imihajlov.com would cost around 10 USD per month and as another reply mentioned, static site hosting is free. I guess it's a bottomless pit but it's "only" 10 USD and it's nice to have.

Surely you mean 10USD per year? If you are paying that per month just for the domain you are being ripped off :)
Correct, I meant per year
Sure, but that would add up to $1200 in a decade of hosting which is substantial and the timespan one'd likely run it for. People buy a $1k PC every 5 years and consider it a large expense, why not this?

I can find it for much lower though, like $8/year? Then again that's on namecheap who then raise rates when you go in to renew lol.

I'm sure GP meant /year, not month. Pricing's always (as far as I've ever seen) per year for one thing, but also it's not 120 (or more) unless your name's Ford or something. (Damn it.)
The site is already being hosted, I was only talking about a domain name, so at ~$10/year or whatever it is now, that's only $100 a decade over whatever he is paying now for hosting using a free domain.

That's 10 years of benefiting from a real domain name for the cost of... a very long list of pointless $100 goods and services.

It's a couple of cents per day.

A .com domain for US$10 per *month*? That doesn't round right, it's not even that per year.
