This. Hosting at home might be cheaper if you are serving a lot of data, but in that case, the speed’s going to kill you.
I’m a keen self-hoster, but my public facing websites are on a $4 VPS (Binary Lane - which I recommend since you’re in Aus). In addition to less hassle, you get faster speeds and (probably) better uptime.

Good question, I will want to host more in the future, im trying to keep costs as low as possible.

Depending on what you are trying to host and where you live power usage and your own hardware might be more expensive than the VPS you require to host those.
