2Well, sometimes "don't" is the proper and professional answer... but that's a different discussion for a different time. I would have figured that was a prime target for duplicates, I just never expected that much ... variety ... in the wording.– AnonJrCommented May 17, 2010 at 18:23

Don't is definitely not the answer, the answer comes in regards to availability guidelines. If you only LIKE to have your site up, be all means host from home. If you NEED your site up. Use a real host.– Chris MarisicCommented Jan 11, 2011 at 19:03

1What's scary is the same answer applies to "How to parse HTML with RegEx" - again the ideal answer is "Don't" but there are some limited cases where it's possible ;)– Zhaph - Ben DuguidCommented Apr 5, 2012 at 9:52

1As of today, a search for +host +server +home turns up 1,153 results on SF. Not all of them are this question, but it appears that the vast majority are.– Michael HamptonCommented Oct 4, 2012 at 23:36

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. stack-overflow), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
