I guess some simple sites are more simple than others. The one in the first post does not seem that simple to me and I fear it could overwhelm someone just starting out.

With a lot of hobby sites it wouldn’t really matter that much if the site went down for a few hours or even a day. Bob can read about frank’s pet widget another day.

If It’s a static site, the files would be on the creators local machine and can be backed up to disk and would be no different to what’s on the server. So no multiple daily back ups needed.
