How to Set Up a Website ServerIn Feburary 2016 30,

In Feburary 2016 30,
Download a server program. Apache HTTP Server is a reliable, easy-to-use web-server program that can be downloaded for free.
Install the program. When prompted, enter the name of the domain (website.com) and the server name (www.website.com). Also enter the email address for the site's administrator.
Click \'Next\' and complete the installation using the \'Typical Installation\' setting. Apache will install its files to C:\Program Files\Apache Group.
Change the server directory. If you're using Apache, go to C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\conf and open the file httpd.conf. In the file, find the reference to \'DocumentRoot.\' Change the Document Root file path to point to the folder where the website files to be hosted are located. If the website files are in C:\Webfiles, change the file to say \'DocumentRoot: C:\Webfiles\' and save the file.
Restart Apache.
Open a Web browser and visit http://localhost/ and it should show the index.html page from whatever folder has been assigned as the DocumentRoot. The server is now configured.

The Best Practices for Email Attachment SizeIn Feburary 2016 26,

In Feburary 2016 26,
There are many free email accounts provided by companies with a large Internet presence. These free email accounts include Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail and Gmail. Each free account limits the total attachment size for every email. Hotmail allows a maximum of 10MB to be attached to every email message. Yahoo allows 20MB and Gmail allows 25MB. Attachment sizes should work within each mail system's guidelines. Failure to do so will result in emails not being sent.
Encoding of Attachments
Free email accounts go through a process of encoding. This means that adjustments are made to the files so that other mail systems can read them. The result is adds an additional 33 percent to the original size of the files. Attachment limits provided by free email accounts also include the encoding.Example:
Yahoo Attachment Limit: 20MB
Attachment Size Before Coding on Yahoo: 15MB
Attachment Size After Coding: 20MBIn the above example, Yahoo limits attachments to a total size of 20MB. A file that is 15MB, after coding, is 20MB. In the case of Yahoo accounts, 15MB is the actual attachment limit.
Attachment Limits on Self-Hosting Accounts
Website owners that have accounts with Internet hosting companies also have access to email accounts. These email accounts can be accessed within the cpanel. The cpanel is also known as the control panel and all website additions and adjustments can be made from there.Email accounts through self-hosting companies also have limits on attachments. The size limit varies with each company. Go Daddy has a total attachment limit of 20MB per email, Bluehost has 10MB and Dreamhost has a limit of 40MB.
Understanding Receiving Limits
Even though some mail systems can send larger attachments than others, it isn’t the only factor that limits attachment size. Attachment limits depends on how much the recipient can receive. Example:
Gmail send limit: 25MB
Gmail receive limit: 25MB
Hotmail send limit: 10MB
Hotmail receive limit: 10MBIn the above example, a Gmail account sending to a Hotmail account cannot have an attachment size larger than 10MB. Even though a Gmail account can send 25MB, the email is limited by the recipient’s ability to receive attachments. On many mail systems, the receiving limit corresponds to the sending limit.In the above example, a Gmail account could send 25MB in some situations. This depends on the recipient also having a Gmail account or being able to receive 25MB.
Splitting Larger Files
Some files have sizes that exceed what is allowed by a mail system. One way to get around this is by using a program that will split the file (see Resources). The program takes a large file and splits it into several, smaller sizes. This allows a person to send a large file in smaller portions and to attach it on several emails. The person receiving the files would then re-merge the split files. Before the recipient receives a split file, they need to be informed before hand. If the recipient doesn't have the same file splitting software, they won't be able merge the files back together. Alternatively, the sender can use a compression or zipping program to shrink the file size and send it as an attachment. The recipient would then need to expand the attachment or zipped file.

How to Connect to WordPress Using FilezillaIn Feburary 2016 19,

In Feburary 2016 19,
Open FileZilla on your computer.
Type your Web host's hostname in the 'Host' box. This often resembles your actual Web address. For example, if your blog is at myblog.com, your FTP host may be 'myblog.com' or 'ftp.myblog.com.'
Type your Web hosting username and password in their respective boxes. Usually, but not always, these credentials are the same ones you use to log into a Web-based control panel for your website. Once you connect, the files on your Web server appear to the right.
Navigate to your home folder, which may be called 'www,' 'home' or 'public_html.'
Navigate to the folder called 'wp-content' inside the directory where you installed WordPress.
Navigate to the folder called 'plugins' to upload a new plugin. Navigate to the 'uploads' folder and, if relevant, the correct year and month to upload content such as images or PDF files.
Click and drag any file you want to upload from the left side of the screen, where it is on your computer, into the appropriate folder on the right side of the screen, which is your Web server. The files will copy to your WordPress installation, but the originals remain on your computer's hard drive.

