TL;DR: Using an old Raspberry Pi hosted at home in conjunction with CloudFlare and DuckDNS as $1/yr web hosting.

After cPanel hiked its prices, the hosting company I've been using went out of business. I looked for some shared hosting options. They ranged from $30 to $60 a year. That's much more than I want to pay (especially coming from a much better deal with my previous host). My solution is to host them at home on a Raspberry Pi.

I chose a Pi as my hardware versus a spare laptop, since a laptop would cost me at least $30 in electricity in a year. The Pi on the other hand will cost about $1 in electricity. The problem with hosting at home is my IP address will change from time to time. So I had to get a little creative.

I setup DuckDNS to track my IP address. http://example.duckdns.org points to my home IP address and there's a cron job on my Pi that updates my DuckDNS account every 5 minutes. So when my IP address changes, http://example.duckdns.org gets updated automatically.

THE BOY WHO LIVED

Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, of number four, Privet Drive,
were proud to say that they were perfectly normal,
thank you very much. They were the last people you’d
expect to be involved in anything strange or
mysterious, because they just didn’t hold with such
nonsense.

Mr. Dursley was the director of a firm called
