I have Yahoo Plus! (Geocities web hosting) and am trying to use FrontPage2000 to publish my web site. I have tried all the tips in the troubleshooting section (regenerating extensions, deleting all existing files, etc…), but I am still stuck in that blasted sign-in loop. It asks me to sign-in, I sign-in, it asks me to sign-in again, etc…

Eben N asked:


I intend to start my own 5 page website. One of the webpages will have multiple links to my business PAYPAL account. I’ll use another page for downloaded PDF and Audio files for visitors to the site - at first, not that many files, but I’ll add to these every few months. The other three pages will contain mostly text that won’t be changed very often.

1] What should I look for in terms of Bandwidth or allotted monthly web traffic from a web host (in other words, how much Bandwidth)?

2] What should I look for in terms of Disk (storage) space from a web host (in other words, how much disk space)?

Web Hosting asked:


Similar to all other technologies there is also no lack of difficulties and troubles in the field of dedicated web hosting. Although, there are certain things which one can adopt to prepare himself/herself for any server downtime or any sort of problems that might arise. Secret however lie in the fact that the user must be aware.

The points in the form of timesaving tips will definitely help the user to choose a dedicated web hosting along with saving an ample of time. These points or suggestions are given below:

Suggestions:

1. Managed Dedicated Server

In case, someone possess his/her own dedicated server there is need for someone else to manage it. Hence, one is having 2 possible routes to choose. One can either give priority to a managed server or comprise a hosting company that handles all form of details, maintenance, updating etc. Otherwise, one can call for an administrator to tackle this maintenance for him/her. The final option is that the user can manage it by himself/herself, i.e., if the user is skilled in such sort of things. If one talks about the core side, then hiring an administrator will cost the user additional bucks as well. Despite, if the user has a managed dedicated server installed he/she should know beforehand who has taken the role of maintenance and further details to keep everything running smoothly and efficiently with as little downtime as feasible.

2. Identify the Details

It is required by every user that he/she should be aware about all the details regarding his/her dedicated server along with his/her web host. If the user is aware about all the details he/she can easily understand what to do in which situation. If the user is not aware about the details when he/she indulges himself/herself in a contract with a devoted web host then it is similar as to inviting the trouble by own. To save oneself from such sort of things the user should make sure that he/she knows everything about the equipment, and the things like who is liable for what, strategy if any problems arise.

3. Support

The third and major key element that the user should be aware of is to save the time when problems arise i.e. the type of support he/she has from his/her web host. The host should be like the one who provides supreme support i.e., 24 hours per day, 7 days per week and 365 days per year. If the web host is not offering this then the user should migrate towards an alternative option because of the reason that some problems seem to arise after hours and not weekends or holidays.

At the end, as the user has become familiar to these timesaving tips and he/she will be in a better position to select a dedicated web host who matches his/her businesses needs. Moreover, as one is already aware of everything in advance he/she will never have any problems dealing with situations that occur due to his/her web host because of the reason that the user is now ready for every sort of challenge.

Web Hosting asked:


One usually thinks that he/she will receive same services with the certain range of price, which type of host it doesn’t matter. This is not a fact. Basically, one will not find differences in the web hosting but if one will carefully analyze there will be a vast difference between each one of them. Some of which are not adequate to user’s business. There are several hosts charging $10 a month for a particular package which one can get at the rate of $5a month with other hosting provider.

Mentioned below are 3 of the steps following which one can end up on an ideal hosting selection.

1. Deciding one’s Price range:

Price is the top most concern. One can spend anything to meet his/her requirements ranging from a few dollars a month to a few hundred. There is no one but the user who knows about his/her requirement and about his/her budget. One should consider it. Here one should find providers offering shared and dedicated hosting solutions. It is quite crucial to know the actual disparity among the two. Normally, it is shared web hosting is more inexpensive as compare to dedicated hosting. In the case of shared hosting their will be several web sites on the same server making it quite affordable for each individual.

Due to this reason only a large amount of individuals and businesses began with shared hosting and its reliability and consistency is increasing day by day due to which several businesses have raised on the basis of price and reliability. One can get web hosting prices generally in the range of $5 to $30 a month. If one will talks about Dedicated hosting then the user will have all the right to exploit entire resources. User will command the web server according to the available resources. When it comes to this type of hosting it will differ in both the price and services. It can be from $99 a month to a huge amount of $300-$400 a month. Certainly, here one will enjoy a reliable service and command over content and customization area.

2. Deciding one’s Needs:

What is the requirement of the user? However, one cannot deny the fact that web hosting has become quite affordable and competitive over the last few years but one should first search out the answers of few of the basic questions. Is user’s requirement is the 100% uptime i.e. 24/7/365 or just the modest uptime i.e. 99.9% which one can find at a cheap price as per the standardization of industry in comparison to a SLA (Service Level Agreement). What is user are Criteria regarding support? Does the requirement is 24/7/365 email support or in addition to it phone support? Loss of potential data is a topic which is quite crucial but generally overlooked by the user. Does user should ensure that his/her web host offers back up / restore services or rather an option to ad it or which one can buy on additional cost. Several user’s take it easy as it is automatic but one should mind it that without proper inquiry and involvement in the package it is not going to be accomplish. Requirement of quantity of email accounts and databases can be the other criteria. If the user possesses employees then the probability is that they would like individual email accounts for the use in interoffice and external communication. While user is opting for a strategy to run an e-commerce shopping cart or rather a community forum of any sort then requirement of one or more databases is must.

Normally, email accounts are standard but several hosts demands additional amount for databases and/or limit as per their business structure. Next, important aspect is the amount of disk space and data transfer required by the user? Now a day’s disk space and data transfer are available quite cheap. It is the Performance, features, reliability, and customer service for which the user is paying. For instance, if in the future user feels requirement of graphics resulting in large data base then it is not bad to have much disk space in advance because user may not feel its importance in beginning but it can be fruitful with respect to future strategy.

3. Accomplishing one’s Homework:

After considering above steps one should go for the research mode. The step deals with the outlook of providers. User should start his/her research from host’s own web site. The web site of several companies has a section called “about us” through which one can inquire about their background/history and a synopsis regarding their products, services, infrastructure etc. one should also go through their terms and policies regarding privacy and service. No doubt, one should be aware of the depth of the lake in which he/she is diving into. This is because several problems may arise later on if the user do not have the in depth knowledge of his/her concern host. By going through these policies one may have insight knowledge on restrictions between providers and which direction one should proceed by avoiding any trouble as per changing scenario. There are several companies delivering a customer testimonial and FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) page in addition to it. User can consider Testimonials as a source of providing useful information about kinds of web sites being hosted and the way the company is delivering services to its present customers. If FAQ page delivered by the company is accurate then one can solve majority of problems in a very simple manner, whether the problem is related to sales or technical doesn’t matter. Certainly, one of the crucial ways to conclude research on the concern host is to charge them with questions/need which may not be apparently answered.

Thus at the end we can say that there are literally hundreds of specific needs that any one company or individual requires while searching for web hosting services. The problems and solutions are so much that even a book can be written on it. Thus the above given is a fundamental foundation of steps that will help user in beginning with good success.