How to Edit Your WebsiteIn Feburary 2016 16,

In Feburary 2016 16,
If your website is content driven, it may be based in a CMS such as WordPress or Joomla. If you are unsure of this, ask the person who designed your website. To initiate changes to content on a CMS-based website, you log in to your site's administrative panel. The administrative panel offers buttons for various types of content management. After you log in, you can add, delete or edit posts and articles on your site. You can also use a CMS to change some of the other parameters of your site. For example, if your site uses WordPress, you can install a different theme to change the layout of the site, and you can install plugins to change some aspects of your site's functionality.
Changing the Content and Functionality of Your Website
If you need to edit the structure or content of your website and your site does not use a CMS, you must edit the actual files on your site. Use caution if you are implementing HTML, PHP or JavaScript for the first time. If you are not confident in your Web-development skills, the changes you make directly to code could impair the functionality of your website. In such a case, a WYSIWYG editor can be useful. WYSIWYG editors display the changes to your website as you make them, and you drag elements around rather than alter the page code in a text editor.
Changing the Visual Style of Your Website
Most of the visual flair of your website is contained in one or more Cascading Style Sheets files. These files tell the HTML of your site where to position certain elements, how to color the background and what font to use. By editing the CSS files, you change the stylistic aspects of a page. If you rename a CSS file, you must make sure that the applicable HTML files link to the renamed version of the file. This link is in the HTML document's
section. With a WYSIWYG editor, you can confidently make these changes if you are not comfortable making them to your site's code.
Uploading Files to Your Website
After you make changes to your site's code, upload the files to your hosting server for the changes to take effect. If the changes are minor, you may want to download a copy of the file onto your local computer, edit that and then return it to the server. For example, if you want to change one line in your website's index.html file, download it from the server first to make sure that you are modifying the most current version of the file. After you make the changes, upload the file to the server, making sure to overwrite the old one. You accomplish these transfers using a File Transfer Protocol client. An FTP client connects your computer to a remote server for the exchange of files.

How to Create a Zip Download LinkIn Feburary 2016 16,

In Feburary 2016 16,
Right-click on any blank space on your computer desktop.
Choose 'New' then 'Compressed (Zipped) Folder.' A new folder appears.
Right click on the folder name and choose 'Rename.' Type a unique filename for your ZIP file. A brief name without spaces is best for a file that others will download.
Drag and drop the files or directories of files you want to include in your ZIP file directly onto the ZIP file icon. The files will only copy into this location; they will not disappear from their original locations.
Upload your ZIP file to your Web server. If you do not have your own web hosting account, sign up for a free hosting account on Box.net, File Factory (filefactory.com) or File Dropper (filedropper.com). Make careful note of the exact address at which you uploaded your ZIP file; for example, if your personal website is 'domain.com' and you uploaded 'myzip.zip' into the folder called 'files,' the exact URL would be domain.com/files/myzip.zip.
Paste the following HTML link code in the Web page, blog post or other online content where you want to create a download link: Download ZIP File. Type the exact URL of your ZIP file in-between the two quotation marks. Edit 'Download Zip File' to reflect your desired link text.
Save or upload your online content. It now has a link to download the ZIP file you uploaded.

