GitHub created [GitHub Pages](https://pages.github.com/), a way to host static sites for free, usually hosted at https://_username_.github.io/_repository_. This means that they are providing free _hosting_, meaning the server space to hold all your files and a free _domain_, the address/URL where others can navigate to your content.
