For on-premise cluster, what is the recommended solution for load-balancing?

Question

I have a k8s cluster, and need to host a few websites, currently I am using host network way to proxy the traffic.

However, as the traffic grows, I will need a more scalable solution to load balance traffic.

I have tried some tutorials on the internet with bare metallb https://metallb.universe.tf/, but it was not successful. I am not familiar with network technologies, would someone recommend a solution for on-premise load-balancer hardware, or baremetal loadbalancer software that are easy to install and maintain?

You can combine keepalived with haproxy ingress controller for a HA Solution.
