Since your tutorial is relatively short and contains R code intermixed
with the results of running it, it could make a great vignette.
Vignettes are linked on the CRAN page for a package right under the
PDF reference manual. For example, the BiocManager package has one
vignette: https://cran.r-project.org/package=BiocManager
Vignettes are a part of the package and their code is automatically
checked together with your examples. For the users of your package,
this will help keep the tutorial available (even if the website moves
in the future) and compatible with the current version of the package
(even if the package evolves and the tutorial website evolves together
with it).
R has built-in support for PDF vignettes via LaTeX using Sweave [*].
HTML vignettes can be much more accessible than PDF files, but there is
no built-in HTML vignette engine in R [**]. The 'markdown' package is
reasonably lightweight and has an HTML vignette engine. Markdown tries
to be a superset of HTML, so it should be possible to keep most of your
original HTML, including the styling, while rewriting the tutorial as
an executable vignette.

It's possible to write a crude HTML vignette engine in ~100 lines of R
code, but we cannot expect every package author to do that.
