Sometimes you need to launch a website lightning quick, perhaps in order to test a certain service, release a prototype or for a last minute event. Whatever your use case may be, it is very beneficial to be able to launch your website as fast as possible.

In this article I’ll guide you through the quickest way (in my opinion) to create and launch a website to the public — using AWS S3.

With the domain name taken care of as well as the hosting , both free of charge— you’ll eliminate the two most costly elements of launching a website.

We’ll accomplish this with a few very simple steps.
