I’ve been actively researching ways to quickly and effectively
build content to websites. And while blogs tend to be near the
top of the list, there are other opportunities out there.
One such opportunity is a Wiki. And while a Wiki won’t suit all
sites, there are those that can use a Wiki effectively. If you
think you are one of those sites, take a look at this article.

Thinking About Free or Cheap Hosting For Your Site? Think Again!

Posted on Oct.29, 2008, under Web Hosting No Comments

A host is a server which provides a home for your website on the
World Wide Web. Just as your computer contains all your files,
so a host contains all the files needed to run your website. Why
can’t you just keep all those files on your own computer?
Because that would mean users would have to connect directly to
your computer to see your website. Not a good idea–it wouldn’t
be secure and it would make your machine run like a tired snail.
With a host, [...]


Questions To Ask a Hosting Company Before You Start

Posted on Oct.22, 2008, under Web Hosting No Comments

There are several types of hosting. Among them are:
Free hosting
Free sites are for people who’s sites are small and do not expect much traffic. Personal sites about your family or hobbies are perfect for free web site hosts. I do not recommend this for any business, promoting or selling a product, or expect a lot of traffic. Usually you cannot use a domain name for your site. You must use a domain and site path provided by the company.

When is it time to change your web hosting provider?

Posted on Oct.18, 2008, under Web Hosting No Comments

Building a web site is the easy part, getting it hosted right is
difficult. There are many options like Host way, iPowerWeb,
Homestead, which are paid hosts and many free ones like
GeoCities.
The cost of a paid service would be between US$ 5 and US$10 a
month. The most immediate advantage is that you pass on the
burden of storage, security, and bandwidth to another’s
shoulders.
A good host whether paid or free should have in place:
* Usable web design tools. And an updated server software.
* E-commerce advice [...]
