If I have a fast internet connection i.e. DSL, cable, can I host my own online services?

Technically, it may be possible to host your own services on a very fast connection but it is not recommended. Most internet service providers will not allow you to have hosting services on your internet connection, also in outsourcing your hosted services, you avoid the headaches and lack of support that comes with using your own servers. Plus, your internet performance will suffer significantly if you do choose to host your own online services.
