Host Your Own Blog with Gitlab and Netlify

This guide explains how to host a own blog / website for free with about 1 hour of effort. ~~It’s how I host this blog.~~ (Update: It’s now hosted on Cloudflare Pages.)

There are certainly other options, and I’ve used some in the past. But this worked very well and with very little configuration effort.

In this guide I use Gitlab as code host and Netlify to publish the website. I’m using the Hugo build system to build a static page.
