As most of you may have worked out – Feed-Squirrel.com is provided to you lot as a free service. I don't charge for my time developing it, I do it off my own back – as many people do with their own projects elsewhere.
Trouble is, my hosting is due for renewal real soon – and I am looking forking out a couple of hundred bucks to pay for this site for another year. For me, this is a lot of money I don't have. Adsense generates some, but not nearly enough to cover the site for a year.
So what can I do about it? Well, the problem stems mainly from Coldfusion. Because of CF, I have to pay nearly double the price of a “normal” hosting account. The options I have are turn the site off (but maintain the blog elsewhere), migrate everything to something like PHP or hope for a hefty donation from someone 
.
As much as I hate to say it, I don't see how CF can be a success if site's like this are unable to run on a tight budget. Adobe really need to reconsider their licensing model for Coldfusion. If they were to drop the price by 50% – would they sell twice as many licenses though?
As long as it’s non-commerical, then maybe you can hook up a deal with a local User Group? Lots of UGs are now given dedicated servers for free and maybe you can work something out there?
Not sure about the UKCFUG, but the ScottishCFUG have a dedicated server provided free of charge by Firstserv. As long as Firstserv were OK about it I’m sure we could host feed squirrel?
We’ll host it for you drop me an email
