Hosting - Refloow/Steam-Card-Bot-PRO GitHub Wiki
There is multiple ways to host the script
1. Manually, on your own desktop or device such as raspberry PI
- Upsides:
- Secure as the device you are using. (Could be extremely insecure if its actively used PC)
- Downsides:
- Could cost more in power then paying a reputable host (Depends on the device)
- Device has to be up and running 24/7
even tho it wont use much resources
- You have to clean the machine to cool properly so there will be downtimes to your service.
- You relay to your internet provider. In case of downtime, your service will be offline
2. Using a reputable host
(RECOMMENDED)
- Upsides:
- Secure hosting (Dont worry about the security of files)
- You don't relay on your internet provider (Don't worry about service going offline)
- Has a fixed price per month usually 5$ per month (Could be cheaper then the power if you hosted script yourself)
- Up and running 24/7
- More secure network then your local machine that could be targeted by any virus if in active use.
- Downsides:
- Secure as the machines of the host (Still much better then the local pc, but there is risk of data breach which host will be responsible for
