Hosting

Cloudflare vs Vercel for small websites

Both platforms can host fast websites. The decision depends on whether you want a simple static site, a frontend application, serverless functions, or a domain-and-DNS workflow in one place.

Choose Cloudflare Pages when

• You are publishing a mostly static content site or landing page.
• You want DNS, CDN, SSL, and hosting in one operational dashboard.
• You care about low ongoing cost and simple custom domain setup.

Choose Vercel when

• You are building with Next.js or a frontend app that benefits from the Vercel workflow.
• You need preview deployments, app routing, and frontend developer tooling.
• Your team is comfortable watching usage and plan limits.
