Things you depend on running your own Web Site

There's quite a big list of dependencies when dealing with running your own web site. Obviously you're busy adding content and doing all kinds of Search Engine Optimization - but there are a couple factors that can be a threat to your web site and it staying up.

Here's a short overview of things that can (and most likely will, at some point) go wrong!

• High Server Load due to High Amounts of Traffic and Server Processes
• Hardware Failures on your Web Server
• DNS Issues causing your Web Site to be unaccessible

If you're at the point where your site is important to you - consider getting some Server Monitoring Services, offered by most high-end web hosting companies... Some private hosts like yxyservers even offer SMS monitoring and 24/7 web cam view of the server in HD.
