I think certs are good for certian areas like A+, Cisco, and other technical areas that you cant really show on paper but you also need experience in the field as well.

As far as hosting is concern, i dont see a certification is necessary, you need to acquire knowledge and skills either if you are looking for a job or starting your own business.

A few years ago I was looking at doing some of those exams but when asked employees about their worth it wasn't worth it.

If certmagic costs then it's a waste of money, heaps of free info out there but at the end of the day certs show you know how to read and answer questions, a portfolio shows you can do the work
