I wouldn't say he's "optimizing" if he chooses to use a cheap host and subdomain. He's boostrapping an agile product. He can always get a better host and full domain name in subsequent iterations.

Also, I'm sure, if he shops around, he can find a cheap shared host that'll host multiple domains for him. This further implies that he's in constraints-mode rather than solutions-mode. The optimization comparison is meant in the sense that it's like he's focusing on whether the compiler correctly unrolls this or that loop, rather than focusing on getting his product out of the door where it can start creating some value for customers.
