Static hosting fallback

Starter Fix Sprint Static Hosting Fallback Pack

A static-hosting fallback pack for publishing Starter Fix Sprint growth assets through Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, GitHub Pages, or any static file host when the primary Vercel token is unavailable. This is a fallback publishing lane, not proof of deployment.

Generated upload artifact

artifacts/starterfixsprint-static-host-upload-20260704.tar.gz

Use this artifact or the raw public_site_20260615/ directory for static-host upload flows.

Fallback hosting options

fit: medium

GitHub Pages

Publish static site from repository branch/folder

Input: public_site_20260615/

Config: No build, static files only

Proof: GitHub Pages URL returns public 200 and sitemap is accessible

Caution: Requires repository setup and may need path/canonical review.

fit: medium

Any static object host

Upload the static site folder to an object/static host

Input: public_site_20260615/

Config: Serve index.html, XML, JSON, SVG, JS, CSV, MD with correct MIME types

Proof: Key URLs return public 200 and XML/JSON files are readable

Caution: Avoid hosts that block crawler access or rewrite all XML/JSON.

Completion boundary

A fallback package only reduces hosting friction. The traffic goal is incomplete until deployed pages return public 200 and analytics proves rolling 30-day visitors are at or above 1,000,000.
