Those all sound like reasonable best practices for building a website.
- chronic81 10y agoIt is unfortunate that you grew up with such web tools as it is trivial to host them yourself.

- samwillis 10y agoIf I use self hosted analytics and exception tracking I have to ensure its up-to-date with security patches. The pros will do a better job at this than anyone will self hosting. Concentrate on your core business, knowing when to outsource is important. As someone running an ecommerce website without using advertising conversion tracking from to our various advertising networks it would simply not be measurable or cost effective. It is an essential part of how the systems works.
