Couple of options
I've worked around cloud cost using below options for a quite long now,
1. For images/css/js use cloudflare.com. It will save you a ton in terms of bandwidth cost
2. If you have video content best to use a CDN like bunny.net (there are other cheaper options). You can use same for images but cloudflare is cheaper
3. Use cheap VPS as origin storage for content. CDN will take away the disk I/O latency. But have a reliable backup
Basically mix and match cheap delivery channels with reliable services. Have primary website on something like AWS.
I run on,
- aws for primary hosting
- linode for data backup (it's little cheaper for me)
- shinjiru and hetzner for edge storage
- cloudflare for caching site & image content
- bunny for image streaming
