hi everyone,

I was just about to self-host a Ghost blog but then was warned that my ISP might change my external IP address at any time, so I would need to pay for a static IP address.

Is that true?

(I’d not seen much about that in stuff I’ve looked up so far about self hosting)

    Yeah that’s another option as well… Services like dynu.com or smtp2go.com do exist… but you have to pay for them and there is a risk that the service can open/read your messages.

      chance you take with pretty much everything you don’t control. I do use as much as I can to protect emails (not that much really)
