I definitely recommend deploying static pages (either GitHub pages as people have mentioned or a static website through Amazon S3/CloudFront). Personally, I use Ghost and Hipstadeploy:

Doesn't Ghost use a database though? It was using SQLite last time I looked at it.

It does. I run it on my local machine and use Hipstadeploy to render it to static HTML and send it to Amazon S3.

(I'm the kind of weird person that actually likes using a database and fancy backend to write/organize my posts, so I didn't want to use Jekyll.)
