You can use a webserver such as Apache to serve HTML files. Apache can be installed by using the commands below depending on your OS.

Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install apache2

CentOS:

sudo yum install httpd
sudo service httpd start

After you have installed apache like MDS says with that command, you can upload your HTML site inside 

/var/www/html

If you want to configurate apache to handle domains, you need to create a VHOST. You can learn more about this in another tutorial

How To Set Up Apache Virtual Hosts on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
by Justin Ellingwood
The Apache web server is the most popular way to serve web content on the internet. Apache has the ability to serve multiple domains from a single server by using a mechanism called "virtual hosts". If a virtual host is configured correctly for each domain, the web server can correctly route traffic to the appropriate files based on the domain name requested. In this guide, we'll demonstrate how to configure Apache virtual hosts on an Ubuntu 14.04 VPS.
