which is the right webhosting company?

THE RIGHT WEBHOSTING COMPANY CPWEBHOSTING
Choosing the right web hosting or host company is the most important thing for the success of your website. Downtime leads to losing customers. Think about this for a second. Someone reads your advertisement in a newsletter or sees your banner on a website, do you think if they click on it and get no response they will try again in 20 minutes? They won’t. Potential customer, down the drain.

Even something as simple as your current host not having the features you need to run a good quality shopping cart will make you lose customers. As you can see, choosing Cpwebhosting for your web host is very important.

But how do you I know that Cpwebhosting is my web host? There are thousands of other sites out there. Here are a few easy reasons you need to think about that make us your only choice.

1) First, sit down and think about your needs before looking for a host. There is no point choosing Cpwebhosting, only to find out that they don’t support any of the features you need, or that you are paying for things that you will never use. Ask your web designer what features are required for your site to work.

One of the features necessary for e-commerce (that is often not
included) is SSL (Secure Sockets Layer), which is used so you can safely accept credit cards on your site. Other features that are required are things such as CGI (Common Gateway Interface) which allow you to run programs such as shopping carts on your site, well Cpwebhosting does supply them.

2) Email us if you are interested in before signing up. Send our support department a few emails, at different times, just to check how quickly we respond. With our 24/7 support, you can call us as well and make sure that you can talk to a human if you need to. Sometimes that is the quickest way to resolve a problem. Our number is toll free,  866-628-7829  call us now if you need to.

Take this oppotunity to ask us about the features we offer. If there is a feature you want that we don’t have listed, ask us if we can add it. Don’t forget to measure our response time as it will be very quick!

3) Decide wether you need a Virtual or Dedicated server. Basically, if your site is very busy millions on hits a month – then you need a dedicated server. Head over to http://www.cpwebhosting.com/ for more infomation about choosing between Virtual & Dedicated servers.

We do offer semi-dedicated options, where you share the server with 4 or so other people. This generally isn’t a good option, and if you need that sort of speed, look into getting our dedicated server.

4)If you want ask us for some sites that are currently hosted on our servers then – make sure the site loads fast, email the owners of the site & ask them if they are happy with the service they are getting.

5) Try to avoid NT, Mac and Cobalt servers. Web servers can come in many types, from Unix based, to NT, Cobalt, Sun Solaris and even Macintosh. For 95% of people, a Unix based server is the best option. Many people get scared when they read the word “Unix”; it sounds so hard to use! In actuality however, it is easier to use a Web sever than the other options. Feel free to contact us if you need some help deciding what type of server you need. http://www.cpwebhosting.net

6) All beginners, and even some of the advanced web developers out there, will benefit from having an easy to use Control Panel to handle things on their site, such as email addresses. Cpwebhosting has all of this to make your hosting as fun as possible.

Generating Website Traffic with Sub-domains

Sub-domains are websites that are located within a directory of your main site and have their own domain name. Because they use the same resources as the main website, they are normally much cheaper than getting another hosting account. Their low cost and flexibility make sub-domains a great device for directing traffic to your site without breaking the bank.

*Sub-domains as Portal Sites* One of the best uses of sub-domains is portal websites. Portal websites are sites that link to your main website and have a similar theme. Basically, they provide another portal, or doorway, for visitors and search engines to get to your main website.

Since creating content for a website takes time, often webmasters simply modify the existing text of the main site and reuse it on the portal site. It is important that the content is not exactly the same and the portals do not just redirect to the main site. Otherwise, search engines may not index them.

*More Portals, More Visitors* Portal websites can be submitted to the search engines just like your main site. If your website is doing alright in the search engines, then imagine having five more websites out there for the spiders to find. Five more listings means that Web surfers have five times as many ways to find your network of websites.

*Search Engines and Links* More and more search engine algorithms take into consideration the number and ranking of sites that link to you. By linking your sub-domains to your main site and to each other, the ranking of all of your sites is improved.

