I used to think the same way. But, propagation of your content is a lot more important than just feeling good that it's hosted on your own blog.

I would argue, as a modern professional, propagation of your FQDN is also very important.

You'd be surprised at how much traffic you can get if your blog is properly indexed on Google.
