Tips For Choosing A Web Hosting Company

How can I register domain names for my clients?

I’m from India (Chennai) I’ve planned to start a Web hosting company here. I got the server configuration and i’m going to use linux/windows. The problem is how can I register Domain Name for my Clients. If I purchase a dedicated server they provide all details but i have to pay in monthly basis but i’m not interested in dedicated servers and resellers. So I want my own server in my office. What should I do now? What is cpanel/plesk how it will help me? Where can I get cpanel/plesk?

Hello,

It is never suggested to have server in office, as connectivity and speed will be not up to the mark.

You need to take a lease server in DC ( monthly payment basis ) and for booking domains be a reseller at some ICANN Accredited Registrar.

Search in google for "ICANN Accredited Registrar India"

For Linux, CPANEL is best to use. these panels helps you to create and manage hosting accounts.

Regards,

Vinay

Cheapest website hosting and package in UK?

HI every one! I am just finished with my personel website and want to publish it on web. I cannot afford alot of money. is there any way i can upload a website in a cheap way with www. xyz.co.uk etc.. and also i dont know how to upload a website built in dreamweaver. I will appriciate your reply and time. Great Day. imi

Hi,

As far as register, the first thing you want is a cheap .co.uk domain name. A quick search of google and I found this: http://www.uk-cheapest.co.uk/
Just register your domain name. Then you need some web space. Cheapest I know of is Hostgator which is pretty cheap. If you sign up for their baby plan you can enter the coupon code ‘1CentReview’ and get it for $0.01 for the first month, then just enter the domain you bought in step 2. Or you can get cheaper plans per month (more limits though), take a look at them here: http://tinyurl.com/2597dlg

Now that you have that set up, you’ll need to log in to where you registered your domain and if you log in to hostgator you will see where there are your ‘nameservers’ (along the left hand side). Copy them into the name server settings for your domain and away you go.

To move your site from Dreamweaver to your hosting account, go into DW and make a new site. In the ‘Remote’ settings select the hostname as ftp.yourdomain.co.uk and enter your username/password for hostgatr. Also, set the default folder to public_html/ and select ‘Use Passive FTP’.

Click OK (fill out any other settings you want, mainly your local web folder – the place where your files are kept on your computer). Then, on the right (or left depending on your DW set up) select the Files section, highlight all the files you want to upload and then click the arrow pointing up! It will take a little while depending on how big your files are, but after that, your site will be live!

Godd luck with it!

web site design access?

This is what my web designer is asking. I have no idea how to handle these questions so he can put up my site. I was hoping I could have this answered and give him freedom to set up the site without giving up my password.

What we need to make sure your yahoo.com hosting has
>> what we need:
>> 1) The ability to create a mysql database.
>> 2) Is it a windows server or linux server?
>> 3) Is there a control panel? Ensim, pleask, cpanel,
>> etc.
>> 4) The ability to run .php files and set
>> permissions.
>> 5) ftp information. Should be really basic,
>> EXAMPLE:
>> location: ftp://overpasscreative.com
>> username: toliver
>> password: 123123
>>

>> 1) The ability to create a mysql database.

If you signed up for your hosting through Yahoo! Small Business, and bought the Starter, Standard or Professional package, yes, you get MySQL with that.

http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/webhosting/php/

>> 2) Is it a windows server or linux server?

If it is with Yahoo! Small business, it’s a *nix server. I believe Yahoo primarily hosts off FreeBSD but that shouldn’t matter unless you are getting a really, really complex install.

>> 3) Is there a control panel? Ensim, pleask, cpanel,
>> etc.

There is a control panel. It’s not one of those; it’s a custom designed control panel that Yahoo! set up.

>> 4) The ability to run .php files and set
>> permissions.

Again, assuming this is a Small Business hosting account, you can run PHP. The version and config of PHP, I’m not sure about. I’m not sure the extent of control you have on being able to set file and folder permissions, but you should be able to do so via the control panel.

http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/webhosting/php/

>> 5) ftp information. Should be really basic,
>> EXAMPLE:
>> location: ftp://overpasscreative.com
>> username: toliver
>> password: 123123

http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/webhosting/gftp/

The short answer is, it sounds like you don’t know enough to be of help to your developer and he’s going to have to do all the heavy and the light lifting.

