# Contribute

Enjoy my ramblings on this site? Found a particular article helpful?  Maybe consider contributing towards hosting costs.

If you feel the burning desire to support this small blog of mine or any number of my [projects](/projects.html), you're more than welcome to help fund my **NearlyFreeSpeech.NET account**:

[Add funds to my NearlyFreeSpeech.NET account](https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net/contribute/btxx.org)

By funding the hosting provider directly, you help cover the costs of running and maintaining this website, including but not limited to: 

- bandwidth
- domain renewals
- ongoing maintenance

Full transparency: the average annual billing for all of the above is **~$90 USD**.

The account contribution page linked above will provide even more details, should you have any questions. In a nutshell: no part of your contribution is sent directly to me. Instead, it is applied *directly* to my NearlyFreeSpeech hosting account.

You can still enjoy everything on this blog for free, so please don't feel obligated to give. 

Thank you.