*Banner Exchange Programs* Banner exchange programs allow members to share advertising space on each other’s websites. They are a great way to generate traffic to your website, but you may not want to clutter your main site with ads. Portal websites provide a good place to test different programs and direct the resulting traffic to your main site.

*Alternative Markets* Search engine spiders will pick up on content variations among your websites. Subtle differences could place a site in a category that you had not thought of and open up an entirely new base of visitors and/or customers.

*Product and Service Specialization* Your main website may have dozens of different products and services. This is great for your business, but generality can hurt your ranking in the search engines. Using sub-domains to create sites that specialize in one product or service increases your keyword density and improves your ranking. Plus, many consumers would prefer to work with a specialized business than a one-stop shop. (You can still link to your main site with all of your
products.)

hi, i am submitting my web hosting site to the Open Web Directory.what are some dos and don’ts?

One of the most important steps in any web hosting site’s publicity campaign is the submission to the Open Web Directory
(http://www.dmoz.org) as this directory provides search results of web hosting site for many of the most important search engines and online portals. This directory is not a robot driven spider, but a human edited directory and you must observe a few important points if your submission is to be successful.

1.Make sure that your web hosting site has original content. If you are only publishing a collection of affiliate links or if your site is a clone of other sites that are plentiful on the web, then your submission is likely to be rejected. If you are dealing with affiliate products you can of course add content, such as product reviews or additional information and thus show the editors that your site has something original to offer.

2. Check your site for spelling errors and in general, make sure that your site looks good. Though the editors are looking for original content, they are only human and will be annoyed by errors and by a clumsily built site. It is my experience that professionally designed web sites, with good content, always make it into the directory eventually (more on the time factor later).

3. Be sure to put your contact information on the web site. An e-mail address is not enough. I spoke to one editor and he told me that if he doesn’t see a physical address or telephone number then the entrants in his category & are toast. Especially if you are selling something, you need to build credibility with your customers, and in this case, with the Open Directory editors, by giving proper contact information.

4. Choose the right category for your submission. When you submit a URL to a robotic search engine there is not much to think about, but whenever you submit to a directory an important part of that submission is choosing a proper category. Go online and see where sites similar to yours have been placed in the directory. When you find the category that you think is best, then press the add URL link. In some categories the editors put a note mentioning the restrictions for that category. Please heed these notes carefully and don’t submit to this category if your site doesn’t meet the criteria.

5. Record the date and category of your submission. It is good to keep a record of when you submitted and to what category you submitted your site. If your category has an editor make a note of who the editor is. This information will be useful if you need to make an inquiry about the status of your submission. How long does it take to get listed? I have had one site listed within two weeks of submission and I have also waited eight months for other sites

6. Don’t spam the Directory! Submit your site one time and be patient. Generally you are only allowed to submit to one category, though if your site is huge and has many subdivisions, you may be able to submit sections of the site to different categories. It takes time for entries to be processed, especially in categories where there are many submissions. If you hastily resubmit your site, then it will end up on the bottom of the list of sites to be reviewed, as they are stored according to date.

7. Contact the Directory through proper channels if you have questions about your submission If the category where you submitted has an editor, it will be indicated at the bottom of the page, and you can send him or her a message. Another excellent way to make contact with the editors is through their online forum locate at http://resource-zone.com/ubbthreads.php
.There you can ask about the status of your submission, but you must give them the date and category to which you submitted your site. You can ask questions about the procedures etc, but one more thing, don’t argue with the editors. Find out how the editors of the directory work and do your best to meet their conditions and you will be successful.

hi, what is the last step in the process of finding the right host?

The last step is to make sure they offer some sort of an uptime guarantee. Some companies offer a 99% uptime guarantee, and if your site is not up that much, you get the month free. While this does not bring you back the potential clients that you have lost, it does encourage hosts to have their servers up as much as possible.

If there is one thing I want you to understand from this article, it is this: “You get what you pay for with web hosting.” I have had hundreds of emails from people that went cheap and their site was a disaster because of it. Don’t choose a $5 a month host, and expect to recieve quality services. You should aim to spend at least $30 a month for a basic package, and at least $300 a month for a dedicated server.