So, the short of it is, it makes sense for you to simply give him your user name and password and trust him not to abuse the system. Change your password once he’s done.

Again, the problem is you’re not going to be able to help yourself, so you have to trust whomever you are going to use to not screw you over. If you don’t, time to find someone else whom you do trust.

What’s the cheapest website host that offers a package for a website with low storage but high bandwidth?

My website is very small in size (it’s mainly text; it only has a couple images) but could be accessed by a lot of people. I’m looking for the cheapest hosting package for my needs – low storage but high bandwidth. And one with a yearly rate is preferred over a monthly one.

I recommend one of these: http://www.tophostingpicks.com

iPage has the best offer right now.
Their standard price is $84/year ($6.95) but they have
a 50% sale, one year of hosting for $42.00.

Their plan includes:

Unlimited disk space
Unlimited bandwidth
Free domain name

Price: $42/year ($3.50)

They have one of the most popular hosting platforms, which currently hosts over a million websites. They’re also one of the oldest hosting companies, founded in 1998.

Can’t rewrite my index.htm in my public_html?

I’m using Philhosting (Linux Plan) as my host for my website. I’m using Smart FTP and FileZilla for uploading files on my ftp. Now, I cannot rewrite my index.htm on my public_html because it says that it’s a read only file, I tried changing it in the properties but still an error that says that it’s an read only file comes out. what will I do? and in my status (cpanel) my disk usage becomes .01/200.00 MB but at my last visit, i think it is already 5mb(or higher)/200mb.
@screaming
sorry but what is ssh? Im a newbie in website stuff.

@factor
I tried deleting and renaming the index.htm to trash.htm but this error comes out, "Rename/move failure: Read-only file system : /public_html//public_html/trash.htm"

first off for the most part c-panel doesn’t gauge fileuse very well.
You can try a few things to get it to work properly.

1. delete the old file replace with the new. if your cpanel allows for file management thru the web.
2. rename the old index file to somthing different and upload the new one.
Update:
okay problem maybe your ftp program itself, downloaded it and it doesnt give any info on whats on the remote server.
WS_FTP LE is free and allows you to do what you need to. http://download.oldversion.com/wsftp6.exe

after downloading and installing, login to your Ftp as usual. browse to your Index.html file and right click on it. lots of options will come up go down to "chmod (unix)" by checking all the boxes there and accepting it should allow you to replace it. If it doesnt do like screaming suggested and talk to your webhost. Hope this helps

thats my two cents.

Cheap Internet Website Hosting?

Hi. My new affiliate site at http://www.cheapsitehosting.biz is now up. I need some advice on marketting the site.

Thanks guys.

For gaining traffic to your site without cost, you will be looking at some time being spent.

Back links are very important and can arguably be the best way to increase your website exposure. Effective back links are one way links (meaning not a link exchange) from other websites to yours. For example, had you put a link to your website in your question, you would have created a back link as yahoo instantly indexes the Q&A section of their website. Even Google picks it up. You can build back links in placing your url in ads such as craigslist, creating or comenting on blogs on wordpress and myspace as well as other blogging websites. These are all methods that give you white hat back links.

Caution: do not pay for your back links through back linking companies. This is considered black hat SEO and will actually drop your ranking or get you suspended all together from the big boys of search engines.

As far as paid methods, look at pay per click as a great option. PPC is the process of advertising your business on a search engine within the sponsored results. You choose what keyword phrases you are willing to pay for being in, I.e. Website design.For cost effectiveness, consider narrowing your results as much as possible. For example, Sacramento website design instead of website design would be a more focused result and would by proxy cost much less than the broad term.

SIA Professional Services has an articles section in their website which has a ton of website marketing tips that should help you at www.siaservices.net just go to their blog or their articles section.

Be sure you are submitting your website on a regular basis, especially whenever you are doing some good updates on your site. The search engines will see your site being updated on a regular basis and index you accordingly. There are some free submission sites, but I have seen in my experience that those don’t nearly perform as well on a regular basis as professional SEO and marketing companies.

There is plenty more that you can do, but hopefully this give you a good starting point.

Good Luck and hope this helps.
