I want to build a "pirate portfolio" of all my personal fan works. There's manga, anime, documentaries, book chapters, all sorts of things I've translated myself from Russian and English. Mostly Japanese, British and modern Russian content. No USA.

What do you guys think would be the best place to host the website? Not the content itself, which I plan on uploading to mega until I can afford to build a small home server.

I live in a "pirate-friendly" country (Brazil), but it won't make any difference if the website platform itself is located in a regulated country, am I right? They can have it taken down anyway.

I'm thinking of nothing special, even a simple rentry page, minimally customized, would do.

So, what do you guys think I should do to protect my website from being randomly taken down? How to post the links? Where to host the websites? Thanks!

You can create a simple static website and deploy it to Vercel for free. You can buy a domain name and attach it pretty easily, but it's not needed (by default website will have .vercel.app domain).

Vercel will have something against piracy oriented website I guess

Hmm yes maybe. I do remember a paywall bypass extension was removed from there because publishers were complaining to Vercel. Worst case scenario I guess your website gets taken down
