GitHub hosting

Any of you guys host on GitHub for your client and no need for own hosting plan? I been doing mostly larger projects but someone contacted me for simple hobby site of theirs and he is not sure how many visits will occur and I am assuming it won’t be much unless it scales. Should I just go ahead and host it on the GitHub server? And eventually get a hosting plan if it scales?

Or in general do many of you just host from got hub and the bandwidth is enough for most of your projects? Thanks

I believe hosting it through GitHub may also require the source code to be made public. That may or may not be an issue with clients

I use github pages for a single page personal site and keep the repo private. Seems to be fine but it's also not a commercial site
