  I will NOT pay $300 a year for my personal blog, and when I tried the already pricey $99 option it said I have already exceeded that storage limit?! This is just a little blog I keep about my family for their future, and I will not pay that much to keep it up and running! Happy to switch to a new FREE site if that is what it takes. When did this change and what can I do?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  WordPress.com provides quite a substantial amount of storage. If you are finding that you are storing that many files, you may want to consider storing them in a third-party photo site such as Flickr.

  @shellstrum, you can do as @riwinokur suggests or add more storage space here for $20 per year: https://store.wordpress.com/premium-upgrades/extra-storage/
