monthly website expenses
summary
in this longpost, i will detail monthly expenses for maintaining my websites. web resources are primarily managed on AWS, and there's one domain (greentea.moe) managed on Porkbun.
here are the expenses on the main account which has most of my static websites hosted on it.
the primary expense is S3 storage and DNS
here are the expenses on the secondary account which has haihai.link hosted on it.
expenses are on VPC (i.e. the public IPv4 address attached to the EC2), DNS, and a small amount on EC2 EBS (gp3 storage)
there are also expenses that are on a non-monthly basis.
these are mainly web domains which are renewed on an annual basis and the EC2 reserved instance hosting haihai.link which has a 3-year term
when adding up all the monthly expenses across these 3 sources, it totals to: (6.08 + 5.38 + 12.61) => 24.07 USD monthly
