Choosing a Domain Names

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 7:54 PM


One of the most important things that you will have to do when setting up your website is picking a domain name. This step is crucial and it can to some extent make or break your website. It's also one of the most difficult steps as most good domain names already are taken. However, it's not impossible task so don't despair - start exercising your creative muscles and take the time it takes and you won't have anything to worry about.
Generic Domain Name - This is the classic way of picking domain name but there is a problem arising with this type. As it's a first, first served basis pretty much all the good ones are taken. Should you find one - grab it at once.
Because of the fact that generic domain names most often already are taken the unconventional domain names are growing in strength. Take the del.icio.us - it's an extremely popular site that has managed to go around the problem. Start brainstorming - who knows? You just might come up with a name that will stick in the mind of your visitors.
Another tip is to keep the name short as this will make it more memorable and easier to spell. If it's too long you risk the chance of losing visitors as they won't remember the name of your site. It's also a good idea to use a keyword in the domain name. This is because it will increase the chances of getting a high rank on the search engines.

The Two Copy Rule

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 7:53 PM



When you write your web site, you'll need two copies, one on your web host and one on your hard drive. The reasons for this are, firstly that you need a backup and secondly when you're working on your site, you don't work on it live. When you work on the copy of your HTML pages on your hard disk, it's called "editing the local copy." The copy on the web host is called the "remote copy." You will edit the files from a folder in your hard drive, and once you're down, you'll upload them to your web host. That's when everyone can view it. You can always view your files on your hard drive before you upload them.
  • Open your web browser.
  • Choose File -> Open... File, (Browse).
  • Find the folder with your HTML files.
  • Double-click the one you're working on, and it will be in your web browser.

How a Website works

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 7:52 PM



Programming aside, a website basically consists of a number of files stored in the root directory of your web hosting storage space. When somebody types in the domain name address in a web browser or clicks on a link to your website, the web browser sends a request to you web host server. If all is good the server responds with proper data, that is displayed in the browser as you website. The first file that will be requested from the web browser when somebody types in your domain name, is the index-file

How to start your own Business

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 7:50 PM

Let's start with the programming bit. If you want to start a website, the first thing you need to understand is that a website is always built on one or a mix of scripting/programming languages. The most common and basic is HTML, that won't take too long to learn and will allow you to create simple website pages. This language is the base for others like PHP and ASP, but can, if learned properly, solely be used in creating full scale dynamic websites.

Home servers usually a single machine placed in a private residence can be used to host one or more web sites from a usually consumer-grade broadband connection. These can be purpose-built machines or more commonly old PCs. Some ISPs actively attempt to block home servers by disallowing incoming requests to TCP port 80 of the user's connection and by refusing to provide Static Ip Address. A common way to attain a reliable DNS hostname is by creating an account with a dynamic DNS service. A dynamic DNS service will automatically change the IP address that a URL points to when the IP address changes

Colocation web hosting service

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 7:34 PM

similar to the dedicated web hosting service, but the user owns the colo server; the hosting company provides physical space that the server takes up and takes care of the server. This is the most powerful and expensive type of the web hosting service. In most cases, the colocation provider may provide little to no support directly for their client's machine, providing only the electrical, Internet access, and storage facilities for the server. In most cases for colo, the client would have his own administrator visit the data center on site to do any hardware upgrades or changes.
