Useful Tips When Applying For A Web Host Provider


Once you have considered the design for your website and it is ready to be hosted, there are some matters to be considered when choosing the adequate web host:

I – Accessibility of the site?

Once you have applied for a web host provider you should take several aspects into account such as the time it takes to load or the period of time it is up.These aspects are very important because if there are problems related to them, this can create extreme annoyance and renouncement of the possible visitors.

The same possible visitors can also have problems in finding your web page, as search engines do not show those who are always down or have difficulties in loading.

The best method to acknowledge if a server is usually up would be to take a look over the reviews written by other persons who have applied for the server before you.

II – Does the provider offer SSL??

In the case of a hobby web siter or, in other words, if you will not be making any transactions on that particular website, the SSL protection is not necessary.In the other case, if transactions should be made in the near future it is necessary for you to choose the webhost which includes the SSL protection upfront.

SSL is generally used for encrypting any piece of information such as:credit card codes, names, etc.

Deciding to subscribe to a webhost which does not comprise of SSL protection and choosing afterwards to have it installed, could turn up to be more expensive than having applied for a webhost which provides SSL in the first place.

III – Is server side scripting available from the server?

Despite of the fact that these server side scripting is provided by almost all servers, it is still advisable to check out if they do.Pages changing in real time are given the chance to be created by the webmasters due to the server side scripting.

For instance, in the case of running a business and having all products arranged in a database, the server side scripting will give off the pages by means of the ranges the customers choose to see.

You should not think of using a server which does not provide functionality for a server side scripting.

IV – Customer Support

The support given to customers is of an utmost importance when choosing a web host.Even in the case of an experienced webmaster, I am sure that there are still some questions to be asked when signing up with a website.Some of them have created special forums for frequently asked questions(FAQ-S).

Even tough these aspects are widely known, the attention should be drawn anyway, for there are many persons who pay significant sums after having signed to a web host on the basis of having ignored these conditions.Taken this into account, the collaboration should be nothing but successfully.

The Domain Name Game: The Domain for You


The domain name game is a tricky one, but if you play it right you can make the web-site big-leagues. Think of your domain name as your Internet Identity. Think of it as your web sites passport to fame, to glamour, to popularity, to everything that you, as a webmaster, dream of. Picking the domain is vital.

The domain name game is a hard one to play. Every single day tens of thousands of domain names are snatched up, making it almost impossible to find a dictionary word domain. If you are one of the few lucky ones to own a simple dictionary word domain, you can make thousands selling it. If you are not, you have to be more creative in finding one for your site. You can either choose a longer, less brand-able non-dictionary word domain, a combination domain name with letters, numbers and maybe a dash or two, or you can try one of the new TLD (Top Level Domains) available.

Recently the governing bodies that control Internet TLD’s decided that the current standard .COM, .NET and .ORG domains were no longer able to fill the demand, and approved several new TLD’s, including .INFO and .NAME. In addition to those new TLD’s, we have country codes such as .TV and .CX, and New.Net domains such as .CHAT and .CHURCH.
