<p>I'm not sure from blockchain.info because its a wallet.</p>

<p>You should use an address that you have to download to your computer and use a keystore file with password. No one has the keystore file or password so it'll be safe.</p>

<p>Try:
<a href="https://bitcoin.org/en/download" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://bitcoin.org/en/download</a>
and there are many others.</p>

<p>You're using another company and if they go out of business (I doubt blockchain.info would ever) then you may lose your coin.</p>

I know that address is safe, I'm worried that it constantly changes and I don't even know to see the history of all receiving addresses...

Theorically speaking, Bitcoin was designed to use 1 address per transaction and not to reuse them. Be it as it may, users always do the opposite to what developers create (trust me, I know). In your case, you may have received a transaction and the system gave you a new address - they don't change randomly.

<p>Wallet from blockchain.info change the receiving address from time to time. I guess the rationale is to protect my privacy or something.</p>

<p>In reality I'd be more secure in my head if I had the same BTC address...</p>

<p>Solution to that would be to create own vanity address, but in the meanwhile - is it OK if I publish the address on the website and will it work in 6 months?</p>

<p><strong>EDIT / UPDATE:</strong> Wish the changing addresses were better explained - <a href="https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Deterministic_wallet" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Deterministic_wallet</a> - I was quite seriously worried why my address is changing.</p>

You should use an address that you have to download to your computer and use a keystore file with password. No one has the keystore file or password so it'll be safe.

Try:

and there are many others.
