Hey, here's a cool graph for you. Daily bandwidth usage for http://mckinley.cc/

@mckinley Wow! 😳 So... You're gonna need a bigger host soon eh? 😂

@prologic Nah, my traffic will probably stay pretty low. NearlyFreeSpeech likes to talk about how well they handle scaling, anyway.

@prologic I don't know, but I've never noticed any downtime and I use their "non-production" plan.

@mckinley That's really cool! 👌 how much does this cost you typically? 🤔

@prologic One (American) cent per day. Their business model is "pay for what you use". My website uses almost no resources, so I pay the minimum. I think we talked about NFS a few days ago.

@mckinley Any ideas how they manage to do this so cheaply? Your site is just a a static site right? No CPU really required to serve it? There are plenty of cloud/iaas providers out there that also.have a "Pay for what you use"-type model - But nothing quite this cheap! 🤣

@prologic I believe they own all their hardware and IPv4s are shared between sites so that cuts down on cost quite a bit.\nWith my baseline membership, they don't hold your hand. You get an extensive FAQ section and a community forum to refer to. That's about it. If you pay $5/month, you get access to individual support and a few other perks.\nI think I read somewhere that half of your websites hosted with them must be using the 5 cent or 50 cent per day plan, too. That's probably where they make most of their money. I don't imagine they make anything off of me.
