Hasn't the small independent host been invented in the
US? That would be funny as my host here in Sweden rent
their server space in the US! I have all kinds of tools
and account access possibilities for the equivalent of
around €30/year. Not a lot of server space but enough
for me, and more can be had for an equally slim price,
and the same is true if I should get a lot of traffic.
I use the hosting mostly for email. My poor excuse for
a personal site contains only a few essays and drawings
by my youngest kid, and then there are small company
promotion sites for the companies of family members who
aren't kids anymore each on their own domain. Add to
that the fee for 4 domains which makes the total
somewhere between €50 and €800 per year. I haven't even
bothered to compute the total. My main cost is for
internet access itself which I have with a separate
provider; that's at around €15/month.
