Nowadays this type of static site is insanely cheap to host. Put a CDN like CloudFlare (which it seems they are using) in front of this type of site and you could scale to millions of hits basically for free.

Which is why Neocities has a free tier which doesn't even have ads.

> With this launch, and our recently deployed 11-datacenter global anycast caching CDN, Neocities becomes a world-class web hosting service, proving you can still make building a web site fun and easy without sacrificing performance, and without being forced to figure out how to use esoteric, expensive cloud services.

Or just put it on Cloudflare pages.

Why so 1/4 of the internet can't access your site.

Your comment isn't specifying what 25% doesn't have access. If you mean China being 1/4 the current human population that could be true you need to be more specific.

I think that is true regardless.
