I’ve been running this site on Google Cloud for about three weeks now, and received by first bill.
The cost was mostly the Cloud SQL instance that is running because of WordPress. It cost me USD 9.52 to run the site, where Cloud SQL was USD 9.50 out of those. Not too bad. The “problem” is that I’m not sure I need a WordPress instance for a personal website/blog.
I’ve started to look at static website generators, like Hugo, to create my website. It seems to be more secure (no JS), and cheaper (no need for Cloud SQL). I need to play a little more with it, but I probably going to look into it.
