Cloudflare Pages / Workers - my default recommendation for agencies.** Unlimited bandwidth on *every* tier, including free. This is the single biggest deal for an agency, because you're never the one holding the bag when a client's site gets a traffic spike or a Hacker News hug. The comparison data puts a 5TB/month site at ~$250 on Cloudflare vs ~$2,200 on Vercel and ~$2,800 on Netlify. You can host most small-business client sites on the free tier indefinitely and only pay $5/mo for Workers when you need dynamic bits. Downside: the dashboard is engineer-oriented, DX is a notch below the other two, and clients find Cloudflare's UI confusing if you ever hand over the account.
