... I would be happy, in fact, to know that I'm wrong. So, if I may ask ... do you have more than 0 customers?

I would also add S3 to that list. I host my (admittedly low-traffic) blog on S3 with CloudFront as a CDN for <$2/month.

why wouldn't you do it free on github pages?

I prefer S3 and CloudFront for various reasons, and <$2/month is so close to free that it doesn't matter.
