Working in tech having a blog or a portfolio is a fantastic tool for self promotion, but running that site on Umbraco can be more costly than you’re willing to accept and hosting it yourself on a Raspberry Pi?

Then we’ll take these performance and costing learnings to apply them to more complex (and profitable!) examples in a work environment.
