I'm thinking of hosting a website from it

Great way to have your entire LAN rooted. Recommend this 10/10.

Sorry if i'm being ignorant but i didn't really understand. Could you elaborate?

It's just a bad idea to host any kind of "active"(?) service on your local network. Even worse if you expose it to the public.
If you can get it online without connecting it to your home network, you could setup a honeypot on it and check it frequently for some any goodies.
If desired, you could even do something more frisky, such as hosting an anonymous ngircd service, or an XMPP service. God knows we need an even bigger abundance of those.
