I installed an extension to my website to make the bitcoin as payment. I am just a newbie so im confused.  In the settings, i need a RPC username and password.  He recommend to use blockchain.info to get it, i think the rpc username and password will be my  username and password of my blockchain.info.  But what i think of that is my btc will be deposited at blockchain.info which i dont like, because i think it's not safe and it will be safer if i save it on my wallet on my pc.  The developer of the extension told me to install bitcoind to my server if i dont want to use the blockchain.info . What does it mean? Install in the root folder of my website? What is the purpose of  bitcoind? How to do it? Please enlighten me. thanks

It's a command-line interface for Bitcoin called Bitcoin Daemon. Look at wiki for how to and that rpc login details goes into bitcoin configuration file. You need to specify rpcuser & rpcpassword over there.
