When I was running my website (I'm not anymore) I was running it from a computer in my house, with name service provided (for free) by opendns. I didn't have a static IP address, but opendns has a script that updates its nameserver every time your IP address changes. The point being, by using opendns you don't have to pay your upstream provider for a static IP address or for nameservice. Last time I checked, most ISPs were charging around 400 or 500 dollars (US) per month for that stuff.
