In practice, this means a very simple thing – a big uncle can support your site for an unlimited period of time, regardless of traffic and authority, and pays for it by showing simple ads. Even if you don’t have time to deal with the site at all. But if you forget to pay for hosting an independent site, it will be deleted with all the information. In addition, running an independent site has many pitfalls – from small server and software glitches to DDoS attacks and hackers. They are all solvable, but they require much more time and money due to the same economies of scale. Being small is bad and unprofitable.
