S3 Websites
You can host static websites with S3
Static websites are fixed and display the same content for every user and are usually written exclusively in HTML.
Dynamic websites can display different content and provide user interaction and are a mix of advanced programming and databases in addition to HTML.
Index and Error documents in S3 (both need to be HTML):
Must configure an index document (default page) for when the user is not requesting any specific page.
Optionally configure bucket with custom error document so that Amazon S3 returns that HTML error document when an error occurs.
Website Endpoint:
URL where static website can be accessed.
Can have a custom website endpoint with Route53.
A 403 (Forbidden) error could suggest there are problems with the bucket policy allowing public reads.
