New information about self-hosted solutions
Line 15:
=== Server based ===
A server polls content, tracks changes and logs data, sending alerts in the form of email notifications, [[webhook]]s, [[RSS]]. Typically, an associated website with a configuration is managed by the user. Some services also have a mobile device application which connects to a [[cloud server]] and provides alerts to the mobile device.
 
=== Self-hosted based ===
A relatively newer approach, which lays between Server based and Client based is to use [[Self-hosting]], where the software which would normally run on a separate server runs on your own hardware locally, generally means that the software provides a miniature webserver with an interface instead of a classic [[graphical user interface]] provided by an application.
