This Is A Reason Why You Must Own A Piece Of Internet Real Estate
I was feed my son the other morning and he was tucking into his favourite bottle of milk and well milk so I was just flicking through the TV and caught something that I found very interesting.
It was a report on a program about different technology and blogging was the subject.
A reporter had his Youtube account disabled and everything on the account had been deleted.
This guy had everything on there, from personal videos, work videos and family stuff and with the blink of an eye the lot was gone.

Well what did you think? How easy is it to lose everything that you have worked for.
OK so the guy got his account reinstated, but would you want to spend all that time trying to get your hard work back?
How would you feel if all your hard work was gone at the click of a mouse.
I can tell you it feels like crap, I lost two Facebook accounts so I know like a lot of you how it feels.
I think this highlights the exact reason why you must have your own self hosted blog. This problem could not happen with something that you own.
You do not own your Youtube channel, Facebook page, Twitter account or any of the other social media site or other tools we use. You are subject to someone else’s rules and therefore you have absolutely no choice but to follow them.
Having your own blog is like owning your own piece of cyber-space. It’s your and it can’t be closed down.