Be careful not to be ripped off though. While I am telling you not to spend too little, you have to be careful not to spend too much. If you are interested in a host and you feel they might be trying to charge you a little too much, feel free to contact me and I’ll check them out for you.

hi, i want to know that why it is necessary to keep an eye on my webhost.

Ok so you spent hundreds of hours and possibly even thousands to build your web presence, one of the most important decisions you’ll make next is where to host your website.

Choosing a Platform is easy Unix tends to be more reliable than NT, but it is even more true that any server when overloaded with sometimes 350+ web sites, like most web hosting companies do, will not be as stable as you need it to be. Don’t expect your site to incur 100% availability if you are on a shared virtual server. There are too many things that can go wrong when 350 different sites are competing for the same resources. If your web host doesn’t publish how many sites they put on a single server, find out from them, they shouldn’t have anything to hide. By the way, 255 sites is the maximum that Windows NT will allow per server, and most web hosts take full advantage of that for their lower end solutions.

Web sites running on NT/Windows 2000: *Rapid application development with scripting languages such as ASP or Cold Fusion. *Typically is easier to administer in a shared hosting environment. *If need ODBC to support database driven a site. *They say FrontPage tends to work better on NT But I have never had trouble with it on UNIX/LINUX systems.

Web sites running UNIX/LINUX: *Scripting languages such as PERL, PHP or any CGI applications. *If you only need email or a static site, use Unix/Linux, it’s cheaper. *Tends to be more reliable then NT in a shared hosting environment.

Web site running on a dedicated server: *If Uptime, user experience, branding, and site performance are a main concern. *If your new to hosting, check out the our Plans at Cpwebhosting.net.

Narrowing the Selection: Price – Its true here like most things, you get what you pay for. Don’t expect enterprise class uptime for 20 bucks a month, even if they guarantee it. Options – Don’t skimp on your options, if you need extra email address, get them. Some options are a “must have” depending on your websites functionality. Site traffic reporting tools are extremely useful also. Support – Most of the top web-hosting providers have 24/7 support. Make certain that your host has a toll free number for support. Waiting for someone to email you back when your site is down and you’re losing business is no fun. Well everything that was just stated is what we offer at Cpwebhosting.net.

Monitor Your Site: Your newly created web presence needs to be up and running 24/7 in order to be effective. Most top-notch web hosts offer money back guarantees if your site is up for less than 99% of the time.

That is considerable when: An avg. uptime of 99.9% is 10 minutes of downtime per week. An avg. uptime of 99% is 1 ½ hours of downtime per week. An avg. uptime of 98% is 3 ¼ hours of downtime per week. An avg. uptime of 95% is 8 ½ hours of downtime per week.

This is downtime where your business has effectively closed its doors to potential customers. It is recommended you take advantage of web-based site monitoring services. This will allow for accountability between you and your provider. The fact is, you can’t be there checking to make sure your site’s up at 3am everyday, but a good web site monitoring service will email or even page you when your sites down at anytime with diagnostic data to help pinpoint the problem. In the end, these services can potentially save you money or even justify you switching providers completely. So we just don’t want that to happen and check out this link at http://www.serverpatrol.com to help keep us on the ball.

hi, what are the webhosting company ethics?

hi, what are the three mistakes that should be avoided while choosing a webhost?

here are a few mistakes to avoid while choosing your host. I’d like to share these with you below, and explain why it’s important to avoid these mistakes at all costs – especially if you wish to start an online business.

3 Mistakes to Avoid

1. Free Web Space – Remember seeing all those ads that mention “free web space”? Please avoid participating in these services. In most cases, the reason it’s free is because the company will place advertisements for other websites all over your web page. This defeats the entire purpose of having “your own” web business.

Why should you have to give your potential customers away? Shouldn’t you be able to keep the visitors that you have paid to receive through your own ad campaigns?

With “free web space” sites, you’ll give away more business than it would cost you to get your own domain and hosting service. It’s not worth it.

