for $0 a day, you can utilize Codeberg pages for static hosting or VMs from Oracle Cloud Free Tier (4 cores and 24 GB RAM that you can use on up to four VMs).
for the domain part, you can get 'em from afraid.org or eu.org.

For anyone interested in how they host it for $0.01/day, it's https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net/
Since I have a small node.js-based site and host a couple static sites for friends, I ran their cost estimator. "Without subscription" (whatever that means) the annual cost was about $60. This is slightly higher than my current 4-year deal with Hostinger. With subscription it was $115. I'll stick with what I have.
If anyone wants a concrete middle ground: I host a small static site behind a Cloudflare named tunnel from a home box — no paid hosting, fixed domain, full raw logs. The one trap I hit was analytics: dashboards reported hundreds of 'unique visitors' until I filtered the raw log and found most were crawlers and my own monitoring probes. Raw logs beat dashboards for tiny sites.
