However, I think that I find it hard to imagine that more knowledge and understanding is ever a bad thing. Wouldn't you agree that anything worthwhile has some obstacles to overcome? @HTMKSteve Yeah I actually don't think that the monetary savings is all that worthwhile, especially if the blog is being used as any source of income. It's also probably not really that worthwhile when you have a large readership (although I suppose then you could just upgrade your connection on the income from it). So seeing as how much more traffic you get on your site than mine, I could see why it might be more worthwhile for me and less so for you. However I think that it's nice to have piece of mind that I control where my data is (it's not in some data center far off and away) as well as all that I've learned (practically speaking) about running a server. For me, hosting has always just been a hobby and another thing to learn from. As it usually turns out, to each his own. @william