2. Limited hosting – Avoid hosting packages that will not allow you to add order forms, statistics, or multiple email accounts to your website. These are necessary tools for any webmaster who desires to open an online business.

It’s best to choose a hosting service that offers many options such as:

— Multiple POP Email Accounts — Dedicated Hosting — Secure Servers — Web Usage Statistics — Web Space Allocation (you can get how much web space you’ll need) — URL Redirection — Autoresponders

These are just a few “necessary” services to look for when choosing a web host for your new website.

3. Low Cost Hosting – Watch out for very low cost hosting packages (i.e. $2.50 per month). They usually require something in return, which can take away profits from your online business.

I must admit that it does sound appealing to sign up for free or very low cost hosting, but count the costs before signing up…

– Each time an advertisement banner is placed on your website, it’s designed to get your visitor to click out of your website and go some place else. Most free or low cost web hosting services place these banners at the very top of your web page – giving the visitor an opportunity to click out of your site before getting to the first words of your presentation.

– One complaint that comes to mind about a free hosting service was that the company’s server became overcrowded and the customer could not get their website to come up 50% of the time. When this happens, your business is closed – and you have no control over this situation.

One final point about hosting before closing. If you get your own domain name, and your own hosting, your visitors will have more confidence in your site, and will be more willing to buy your products or services.

Search for a web host that offers fabulous service, affordable rates, and everything you’ll need for your online business. You’ll be glad you did!

hi, how the cpwebhosting could be the silent partner of my E-Business?

Already, e-commerce revenues are in the billions, and experiencing exponential growth. Any business that wishes to be competitive in this new marketplace–including your business–cannot ignore the power of e-commerce.
Many of you have taken that first step in putting your business
online: You have done your research, identified your brand, and chosen and registered a domain name that speaks to your brand. That was the easy part. If you haven’t yet registered your domain name, don’t fret! You can easily do it at:
http://www.cpwebhosting.net and Click on Domain to get started.
After domain registration, what follows next may be one of the most important decisions you make for your e-business…finding the right hosting company. This is as important to the quality of your business as finding the right partner, and many people–even experienced webmasters– find the experience daunting. I would like to share my hosting experience with you-perhaps it will make your decision-making process a little easier.
RELIABILITY
Reliability. Hosting isn’t glamorous, but as you know, it is the backbone of your web-based business. That is why I refer to it as the “silent partner.” A good hosting company is dependable, with a steady “up-time” track record. After all, what good is a web site if it’s down? A good hosting company should operate like the electric company–every day you wake up, it’s there, working. However, even the most reliable companies need to periodically take the system down for maintenance. Your hosting company should inform its customers in advance, and perform that maintenance at off-peak hours–so as not to unduly burden your web business.
The next things to look for I call the “Four S’s:” Service, Software, Support, and Space.
SERVICE
An extremely important (and often overlooked) factor is Service. Unfortunately, many hosting companies end their relationship with you the moment the server sale is made. This leaves unanswered the crucial question, “Okay, I’ve got a server–now what?” This is critical when you consider that some companies are so controlling that web masters are discouraged from customizing and/or managing sites for their clients! Other hosting companies give you space on a server, but nothing more–you have to configure the server and set up all the back-end functionality manually!
As you have probably done this before, I don’t need to tell you what a time-consuming and laborious task this is. My best service experience has been with Cpwebhosting.net. So much so that I’ve spent the last 2 years with them! If you have questions, they are on-call 24/7 to answer them–they even have discussion boards where fellow customers can offer advice and helpful tips. Good service means providing a community of resources throughout the life of your e-business.
SOFTWARE
In addition to Service, the ideal hosting solution also provides easy-to-use web management tools. This is the third “S:” Software. Although many companies offer some of these features, my choice for the hosting company with the best overall tool suite is Cpwebhosting.net. They offer tools that are easy enough for a novice to quickly understand, and customizable enough for a web master to optimize. In my experience, one of the incredibly useful tools is the Cpwebhosting.net Email Manager.
The email manager has saved me a lot of time from manual configuration. You can quickly and easily set up email accounts, set up and remove POP/3s, create auto-responders, create aliases, and more. Cpwebhosting.net has 24 tools in all–certainly more than I can cover in this article! One of the best features of the Cpwebhosting.net hosting software suite is that it is totally web-based. This allows for instant accessibility, no matter where you are–certainly helpful if you travel frequently or have customers covering a wide geographical area.
SUPPORT
Even for experienced web developers, a primary consideration is Support. Questions always arise as you develop sites and add features and/or functionality. The ideal hosting company will be there to assist you along the way, as well as talk you through any rough spots. Since support issues are rarely constrained to regular business hours, make sure that your chosen hosting company offers support 24/7 (just in case), and offers a variety of means to contact support, such as telephone 800 number, email, and web-based access.
SPACE
Finally, “Space,” refers to how much server room you will need to store/manage your digital data. How much space you need can be determined by how much content you will post, how much data you will store, and how much traffic you are expecting. Ideally, you should find a company like Cpwebhosting.net that offers both shared and dedicated servers–that way, you can start small, and expand as your online business grows. Most people 99.9% don’t need a dedicated server but for those that can afford one we have them.
Shared servers are simply servers that are shared with other businesses. Most small to medium-sized businesses prefer shared hosting because it is cost-effective and can be scaled to the amount of space that your business needs. Cpwebhosting.net offers shared “Virtual” servers that range from the beginner, at 550 MB of space, all the way up to the Premium, which has 1250MB of disk space. Of course, if you require more space, a dedicated server option is likely best for you. Cpwebhosting.net offers different dedicated servers that range in size from 40 gigs (Pro) to the top Pre, which has 2/40 gigs of space.
I hope my experiences will aid you in your hosting selection

