A personal trainer from Gdańsk came to me with one condition: zero hosting costs. Sounds like a joke. It wasn't.
Instead of looking for a compromise, I treated this as an architectural challenge. The client had a hard budget constraint — hosting, domain, and CMS had to cost 0 PLN per month. Full zero.
Free hosting, simple CMS on a free tier, cheap domain. Result: a site that looks professional, loads fast, and ranks on Google — without a single server invoice.
Crucially: the trainer manages content on his own. He doesn't call me to update his class prices. That was a goal in itself.
Site live. Zero running costs. The client focuses on clients, not IT bills — and pays exactly nothing for hosting.
