I know it’s not the most exciting thing to be passionate about, but hey, don’t judge. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever paid more than $5 per month for hosting over the past ten years. I’m talking about hosting my own personal website projects, not the site you’re reading this on right now – hosting this one actually costs quite a bit.

Yes, that is true…but that’s only for the first year. Once that introductory period ends, the price jumps to $17.99 per month. Over five years, you’re looking at spending around $825, and over ten years, that total climbs to about $1,900. If you’re reading this, you’re probably already aware of this and are searching for more affordable options.
