You'd be missing out, tbh.

Going down the JAM stack route provides a number of opportunities to improve on many of technical aspects common to the development of a CMS backed website.

For a start, you'll miss out on opportunities cheaper hosting with 'serverless' deployment. But I think the chance to decouple the frontend from the backend is valuable enough, fwiw.

Ironically serverless is move expensive. For a dollar month you can get wordpress hosting.

If you build a JAM stack site, many places will host it for free. GitHub most famously.

Relying on free hosting for a commercial enterprise is not smart!
