I've been pondering on what to do to cut some costs and I think my website will have to eventually go. At $100 a year I just can't justify it for the 10 people that visit a day. I will miss making little titles for fics though.
I have plenty of hosting space just going to waste if you want your own subdomain - http://whatever.angstnromance.net - completely up to you, no charge. :)
I think I'm going to wait just a bit - I've got some time (July) before the site renewal comes up. (Yes, I'm already stressing about it.) I think I might see what nandamai comes up with below. A joint site with her and poohmusings and so on intrigues me. If it doesn't cost too much, that is.
My girlfriendsignificant otherrelevant otherfriend with benefits female companion bought me a year-long pass to the museum system here in Pittsburgh. I can visit any of the four major museums any time I want. And since I work a block away from the main museum it will be nice if I just want to get away from work for a bit.
If you like you can buy a domain name with godaddy or similar then tack it on to my hosting (which has "unlimited" disk space and bandwidth) and I can give you an access to the webpanel so you can add/remove subdomains etc as you please.
Your only cost would be the domain name - and we're pretty much gonna have that dreamhost account for years, cos it's our wedding site, and family use it a lot to keep up to date with our lives. Then all of the weinerdogs could have their sites for cost of domain name :D
Ooooh, I really like that idea! Esp because I've been thinking of getting rid of my poohmusings.com site too since a) I only write about 1 fic a year these days (so sad!), b) my current site is costly, and c) it seems like a waste of money due to a.
Of course I haven't actually gotten rid of my site yet because OMG I AM TOO LAZY TO CHANGE ALL LINKS, ETC., ETC.
So, yes! Let's do a wienerdog site! If we go with my current host (Dreamhost.com), it's $100-something a year and that includes the domain name and a ton of "free" subdomains.

$119/year was too much since I never really used it.

(Hmm. Maybe we should all consider a wienerdog site with our own domains and split the costs. Hmm.)
