Hetzner

Also static page generators like hugo or nikola.

I use a small French company called monarobase. I don't use it but they offer wordpress hosting (and they have easy to use assistant for all their other offers). I've been their customer for well over 10 years now and I wouldn't want a larger more widely known host because 1) I never had any major issue with them, contrary to larger ones 2) their customer support is is the closest to perfection I have ever dealt with—which I find invaluable since I have myself very, very limited technical knowledge: every time I've made an oopsie, they fixed it in a matter of hours (and they never laughed at me :p)

If you want a bigger host and not some small French one (we have great cheese, too), like already suggested I would say the German at Hetzner are great but depending the offer, you will have a lot of maintenance to do yourself. So is the Swiss Infomaniak, I can say I really like what they're trying to make with their Site Creator, even though it still needs some work.

Infomaniak cloud/office suite is also very nice, if anyone is interested: myksuite.

WorPress (though I am open to alternative suggestions).

I started to use WP when it first appeared but in the last decade or so I became incredibly tired with both the direction it was going and the constant flow of feature updates and countless security updates. Not mentioning extensions). I wanted something a lot less demanding, simple and less bloated. I learned to use Hugo, a static website generator. That's what I'm now using. May not fit all use case but it's perfect for me. And I have zero maintenance (security or whatever) server side, since Hugo is only installed on my computer on the website is 100% static.

infomanaiak is based in switzerland and does hosting as well as dns

note that i literally just googled this, i dont have any experience with them but they seem like a good company (incresingly employee owned!)

-- their web host is like 6€/month https://www.infomaniak.com/en/hosting/web-hosting

-- about them https://www.infomaniak.com/en/about

I use Inleed and I'm really happy with them. It's a Swedish company with servers in Sweden and France. My WordPress site was super easy to set up through them. Hosting is as cheap as €2/month and you can buy your domain through them too.

Ionos are German based I think

InfinityFree are based in the Netherlands, though at one point at least they were using US servers. It seems like the best solution for free hosting by far.
