My sites get 4 billion requests a year but I only pay $244/mo to host them on my own VPS
I get 4,150,000,000 (4 billion) requests and 300,000,000 (300 million) visitors per year
That'd cost me $338,913 if I wasn't on a VPS like @brian_lovin below
Instead I pay $2,932/year or 115x less because I host my sites on my own VPS
My VPS servers are way too big and usually only use 10% of their resources so I could even go with $300/year probably if I optimized more (but I don't care)
Especially with AI these days it's easier than ever to host your sites yourself, and way cheaper! 100-1000x cheaper!

P.S. I'm on 𝕏 too if you'd like to follow more of my stories. And I wrote a book called MAKE about building startups without funding. See a list of my stories or contact me.
Get the next one before everyone else. Every startup I build and every method I actually use, in plain English. Free, every time I post.
