I have managed to get the site working but with the following limitations 1) I am yet to map the domain directly to an blob. ie the user has to go to https://www.mydomain.com/index.html not https://www.mydomain.com I gather Microsoft plan to fix this this year https://feedback.azure.com/forums/217298-storage/suggestions/6417741-static-website-hosting-in-azure-blob-storage I have googled some workarounds involving Azure Functions or CDN Rewrite rules but am yet to try. 2) How to do a Contact form that emails me on submit. I have seen some advice at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9533172/adding-contact-form-to-a-static-website I am wanting some advice on how to proceed. I don't mind a bit of a learning curve as long as the learning is not going to be redundant in 6 months time. Maybe I should just do a web app with Cloudflare for ssl ( which I have done before) and wait. Thoughts and experiences? Kirsten
