Harmon,
I agree with you, hosting is fucking cheap.

The idea though came from reading a number of posts that convinced me that:

1. For some people who are trying out, even "a few bucks" VS. "free" makes a difference. People try to sell their sig for 15$, and they are not necessary the most unskilled.

2. Some people may be decent or good writers, but they might not necessarily be at ease with setting up stuff the right way. We can help there.

3. In any case, there's no risk for someone trying this - they can still retain the domain, they get help and backlinks, they promote whoever they want, they can walk away any time with their content and domain... so I guess for some people should be a "why not?" deal for mutual benefit.

In any case we'll see if anyone is interested :-)
thanks for your comment!
