It does seem like cost are negligible today, but on deeper analysis theres a lot of costs beyond simply hosting.
Just from memory for my startup (Authy.com), initial costs were:
Domain: $1000+
Design: $3000
Video: $3000
Hosting: $400
Depending on your skills this initial costs will vary. An although I agree you don't need external investment to cover them, you should at least plan to invest $10,000US to cover your initial costs.
