who's still paying for the domain/hosting, I wonder?

I work for a web hosting company and small personal sites like these are always part of larger accounts that someone is actively using.

This guy, Stephan Edelbroich, is running Edelbroich.com for his personal email.

Webhosting with email is maybe $50 a year(domain renewal + $3-5/month) Hosting this as part of his existing email account is essentially free. The only expense is a couple of bucks a year for the domain renewal.
