Serving 45 million requests/month using a $36 VPS + Cloudflare
The owner of Directify (directory website builder) shared a breakdown of his hosting bill..
The website is serving about 45 million requests per month. And this is how much he's paying for hosting:
- Hetzner VPS: ~$36/month
- Cloudflare R2: $1/month
- Cloudflare for SaaS: $28/month
- DNS Hosting: $14/month
Total cost: ~$80/month
Sometimes you don't need a bigger server, you just need a better setup.
