I have blogs on blogger and I have blogs on my own domain. While there are advantages to blogger, the main one being that it is free, there are times when having dedicated server hosting is needed. My larger political blog as an example has just about outgrown it's managed hosting solutions original set up. I've upgraded as far as I can go and at times still experience site crashing from the visitor load.
I'm not to the point where I need to consider colocation services but your website might be near that point if you have your own server and have discovered it is not enough to meet your needs. The easiest way to lose customers and readers is to have them not be able to access your website, so it's well worth the cost to make sure they can access you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year with minimal downtime.
