This is the first video in a new series I will be working on taking you through the considerations you need to think about before you try hosting your own web server, mail server, or game server at home. This is easy to do at home if you have a good internet connection, an old computer, a firewall, and some computer skills. My son hosts a minecraft server, for example, and he is only 11.

So buy some solar panels and wind turbines to help power your server= guaranteed profit, especially if someone pays you monthly to host
Hello,
I have a server room at home too, another you didn’t talk on your vid is the physical security (theft, fire, …)
For prevent that, i keep a fresh backup out of my home regulary, but it’s realy a thing you need to concider if you host critical data (not for the avaliability but for the data itself. source code, accounting, production server backup, …) at your home.
I also deal with full disk encryption for avoid any data leak from a stolen piece of hardware.
What is your bandwidth?
I have
Down: 60mb
Up: 9mb
That is all that is available at the moment from our ISP.
I can get a double router setup (2 bonded pairs)
And that would double it to
120
18
1 static IP
$55.00 per month
However, the cost that the ISP would charge, would not be worth it.
About 10 minuted down the road, is a super nice office building that I am thinking about in the future.
The internet speeds in that area, for a business account with the local cable company, is around:
100 / 100
Or, you can get as high a
1GB / 1GB
Depending on if they have the equipment in the area.
So, what are you getting for speed?
And what is your cost?
I thought you were going to talk about a HOME server for movies, and data sharing and PC back up services. I miss having a Novell server around …
thanks

so funny
yeah i bought my server cheap, its and old dell poweredge 1950 iii , it
came with 2 quad cores and all i did was upgrade the ram to 32gb (which
only cost 35$) and the hard drives. I have about 160$ invested and it
runs everything like a dream, im currently hosting a ARK, Minecraft,
Teamspeak, and Rust server and im not even above 30% usage of and parts.
It has been and exciting experience to have it as i never used a
server before i just wanted to share my story.
I couldn’t imagine how much it would be if i rented all these server from hosting sights all in all i think im saving a few hundred dollars a year.
What about Internet? I mean sometimes my Internet provider randomly shuts down, and it can be for 10-15 minutes a week.
Wow. All that sensitive hardware atop that STATIC CHARGED Carpet??
I don’t even see a single Anti-Static Mat! YIKES!!
I’ll do this when I buy my own house.
I thought this was Eric The Car Guy.
Sir please give your what’s app no
How much money on average can you make from server hosting at home?
Oh god the noise.
Will Cable Internet work?
the thing to consider is what you want to do with it how much bandwith you need and how secure it needs to be. most people I find just want a cheap decent server for their website that gets less then 500 hits a day and do not want to pay $20 a month for that service for years to come as it adds up to $220 and they want something they can do with parts they have and spending less then $50 to upgrade things that need it. for that you can do it at home with a old pc or buy a old server on ebay or at thrift shops. if you are going to use a old computer you want to upgrade the cpu if possible and may the ram and the biggest thing you want a good internet connection and ssd hard drive I see small business servers bult from old computers all the time in fact most of the time I deal with used car lots they are hosting their website on a old junker you can get on ebay for under $100

I just want to be able to say that I sleep next to a server rack.
5$ static IP “On the expensive side” xD my ISP wants 20$ a month >.>
@LDSreliance
This is ridiculous.
You have forgotten the most important thing for Home Server Hosting, what is your upload Bandwidth?
The hardware is not a big problem. And if you host important data for others, you don’t want to do that with old desktop hardware.
What you need is hardware that is able to use ECC RAM and you need a safe setup for data storage. Because you don’t want to have your costumer lose data.
And then there is still the question of your agreement with your ISP. He may not allow you to host services for others.
And one more thing. Even if you have all this, it only might be good enough for web hosting, but definitely not for game hosting because ping time will be terrible.
For Game hosting you want to have the server running at a datacenter with a very good and fast connection to the big internet exchange points.
Hosting is also not okay if you are only one person. Who looks after the servers in the case of when you are injured and laying in a hospital? Where is your responsibility for your servers if they get compromised?
And you need something against DDOS attacks.
What you do is unprofessional and amateurish. I wouldn’t host anything on your servers.
You say you so so much but you walk around and keep your equipment on carpets?
This is really helpful, wish me luck!
what is the firewall hardware thing name and dose it block ddos did you test it??
what is use of this
can i juse a old firewall router like: WatchGuard FireBox x2500 still this days whitout problems?
Thank you. I appreciate the time you spent piecing together this very informative video.
Your 300W would cost me 600 Euro a year in Germany. Thats a backpacker holiday.
I’m using a 60W business home server, but even this is turned off at night (unless batch jobs are pending).
Did you know – We can see right up your nose.. ;-(
TIP – try holding the camera a little higher – perhaps at eye level .. Good info though –
I want to learn this stuff and will be following your video series..
