This is a very good point. I host my blog with a vanity domain name[1]. The domain name was accidentally taken away from me[2] for a while due to which my blog became unreachable.
As a result of this experience, I now host a mirror of my blog using GitHub Pages[3]. Further, I have made sure that the entire blog can be downloaded[4] to local filesystem and viewed locally, i.e., all inter-linking is done using relative paths only.
