I don't understand what self-hosting is. I can see the benefits of having more control but I'm interested in what it really mean. I currently use jcink and apart from the $79 per year for the privilege of having no content limitations I feel I have plenty of control.

 

But, I love stats and I noticed people talk about that. With the jcink site I can see some basic stats but I'm guessing with self-hosting you can see everything similar to having your own website, and I do love the idea of having the site name minus the jcink hosting part.

 

I have my own website and I use the wordpress admin panels and themes. Are you talking about something similar to this?  Buying the domain and hosting? Can those sites use the coding from, let's say, a jcink skins or do I need to learn coding, or buy a skin, that fits with whatever I purchase?

 

I know this thread isn't for these sorts of questions and I'm happy to start a new one if preferred by the mods.

I do not prefer self-hosting! But as my favorite software is MyBB and the only free alternative isn't... one that I care much for now that Icyboards is dead, I am using @isoldehn's hosting services! H
