Your attempt at Encryption + Signing was successful!  :-D

Speaking Personally, I can think of no 'Cons' associated with Uploading
Your Key to one or more Keyservers.  I have heard all the 'horror
stories' about Spam Bots harvesting Email Addresses from Keyservers but
I place no stock in that.  However, if You feel uncomfortable in
uploading Your Key then consider placing it on Big Lumber
[www.biglumber.com] and then providing a Link to You Key either in a
Comment Line added to Your gpg.conf File or, using Enigmail go to
Account Settings -> OpenPGP and in that area place Your Big Lumber Link
in the appropriate box so it will appear in the message header.  This
will prove more convenient that attaching Your Key to messages.

This also brings the Question; do You yet have a gpg.conf File?

JOHN ;)
