This might be impressive for that person's business but I don't think there's nothing that technically exciting about this. 100k/month is one page view every 25

  > I don't think there's nothing that technically exciting about this. 100k/month is one page view every 25sec average. The numbers aren't meant to be brag or impress anyone. It's just an example showing real numbers based on my current site's traffic. I wrote it because over the past year at least 40 people have asked me how I host my site and what the process looks like to build it. Now when I get future emails, tweets or Youtube comments I have a place to link folks instead of having to wing a half-assed individual response. Also in a world where everyone thinks you need a multi-galaxy hyper inverted Kubernetes cluster with DeepMind-level AI to auto-scale to infinity I think it's a breath of fresh air to know you don't need to do that to host a lot of different types of content.

      Wouldn't the web hosting cost? And which middlemen were you referring to?
