Site Name

I decided to name my fanlisting collective Beehive, since I have been using my drawing of a bee with a pair of glasses as my main avatar on the Internet, I figured it would be a good idea to name a subsite of mine something related to bees.

Furthermore, Beehive is a fitting name for a fanlisting collective, as beehives house honey bees and the honey they collect, while this website houses a collection of all the fanlistings I created, maintain, joined and have applied to join.

History

I have been joining fanlistings since I built my own website, Leilukin's Hub, in September 2022. The first fanlistings I joined were for Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords.

I have always found fanlistings a neat idea to gather and discover other people who share your interests across the world, as listing your country is a requirement when you apply to join a fanlisting.

Since June 2024, I began to participate more in the personal web and the independent web, including joining more fanlistings. What made me finally decided to create my own fanlisting collective, was building my first fanlisting, which was for Cassette Beasts.

I was new to PHP when I started considering building fanlistings myself, as my main site is a static website, so my Cassette Beasts fanlisting, which is powered by BellaBuffs, was my first foray in learning to code in PHP.

Thankfully, despite my inexperience in PHP, I was able to apply the programming knowledge I learned from building my main site and taking online coding courses to build my fanlisting. To give myself more practice in coding in PHP, I decided to code my fanlisting collective in PHP as well.

Eventually, both my first fanlisting and my fanlisting collective was born and officially live on 2 July 2024.

Originally, Beehive was hosted on InfinityFree. On 25 July 2024, this site, along with my main site Leilukin's Hub, migrated to Hostinger.
