Web Host Scripting. There’s both a cheap and expensive side to this. Though most newer webmasters will be looking for an automated web builder program, most will eventually have the need for advanced scripting compatibility. Believe it or not, there’s cheap and an expensive way to go about this, and we’re not talking about taking classes. We’re talking about scripting languages. Believe it or not, some languages are cheaper to know than others.
Having a domain is a necessity for any serious webmaster. In fact, many webmasters have been known to register more than one domain per website that they own. This is to protect their brand name. Say you register “www.bicycles.com” (lucky you), and someone else registers “www.bicycles.net”. Most customers will easily mix the two up, and even return customers might mistake one for the other. So as you build your own reputation, you’re essentially building someone else’s as well.
What most professionals do who want to protect against poor business practices like that register as many domains as possible. Some register the basics (“.com”, “.org”, and “.net”) and others even go as far as registering all extensions, plus any common misspellings they can think of. Punch in “googel.com” into your browser, and you’ll see what I’m talking about.
Now obviously when talking about “Hosting on a Budget”, you’re not going to be able to go to that extent. But getting at least at least the 3 basic domains (“.com”, “.org”, and “.net) will ensure that most customers don’t get too confused. Less common extensions like “.info” and “.biz” will stand out to a return customer, and they will likely be able to tell you from those.
Ten years ago, the amount of space that came with your hosting plan had to be paid very close attention to, since most plans didn’t come with much at all. Most webmasters were lucky to get as much as 50 megabytes of space, which by today’s standards wouldn’t have done much at all. But since then, the price of memory storage devices has gone down dramatically. In turn, web hosting companies started to provide access to larger disk space even with their most basic plans. But something else also happened.
Every day, millions of people from around the world access the Internet. To access a website, you need to type its URL in the address bar. Many people are not familiar with the process that take place in the system when they hit the enter key. Due to the modern technology, it takes only a short time for the webpage to display when you hit the enter key.
Security is one the most important things to think about when doing any kind of online activities. Nowadays, bad things like hacking, viruses, and malware are common things, so that it is an important thing to learn some fundamental security measures to make sure that your hosting account is safe and secure. We are going to talk about some proactive ways that you can do to protect your data in this article.
