How much in total are you paying for your hosting a month under the new plans? That amount is the maximum amount of money you can save by spending days/weeks/months migrating everything to your own server and assuming near-total responsibility for your own hosting.
You'll be in a better position if you can grow your revenue instead.
- wishiknew 12y agoEven if I had more revenue I would rather have a more unified hosting setup with billing occurring at one place. The situation is pretty confusing for me right now - I'm a minimalist and I like simplicity. Speaking of that, I've just realized that if I could simply get rid of WordPress, I wouldn't need such complexity. And I think this is what I must do. What kind of junk is a piece of software that requires so many engineers' work (theme designers, plugin developers and sys admins) to load at normal speeds? This is ridiculous, my site is mostly static. I've been playing with Hugo (gohugo.io) this weekend for another project and I've just realized it might be a perfect match.

If this is what you do instead of a full time job at someone else's company... > Even if I had more revenue A hard problem you will suck at most of the time. > I would rather have ... A fun distraction that you can easily, and enjoyably, work on forever. When you finish you can just invent new technical challenges for yourself. > The most dangerous way to lose time is not to spend it having fun, but to spend it doing fake work. http://paulgraham.com/selfindulgence.html http://paulgraham.com/selfindulgence.html
