How to Change Web Hosting Service ProvidersIn Feburary 2016 29,

In Feburary 2016 29,
Do your homework when deciding which host to move your website to. Moving your site to a new host is a lot of work so you don't want to have to do it too often. Choose a new web host that offers room for expansion if your business grows.
Give yourself plenty of time to make the change over to the new host. Even though it means one month of double expenses, it is a good idea to start services with your new host one month before discontinuing services with your old host. This will give you 30 days to work out any problems at the new site.
Pack up your business at your current hosting site by making copies of all of your web pages and files on CD. Arrange to have services you were using and don't need any more to be disconnected at the end of the month.
Notify your domain name registrar of your move. This is the company that you registered your ecommerce site name with. They need to know the domain name and IP address for both your old web host and your new one.
Set up your site at your new web host by uploading all of the pages and files you packed onto CD. Start any new services that you need in your new home.
Notify your customers of your new email address if it changed when you moved to the new hosting site. Set up mail forwarding with your new web host to ensure that any mail sent to your old email address will be forwarded.

How to Set Up FormMail in cPanelIn Feburary 2016 24,

In Feburary 2016 24,
Download the latest version of FormMail from Matt’s Script Archive at scriptarchive.org. The file you will be downloading is “formmail.pl.”
Upload formmail.pl to the “cgi-bin” on your Web server. Log into cPanel with your user name and password and go to the “File Manager.” Within the file manager, navigate to “public_html” and then choose “cgi-bin” and upload the FormMail file.
Change the file permissions of formmail.pl to make it a file that is writable by the system. From the file manager, check the box next to FormMail and click the button to edit the file permissions. Change the permissions to a CHMOD setting of 755. This code allows the website to both read and write data associated with FormMail.
Create an HTML code snippet to use on your website. Navigate out of the File Manager and return to the main cPanel dashboard. Click the “Fantastico” icon and use the Fantastico form generator to automatically generate the HTML code for your form. Be sure to input the email address to which form submissions should be delivered, and what form elements you wish to include, such as sender name, sender email and message.
Edit the form to make it compatible with FormMail. Copy and paste the Fantastico-generated code into a text editor, such as Windows Notepad. Edit the form action to point to the location of FormMail, and that the method is “post.” The code should resemble:
form action=“/cgi-bin/formmail.pl” method=“post”
Use the form. Copy and paste the revised form code into the contact page of your website. Navigate to the page in your Web browser and submit a test form to make sure the delivery works properly. Should the form fail, use Fantastico to check the code for errors.

How to Start a Web Design BusinessIn Feburary 2016 18,

In Feburary 2016 18,
Set up your own website. This should be your first step, long before you start looking for clients. Go all out with design and make sure the website looks flawless. Then direct potential clients there to see what you can do.
Learn what's involved in designing a successful website. This entails researching what's out there, seeing what the big companies are doing and comparing different sites in quality and easiness of use. Aside from design and layout, you will also need to manage information change, maintenance and navigability of the site.
Consider expanding to offer additional services such as search engine submission and optimization, Internet marketing and traffic promotion. Most clients don't have the knowledge or the time to do this themselves and will be happy to pay extra for the service.
Build a portfolio. While you can start by designing the website of a friend or family member, it makes more sense to offer your services to a non-profit organization, such as a church or local clinic. Not only will you be doing a good deed, but the reference will certainly look more impressive in your resume.
Partner with other freelancers. Copywriters can create the text for the websites, while search engine specialists can advice clients how to make the best of their business. Working as a group unit also means that you will land jobs by indirect association and partnerships.

How to Protect a Website From MalwareIn Feburary 2016 15,

In Feburary 2016 15,
Change the main website password (also known as the web hosting plan password) once a month. Use a combination of numbers, letters and symbols to form a secure password that is hard to guess or crack through hacking programs. For example, the password 'N3409Fn29aa' is harder to guess than 'sunshine29,'
Log in to each PHP script installed and in use (guestbook, blog, mailing list) and change their administrator passwords. Form difficult administrator password for each script that you're using on the website.
Update all scripts that are in use and are planned to be parts of the website in the future. Upgrade to latest available and stable versions by downloading them from the developers' websites. Update any security patches available through the developer. Outdated PHP scripts have insecure coding and are often hacked and injected with malware code.
Remove any scripts that are outdated and no longer in use. Delete the files off the web server or follow uninstall directions if available through your website's control panel.
Disable global directives and variables (which can be used to gain access to administrator panels and inject malware code) from your web hosting account. Alter the '.htaccess' file to secure the website and protect it from this common malice.
Disable 'php_globals'
Log in to your website's root directory using an FTP program. Select 'Show hidden files' from the FTP display options.
Locate a folder called 'public_html' and open it.
Download '.htaccess' from your website to your desktop.
Right-click on the downloaded '.htaccess' file. Select 'Open With - Notepad.'
Type on the first line of the .htaccess file the following code:php_flag register_globals offSave the file and upload back to 'public_html.'

