I don't recommend unmanaged unless you know what you are doing, you have to keep that up to date and secure, and the truth is most people can't. If your business is generating money pay to be taken care of so you can focus on the business.
ya totally, just go with cheap is fine for now, until you have revenue off that thing no reason to upgrade.
It is super easy to migrate WordPress up to a new plan down the road, usually the host can take care of that if you upgrade too.
Super great point! When I owned/ran Site5.com we guaranteed only VPS backups, and only on damages up to 1 year of what you were spending with us. To my knowledge that is the only time backups have been guaranteed in the issue.
I put my backups on a variety of services, so I have at least 2...

Ya with static I would stick with nginx as it will be quicker IMO. Sounds like a great setup, you are freeing up a ton of resources by not hitting php/mysql everytime. Nice job :)
I recommend SiteGround.com and their Europe location, good provider. Or check out Linode.com and use their EU or I think they have a UK location. You might want to go for a Xen/KVM based VPS, far better than a dedicated server IMO. Usually that means you are getting Raid protection or...
I'd recommend getting something external to your hosting company, nobody really guarantees backups and better you have their backups + your own that you control in case of emergency.
Code Guard is quite good.
Are you WP based or what are you backing up?
They are both good, you just have to trust the person managing it and have them back it up with some stats. In my exp nginx is better, but there are some interesting things happening with http2 and apache.
A good question is what are you hosting? Static site? WordPress? Are you using caching...
Home office, when I need to really focus and write something I usually end up at a coffee shop.
Early in my career I had a little private office in a co-working environment, and tried it a few other times but just found it distracting. If I was working by myself or in a group of 1 to 3 it might...
I wouldn't say that is true, being self employed gives you more control over where you pay taxes. For example, you can make your salary smaller and take the rest through a LLC / S corp drop down which wouldn't be liable to certain types of taxes others pay.

Yep of course :), I hate spam and crappy posts. I am mostly here to learn and figure out more if affiliates would be interested in our product and learn about the community at large and catch up. I've been semi out of the affiliate game since we sold that network in 2007.
Yep I am trying to...

I was an affiliate marketer back in 05 to 08, ended up selling the network and a lot of content sites and moving back into hosting by buying a company there. Now I am running Pressed.net, a white label managed WordPress hosting platform, basically allows anyone to launch a hosting...
