So, I've been wanting to move my sites to new hosting for just about a year. Sadly, and very frustratingly, each time I find a price that I can afford, the small print always says something like: "The price is on a 36-month term." And the 12-month term is always much more.

I think I'm done looking and will just stick with the hosting that I'm not thrilled with. The service is terrible but I can sort of afford it, at least. Is there good, affordable, hosting out there for unemployed poor people?

Sorry, went on a bit of a rant there.

@cmccullough What do you need to host? If you can get away from CMSs that need databases and server processing then there are lots of free options. You could even build a static version of a site locally and just host the static files.

GitHub and Cloudflare are two good options for this.

@ross @cmccullough I just built my first static site with a Netlify/GitHub setup, and with the 5 or less updates I'm making a month (and my minimal traffic), I pay $0 for hosting.
