Just looked at their website, they don't do many loss leaders as others, for example others offer free static site hosting.

But they are a private company with only one small $6m funding round back in 2022, so I think they are more focused on building organically and not chasing investor funded growth.

Good luck to Bunny!

They have a $1 minimum spend across all services. You can effectively host unlimited static sites for $1.

You can host static sites with no cost in multiple provider like cloudflare Page, Github Page etc.

I would spend a dollar I'd it meant avoiding both of those companies.

As I understand it, it is $1/month minimum spend. Big difference between a one-time cost vs. a recurring cost. No matter how small.

Yes, but recurring spend helps keep the business sustainable. No matter how small

They also have prepaid plans so that you have no risk of runaway metered costs
