What it actually costs to run Pagecord (July 2026)

I first published the costs of running Pagecord back in March. Things have changed recently, with a few new costs (CleanTalk, ICO data protection), a move to more resilient infrastructure, and a big price hike from Hetzner in June. Pagecord is a UK Limited Company which comes with a number of overheads, and I take no salary or dividends whatsoever. Any profits stay in the business so I can call on them when needed. I think people will find this interesting, and also appreciate the transparency. Pagecord is very much a labour of love, but I do hope the number of paying customers continues to grow such that I can make a small income in return for my hard work eventually.
