The pricing reads like it will cost $5/month forever. I suggest at least adding inflation.

  From the pledge (https://posthaven.com/ourpledge https://posthaven.com/ourpledge) >Will it be $5 a month forever? >As long as we can! We'll do our best to keep it as reasonable as possible. If costs go up, we'll have to raise prices. If they go down, we'll lower them. >We believe fair's fair -- and we'll always be fair.

    I suggest they remove the "forever" next to the price to make it clear the service will last forever, not the price. $5.00 in 2006 had about the same buying power as $0.43 in 1930, so $5 in 1930 is equivalent to $58 today.

      The cost of bandwidth and storage is dropping at a faster rate than inflation. Besides, I'd say 90%+ of the blogs on a service like this would be mostly text and low traffic, and $5/month can cover that today several times over. That said, I'm not sure I'd trust another blogging service by the people that created Posterous. They already had a chance to demonstrate that they would keep the service running for the long haul and they didn't. I'd suggest people take their $5/month and spend it on Wordpress.com.