I Could Not Connect to the Server in FileZilla 1and1In Feburary 2016 08,

In Feburary 2016 08,
Users often confuse hosting accounts with FTP accounts. You enter the username and password for your hosting account to access the website control panel on 1and1. This username and password is not even relevant to FileZilla. Instead, you need to retrieve the details for your FTP account to use FileZilla. You get an FTP username and password in the welcome email when you join. If you no longer have access to this email, get your FTP username from inside the panel and set up a new password.
Account Management
Access your admin control panel by logging into your hosting account. If you have more than one domain, choose which one you want to administer. Select 'FTP Accounts' in the 'Webspace' menu to see your username -- this is the username that you enter into FileZilla to upload files to your website. However, because the password is hidden even in your own account for security reasons, you need to create a new password if you do not know it. Click 'Edit' to see the option to create a new password. Write this and the username down on a piece of paper to make sure you are using the correct account details in FileZilla. You can also click 'New User' to set up additional usernames and passwords for FTP purposes.
Establishing a Connection
Now that you are sure you have the correct username and password for your FTP account, you need to enter the correct information in FileZilla. Open the software, then click the 'Site Manager' icon, which has an image of two computers, near the top. In the window that pops up, select 'New Site' and enter any name for this site, then enter your website address; however, do not enter the 'http' and 'www' portions of the address -- for example, enter 'MySite.com,' not 'www.MySite.com.' Leave the port as '21' and the server type as 'FTP,' but change the 'Logontype' option to 'Normal.' Enter the FTP username and password that you've retrieved from the 'FTP Accounts' section in your 1and1 hosting account. Click 'Save and Exit.' To establish a connection, click the 'Site Manager' icon again, select your website and click 'Connect.'
Other Troubleshooting
If you are still experiencing connection problems, you may have an issue with the FileZilla FTP utility. Because this is free software, download another copy from FileZilla's website. If you still cannot connect with a new copy, 1and1 may be having a server issue; call 866-991-2631 to check the server's status. Another option is to try another free FTP client to isolate whether the problem is FileZilla or 1and1. Examples include Core FTP and Go FTP.

Hosting Sites That Offer Streaming Video CapabilitiesIn Feburary 2016 08,

In Feburary 2016 08,
The Host Gator Web-hosting company offers third-party, iframe/object-embed streaming on all its shared, dedicated and VPS servers. However, only the much-more expensive dedicated and VPS servers allow developers to stream live content, such as from a news feed or business conference. Prices for these servers range between $250 to $400. In addition, its shared servers do not support the streaming of any Flash content.
Go Daddy
Go Daddy's shared servers lack support for streaming live video, but they do support the embedding of video files from other sources, such as YouTube or VEOH. Its dedicated servers support all video content, and its servers are much less expensive than those from Host Gator. Keep in mind, however, that the servers include weaker processors, less RAM and a cap on bandwidth.
Cirtex Hosting
Dubbed a genuine video hosting service, Cirtex Hosting offers unlimited video streaming for a minimum of $2.49 per month. In fact, the company claims that one could potentially host a site just like YouTube on its servers. The only limit would be the bandwidth, which starts at 10 Mbps with shared servers and rises to 100 Mbps with dedicated servers.
Host Monster
Host Monster supports streaming video content that is either stored on one of its servers or streamed from a third-party website. The benefit of streaming from another site is that it won't tap into the server's bandwidth. Though the site claims to offer unlimited bandwidth, its up-time is not as high as that of Host Gator, Go Daddy and Cirtex.

How to Set Up a Website URLIn Feburary 2016 06,

In Feburary 2016 06,
Get a URL. URL stands for uniform resource locater and this is how people find you on the web. Come up with a good name that will communicate exactly who you are and what you do or want to do. You also need to do this with as short a name as possible so that when you tell people your URL, they will be able to remember it. You will have to try several names for your URL, though, because most of the best simple URLs are already taken. Go to a domain name registrar and register your URL. The registrar will let you search for URLs and tell you if they are taken. Some registrars are located in the resource section below.
Find a host. To have a website you need to have a place that will host your files. Your files are what comprise your website. A host is the place that keeps all of your files and the URL points to these files. Hosting can range in price from $5 a month to several hundred (as of 2009). For most beginners, the cheap option is fine. IWhen you have a large organization that will have thousands of visitors or more a day, then you need expensive hosting that will accommodate an extremely large amount of traffic. Most hosting companies will give you the ability to register your URL directly with them. This is the best option because if you register elsewhere you will have to point that registrar to your host. This is not extremely difficult but is an extra step.
Create a site. To get your site going you will need to create at least one page called a homepage. You will need to either use website creation software or create this manually. It is much simpler to do this with software like Frontpage or Dreamweaver. Some hosts have a built-in tool to help you make pages. You can also use a content management system or CMS. A CMS is software that you install with your host or they may already have it set up to use. Every host provider will give specific instructions on where and how to upload your files and how to use a CMS if they have the ability; you just need to ask the host. Some examples of CMS tools are Wordpress and Joomla. If you are not using a CMS, then your homepage needs to be called index.htm or index.html. The index page is the page that will come up when anyone types in your URL.
Learn and improve. Your site is setup and your URL should now be working. Now just start building more web pages and links to improve your site. You can do this by learning some HTML and learning more about your software or CMS tool.
