I build things that go *splonk*

It all depends on your resources available. Personally, I'm a huge fan of Azure because it gives me options to expand later on and is fairly cheap to enter. You can spin up test sites for free if you don't mind using a *.azurewebsites.net domain and it's $10 for a basic website.

It also depends on your backend. You have to look at what the provider will support. All of them support HTML/JS/CSS, but not all will support PHP, .NET, etc.

What are you looking to do?

What is Azure exactly? I know I downloaded VS 2015 and it has all these options for Azure things but I have no clue how to use them. I have used DigitalOcean to host my latest website and it was $10 a month. I plan to deploy a portfolio page in the future and will run into this similar issue of finding the right kind of service. I was thinking of using AWS since so many jobs ask for AWS experience.

Azure is like AWS but Microsoft. You can host and scale any number of services there which is what I love about Axure and AWS. You can start a website small for cheap and then easily scale it up and out as the need arises. The reason I go Azure is because I'm a C# dev and it ties in nicely with VS and TFS for builds.
