my monthly hertzner cost is 4.5 eur (and yes this includes snapshots). For simple websites/blogs etc. you don't need much. I host 12 different sites on this setup. And I could put up more. I get around 0.5-1m views combined per month. They are mostly from one time zone, so traffic is not that spread out. That's without cloudflare in front. I used to have it, but a lot of people said they are getting captched to death. People* caught up in AWS bubble often don't realize how expensive it is. However I do use AWS at work extensively - right product for right occasion. * Not saying that's true for you. But I notice that a lot of people I work with are surprised, when they learn this.
