Select your VPS service. Follow the link in Resources below to browse hosting packages and prices. Select a service with a plan that suits your individual needs.
Click on the 'Sign Up' link on your chosen service's website. Fill out the forms and payment options as prompted. When you are done, wait for the service to process your application. When the service has created your account and virtual private server, it will send you an email with your login credentials.
Navigate to your chosen service's website, click 'My Account' and log in to your account with your user name and password. The first time you log in, the service will ask you to make some choices to configure your server. You will be prompted to make these selections after you log in.
Select your kernel. Most VPS services will offer a variety of Linux kernels to install on your server. If you know which kernel you want to run, select it. If you are unsure, choosing the Ubuntu kernel is a safe choice.
Select the size of your first partition. When you signed up for the VPS service, you chose a plan with a certain amount of disk space. You can choose to dedicate all of this space to a single partition. If you want to host multiple websites from your VPS, you can also choose to make a smaller first partition and then create more partitions from the remaining space.
Write down the IP address of each of your VPS partitions. These will be displayed on your account page. If you created only one partition, then you will have only one IP address.
Open a program on your computer capable of running the Secure Shell (SSH). If you are on Linux or Mac OS X, then this will be your Terminal application. If you are on Windows, download PuTTY (see Resources).
Type 'ssh root@your-partition's-ip-address' into your SSH-capable application, and press 'Enter' to access your VPS. Type in your account's password when prompted. After this, you will be logged in to your VPS, ready to install your server software and configure it to your needs.

Meaning of a Domain Name ExtensionIn Feburary 2016 21,
In Feburary 2016 21,
There are two basic types of domain name extensions: country code top-level domains, and generic top-level domains. Further, generic top-level domains can be either sponsored or unsponsored.
Country Codes
If the domain name extension of a website is only two characters long, then it's a country code top-level domain, or 'ccTLD.' Examples include '.us' for the United States, '.br' for Brazil and '.de' for Germany (Deutschland). Country codes are managed by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority, and as of 2010, there were nearly 250 ccTLDs, one for every country in the world plus special-status territories such as Hong Kong (.hk), the Falkland Islands (.fk) or Puerto Rico (.pr). Each country designates a government agency or a private company to handle registrations under its ccTLD, and each can set its own rules for who or what can register. Some allow only their own citizens or businesses to register, others allow anyone to register--and some actively market their ccTLDs as a source of revenue. Two examples of the latter are the Pacific Ocean island nations of Tuvalu (.tv) and the Federated States of Micronesia (.fm).
Unsponsored
The most common domain name extensions are the unsponsored generic TLDs. They're called 'unsponsored' because no agency approves registrations; anyone anywhere in the world can register domains with these extensions. Unsponsored TLDs include '.com,' '.org' and '.net.' Generally, '.com' sites are commercial, '.org' websites belong to non-profits and trade associations, and '.net' addresses are used by Internet-related companies, but these categories are not enforced at all. If you go to register a domain with a '.org' extension, no one is going to check whether your organization qualifies. Other unsponsored generic TLDs include '.info,' '.biz' and '.name.'
Sponsored
Sponsored generic top-level domains are those that have a gatekeeper--an agency or organization that decides who can and can't register. The most familiar sponsored extensions are '.gov,' which is managed by the U.S. federal government; '.edu,' which is open only to post-secondary educational institutions accredited by an agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education; and '.mil,' reserved for the U.S. military. Other sponsored TLDs include '.aero' for the air-transport industry; '.asia' for Asia-Pacific entities; '.cat' for Catalan language and cultural sites; '.coop' for cooperatives; '.int' for international organizations; '.jobs' for human resources managers; '.mobi' for the mobile communications industry; '.museum' for museums; and '.travel' for the travel and tourism industry.
Direction
Lists of all websites registered under each TLD are stored on 'root servers' maintained in 13 clusters around the world for redundancy. When you punch a Web address into your browser, the first place it looks is the root server list for the TLD in the address; that list points it to the proper 'name server' for the website.

How to Make a Gaming Clan WebsiteIn Feburary 2016 16,
In Feburary 2016 16,
Where you build your guild's website ultimately depends on the features it has to offer and what you think you'll need. For example, Enjin features specially-designed raid boss trackers specifically for 'The Old Republic,' making it a good option for guilds in that MMO. On the other hand, Shivtr sports a client that can be used while playing hundreds of other games, letting clans keep in contact even when they're not playing the same game. Guild Portal is another website that offers one of the most comprehensive list of modules, offering a major variety for clans and guilds with different preferences.
Bonus Features to Consider
Consider some of the other features you'd like to have. If it's not so important that members talk to each other outside of the game, maybe you'll need a service that gives you a private forum; this way, players can discuss strategies with one another on their own schedule. A private messaging system can also help you get announcements to your group, such as a change in your normal gaming schedule, if they're otherwise difficult to reach all at once.
Displaying Clan Achievements on the Site
One of the benefits of creating a site for your clan includes getting to decide how you design the layout. Be sure to show off some of your best achievements right away; if your site uses trackers to show off how many difficult bosses you've defeated, use them. If you want a public forum, be sure to have some links to recent threads on the sidebar as well. Adding a news module for updates that everyone can read also brings life to the website; frequently posting news shows that you're still an active force to be reckoned with.
Advertising the Clan with Prospective Members
However you build your site, be sure to post an update wherever your current clan members already visit; for instance, updating the Message of the Day in 'World of Warcraft' ensures any guild members see the new address upon logging in. If you need new members, consider adding your guild's name and details to clan directories or posting on gaming forums that permit that sort of soliciting; try starting with the game's official forums since many have a recruiting or advertising section for clans and guilds. For example, the 'Call of Duty' community features a section exclusively for clan recruitment.