The Best Website Hosts for Small BusinessIn Feburary 2016 13,

In Feburary 2016 13,
Your web host should be able to provide you with a clear pricing sheet for a complete hosting solution. Web hosting can be complex and many factors contribute to the type of hosting package you need. Before signing up for a hosting plan, it should be absolutely clear what your monthly price will be and what items may impact your pricing as your web site business grows. For example, some hosting companies limit how much bandwidth or data transfer you can use and charge very high overage fees for breaking those limits. Any change in pricing should be clearly laid out before you sign up.
Dedicated Support
Web hosting is a technical process that requires professional and knowledgeable support from your web hosting company. You should have access to support via a toll-free phone number as well as an easy-to-use online ticket system. Responses to your inquiries should happen promptly. Additionally, the best web hosting companies typically have live technical support via the toll-free number, available 24 hours a day. The hosting company should provide reliable service, and in the case that the server goes down, you need to know your web host will be able to address the problem as soon as possible.
Wide Array of Features
Small business web sites may need very little in terms of advanced features. However, your web host should be able to provide you access to more advanced features on demand as your site grows. For instance, you should have access to a database, secure server, control panel and web statistics to monitor your traffic should you need these items. In many cases, these items are already included in your hosting plan, or sometimes there may be additional fees to add these to your plan. It is important, though, to make sure your company has a wide array of features available to avoid having to transfer to a new host should you require any advanced features.
Go Direct
The best web hosting companies will own and operate their own data centers and servers. Sometimes, web hosting companies pose as being and independent company but are really just reselling another web hosting company’s services. This can cause delays when you are waiting for service items to be addressed. Why report a problem to a middle man when you could just report the problem to the source directly? Make sure that your hosting company is in control of their own servers and data centers; this control is crucial when it comes to addressing technical support inquiries and resolving problems.

How to Host a Business MeetingIn Feburary 2016 04,

In Feburary 2016 04,
The meeting will move faster and be more focused if you have a reason to hold it. Even if it's a regular weekly meeting, it will be more productive if you have a specific goal. Draw up an agenda touching on the topics you want to cover. Stick to the agenda: If someone brings up an unrelated topic, tell them to talk about it with you after the meeting is over.
Invite Selectively
Don't invite people who don't need to be there. If all you need from someone is an update on her latest project, you can get that in an email. Keeping the meeting to a reasonable size keeps things more orderly and focused. It also frees up more people to do productive work.
Prep Your Attendees
Send out your agenda before the meeting, so everyone knows what to expect. If you call the meeting to deal with a recent development -- a change in the law, a project delay -- include the background information with the agenda. That way everyone will be up to speed and you have more time in the meeting to address the development.
Find the Right Space
Find a room that's large enough that everyone who attends can seat themselves comfortably. Squeezing people in or hunting for chairs is distracting, uncomfortable and makes you look unprepared. Confirm the room has any equipment you need and that it's in working order. This is particularly important if the meeting includes a slide show presentation or if someone's going to attend by phone or videoconference.
Steer the Meeting
Agendas aren't magic. Lots of meetings start with a goal, then the participants veer off onto tangents. If you're hosting, it's up to you to steer the ship back on course. If your guests include customers or upper management, you'll have to do this with a delicate touch, but it needs doing. End the meeting at the scheduled time.
Help People Relax
You don't want to run such a tight meeting everyone feels like they're in boot camp. Arrange for a supply of snacks and non-alcoholic drinks. Allow some time at the beginning for small talk, as people naturally enjoy catching up with each other. Just don't let it run on to the point it delays the business at hand.

How to Create a PasswordIn Feburary 2016 04,

In Feburary 2016 04,
Join a website that offers this service. Some are less secure and may not offer the exact protection you need. Others are more secure and may require a fee.
That website you joined will give you an HTML code to enter into your website. This may vary based on the program.
Look for a line in the script that reads 'form.id.value=='userID.'' Change 'userID' to whatever username you want.
Now look for a line in the script that reads 'form.pass.value=='password.'' Change 'password' to the one you want.
Now look for a line that reads 'location='page2.html.'' This is the URL of the page that the person will be directed to once they enter the correct password. You may have to edit the path accordingly. If you're not sure, just put the complete URL of the page here.
The next step is optional. Look for a line that reads 'alert('Invalid Password').' You can change 'Invalid Password' to whatever message you want. For example, you can make it say, 'The password you entered is incorrect. Please try again.'
You can also do the same to the user Invalid ID section. Look for the line 'alert('Invalid UserID').' Change 'Invalid UserID' to whatever message you want to display when the username is incorrect.
That's it. You're finished!
