But the real truth is that as long as we’re putting our work in someone else’s hands, we forfeit our ownership over it. When we create a personal website, we own it – at least to the extent that the internet, beautiful in its amorphous existence, can be owned.

I really liked this article by Tobias van Schneider about his thoughts on running your own website and why owning our content is a good idea.
