Yeah – for sure… you need a power generator too…. what happens during a lightning storm and your sites need updates?
You need designers too…. web designers and graphic designers (there is a BIG difference.) It’s too much for one person to be the hosting manager, the designer, the promotionals/sales person, the copywriter, and the graphics and imaging person…..
Basicly, to be successful, start getting other people involved.
You can either create your own or hire a company to host your site. Either way, you have to have it on a computer and using your personal computer as a web host is not the most desireable, although it is possible.
For the most part I agree with rabble rouser. But there are companies that will allow you to co-host with them, for much lesser cost. I would look at that first before you try to spend the money.
You can go with other companies to do your web hosting. Depending on the nature of the sites you are building you may or may not need a dedicated server. Web hosting companies do offer this.
In conjunction with what rabble said. Owning your own dedicated server is more work for one person – which means you need someone to maintain your servers, perform backups, etc. A web host will do this for you.
Keep in mind murphy’s laws are strong in this area. If a server can go down – it will, and at the most inappropriate time. Try explaining to your date on Valentines that dinner is off, and you have to go to work… Yikes.
