Honestly, standard web hosting is far and away cheaper to outsource.
I pay Ionos $14 a month for unlimited space and unlimited bandwidth to host an unlimited amount of sites. It easier to let them handle the hosting and just redirect the sub-domains I need to my home server.
Most Redditor’s here in r/selfhosted have likely never felt the slashdot effect, and the havoc it creates. I’ve had two big posts hit Reddit frontpage over the years linking to my website, and Ionos handled 100k daily unique visitors without a hiccup. No Pi4 on AT&T home fiber could handle that.
Edit:Whoops, missed the under $30 qualifier, Still leaving this here though.
