Launch a Website with AWS S3 & Route 53 | AWS Static Website, Step by Step

How to host a website on Amazon S3. Today I will be purchasing the techwithhitch.com domain using Route 53. Then we will be hosting our domain in an S3 bucket. The bucket will have our HTML & CSS files inside and be configured for static hosting.

Finally we will be using Route 53 to assign a custom URL.

Hopefully to save you some typing here is the policy:

{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Sid": "PublicReadGetObject",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": "*",
"Action": "s3:GetObject",
"Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::YourBucketName/*"
}
]
}

Enjoy!
