Update: Dragonfort is no more. I currently recommend Dreamhost. See my "Life could be a dream" post for more information.

I hate to see podcasters talking about their hosting and bandwidth charges. Yes, it can be expensive, particularly if you use a one-stop solution. Here's why I feel bad: My charges are $1 a month. My host is dragonfort.net. One dollar gets me 500MB of storage and 10GB of transfer. I don't expect to ever hit that, because I'm using The Coral Cache, and older podcasts will be moved to archive.org. Dragonfort is not a ready-to-use blog. You get a virtual host with MYSQL, PHP, and other requisite stuff. It's up to you to install Wordpress or whatever you want to use. It wasn't hard to do, and I can't say I used any geek-fu more advanced than using FTP and following directions until I had been up and running for 4 days and decided to start messing with the footer and the sidebar. If folks are interested, I'll approach James at Dragonfort about the possibility of me creating a template so that you can request Wordpress preinstalled (or install it with one click). If you sign up, I'd appreciate if you mentioned illudium.com.
