+1 for IPFS

Hosting static blogs is really easy on IPFS (and if you absolutely can't live without comments: use disqus) but the URL's are cryptic and you either need a public IPFS gateway to access the site - which could get DDoS'ed - or run your own.

Another alternative is ZeroNet but you still need to run the client to access the site.



IPFS team member here:

If the URLs are cryptic, you can use dns to make them look nicer. Take a look at the TXT record for ipfs.io, as well as the TXT record for _dnslink.ipld.io

Both of those websites are hosted through ipfs and have A (or CNAME) records pointing to our gateways. You can also access this locally if you happen to be running an ipfs daemon at http://localhost:8080/ipns/ipfs.io


A little hard to find, but this is well described in https://github.com/ipfs/examples/blob/5d77470eb5ae944aa54093....


That's awesome, not sure if this was around last time I tried but it is still hard to find, thanks! :)
