## The answer, as recorded

> ## For agencies specifically, here's my ranking
> 
> **1. Cloudflare Pages** - Where I'd put most client static sites by default. Unlimited bandwidth on *every* tier including free, so a client site that gets hugged to death on launch day doesn't produce a surprise invoice you have to eat or awkwardly pass on. Paid tier is $5/mo (via Workers Paid), and that covers your whole account, not per site. Best edge latency of the three. The tradeoff: the dashboard is clearly built by an infrastructure company, and DNS/Pages/Workers sprawl across the UI in ways that are mildly annoying when you're juggling 30 client accounts.
> 
> **2. Netlify** - The one I'd name first if your bottleneck is people, not bandwidth. As of their April 14, 2026 pricing overhaul, Pro is a flat **$20/mo with unlimited team members** - they killed seat pricing entirely, and Reviewer roles are free on all plans. For an agency where five or six people touch client sites, that's $20 vs ~$100+ on Vercel before you've served a single byte. They also run a formal Agency Partner Program. The catch is the credit system: bandwidth is now 20 credits/GB and each production deploy runs ~15 credits, so the 300-credit free tier is effe