process. You need to look at reliability, service, software, support, and space. That way, you can wisely choose the “silent partner,” who will deliver steady uptime, sophisticated time-saving tools, and supreme customer support. After much personal research, and after consulting my good friend, Richard Rossy, I chose Cpwebhosting.net. From getting my domain name to finding the right hosting package for my needs, my silent partner-Cpwebhosting.net-made getting my business online impossibly easy.

hi, i want to know that can i really make it online on the internet?

For some six years now I have been designing and marketing websites, setting up cgi, php and just about any newsletters and articles that you can think of or so it seems. I started out in it as a part time business on the Internet , and soon realised that I could make a career out of hosting. It has been somewhat ofa roller-coaster ride you can say so far with it’s fair share of ups and downs on the Internet. I did think for awhile, is it ever going to work, will I ever have a good web hosting business. Back then when I first started out, I soon learn’t the hard way that all that was just a myth and Internet Webhosting was hard. I was even scammed more than twice on the net , falling to some “get rich” scheme which was full of nothing but hype. You can say we all have seen this on the net

Soon after I realise what the internet was about with all those scams and schemes. But that is not truly the hard part. The part of it where you have to work hard to achieve what you want, the part of it where you have to go months or years without success before you finally find a good Website hosting company. The internet is not much different from the offline world, only that it is cheaper to go into an Internet Webhosting business and were you are open 24/7. Well at least I try very hard to stay open 24/7 and when I can afford to get someone I will.

But one has to work just as hard and I have received my fair share of success for Webhosting. It wasn’t easy to reach where I am right now, I had to deal with rejection , setbacks , lack of capital and a lot of other obstacles most of which were unforeseen. But without those obstacles in my way I wouldn’t be were I am right now.

For those who are just starting their Internet business , you have to be willing to make mistakes and suffer setbacks and rejections if you are going to stand a chance of success with web hosting. I know as I have been there and it is very hard work. Being and having persistence will get you a long way in this business. Don’t take my word for it, get a plan from us and try it out for 30 days and if you don’t like it I give you your money back and that is a fact.

hi, i want to know that how i could be able to access my website?

You will be able to access your Web site right after you register your account.
