I believe that is correct. As my little bit of cyberspace isn't used commercially, there is a means of enabling people to contact me should they wish to but any transactions are done in the real world. Whilst there are many obvious advantages to having a presence on the web, there are quite a few chalked up for not putting everything out there...

I have had a 'personal', bloggy type website since 2009 (www.overland-rovers.com with my details readily available on whois. I have no contact details on the website and have only received a couple of 'spam' emails in all that time.
Personally I don't think it's worth paying for but that's just my opinion.

I agree with Gartmore. Why pay to keep secret?

Well I guess from a security point of view, not everyone wants their home address easily accessible to everyone, especially advertising the fact that your home contains lots of expensive camera and computer gear.
