Serving a Static Site Over HTTPS Using S3, CloudFront, and GoDaddy

I want to create and host a HTTPS secure static website using AWS S3 bucket, Cloudfront, and Godaddy.  If you are looking for options on hosting that is cost-effective, can scale just in case your site goes viral and is fairly easy to maintain?  and  It's important to host your websites and web apps with HTTPS enabled. here a right architecture for you to host. We will be using AWS S3 for hosting our static website content (will post a separate blog, how to host an Angular application). AWS CloudFront for faster distribution, using AWS certificate manager and finally we will be using our DNS service from Godaddy. (I could have used AWS Route53 but why to pay that extra 50 bucks).  **imp. - because of GoDaddy only allows CNAME for subdomains;  we will do cloudfront distribution for www.myexample.com, and use domain forwarding from myexample.com to www.myexample.com 1.

The Gartner Group estimates B2B revenue worldwide to be $7.29 trillion dollars by 2004. In early 2000, the volume of investment in B2B by venture capitalists was reported to be accelerating sharply although profitable B2B sites were not yet easy to find.
