Yes, I bought 97 cents worth of hosting because I needed paid hosting to install something for a website I’m working on. Don’t expect it to last long…I think my less-than-a-dollar’s worth of hosting will give me about a week without ads.
I’m letting go of my hosting for our family site because the money is due and well…I just can’t justify the expense right now. Honestly, I haven’t done anything with it since I started our family blog so it’s probably not worth paying for anyway. We renewed the domain, so at least nobody can steal that from us.
There are some major advantages to having an ad-free blog, though. My visual editing option is back (YAY!) and I don’t have a huge string of ads at the top of my posting screen when it takes me forever to write a post. Every time it saves, it tacks on another string of ads at the top and it’s incredibly annoying. So I will enjoy all that my 97 cents bought me while I can and then moan and complain when it runs out. Because that’s how I roll, baby!
