I also use Digital Ocean to host my personal websites. I have deployed a 5$ droplet to host 4 websites builded with Elixir/Phoenix since they offer 1 GB RAM.

Statamic. It’s a little different unless you’re used to flat-file systems. But it’s great for this sort of project, plus the community is very much like it is here: super helpful and always enthusiastic.

I also enjoy gigalixir and find it to be a great platform for simple, lightweight, and small Elixir/Phoenix apps. I simply havent used the platform enough to evaluate it for bigger projects.
Heroku is also just fine for Phoenix apps, plus it has a richer ecosystem for diagnostic, logging, and metrics tools.
