Getting a VPS is still pretty pricey. The best I've been able to
find for a lowest-end VPS is about $15-20/mo (both your suggested
6sync and Linode fall into this category). For shared hosting,
I've seen it as low as free (I wouldn't trust anything valuable
to such a site as they often inject things into the output or
reliability is an issue), frequently hovering around $3/mo for
the lowest, $5/mo for what I'd consider reasonable reliability.
That's a 3-5x price factor.
If all your site is static (like I seem to recall Dr. Chip's
pages were), using something like github is a pretty tempting
proposition: stable, free, easy interface, and easy way to share
and gather updates.
