Uninstall all Joomla extensions before removing the actual back-end software. If you do not have any extensions, skip to Step 3. To uninstall extensions, login to Joomla. If you do not remember your Joomla login information, consult the confirmation email you received when installing the software. This email contains the personalized link that will allow you to sign-in to the Joomla service.
Click the drop-down menu in the left-hand side of your Joomla screen. Select 'Extensions' from the menu. Click the name of each extension that you have running. Joomla will then display the extension's settings page. Click the uninstall icon, which looks like a trash can. Joomla will alert you when the uninstall process is complete. Repeat for each extension.
Launch your FTP software (e.g., Cyberduck for Mac or Fetch for Windows PCs). Login to your web host server. Wait for the FTP software to load a list of all of the files and folders for the web site. Right-click the folder entitled 'Joomla' and select 'Delete' from the pop-up menu. This will delete all of the program files for the software.
Login to your web host account and access the MySQL database page. The location of this setting varies according to your web host provider. If you are unsure of where to find the settings for your databases, contact the customer service department at the hosting company.
Delete the database you used to operate Joomla. Joomla is now completely uninstalled.

How to Create a Turnkey Web SiteIn Feburary 2016 29,
In Feburary 2016 29,
Choose a market niche for your turnkey site. Websites that focus on niches are popular and can generate a significant revenue have the greatest chance of being sold. Think of industries that have a large advertising network. For example, a website on dog care serves a large audience and also has a wide range of companies who would want to advertise dog care products. In contrast, a site about raising ants will have a much narrower audience and less appeal to advertisers and entrepreneurs.
Sign up for budget web hosting. When attempting to create a turnkey website, minimizing your overhead costs will help you realize the greatest profit when selling the site. You also want a host that is able to transfer ownership of the domain and hosting account for free. Examples of budget webhosts that can do this include Fat Cow and Blue Host (see Resources).
Build the turnkey site. If building the site from a blank page, use a visual site editor (e.g. Dreamweaver) or a standard text editor if you are comfortable with your level of HTML expertise. Alternatively, purchase a professional website template. Templates are popular among those who create turnkey websites because they minimize the time it takes to get the site up and running. Avoid free website template sites as they often offer low-quality templates that are not always standards-compliant. Dreamtemplate is an example of a professional template provider (see Resources).
Propagate your site with keyword-targeted, original content. Include a minimum of five to 10 pages for the site. Think about the keywords that will attract advertisers. Stay focused on your turnkey website's overall theme. For example, a dog care site may have web pages on dog breeds; dog grooming tips; dog grooming product reviews; and dog feeding and nutrition guides. The more pages you include with the turnkey site, the higher your chance of selling the site quickly.
Insert advertising and affiliate programs. Popular examples include Google AdSense, Commission Junction and Amazon Associates. You may insert your own code, which the purchaser will then replace with his or her own affiliate codes. Alternatively, simply insert 'Ad Here' or similar text to notify the purchaser of the locations of ad spots. However, successful turnkey websites will come with affiliate codes pre-installed and income reports to show potential buyers of the site's income potential.
Upload the website to the web host you chose in Step 2 using your FTP software. Enter your server name and password into the FTP software to connect with the server. If you do not know this information, it may be found in the registration material sent to you by the host when you originally registered. Once connected, upload the templates and pages you've created. Your turnkey site is now online.
List the turnkey site you've created for sale. You may wish to post it for free on an online classified ads website such as Craigslist. Alternatively, list the site for sale on an online marketplace specializing in turnkey website sales. One of the most popular and well-known sites that do this is the Sitepoint Marketplace (see Resources).

How to Make a Proxy WebsiteIn Feburary 2016 29,
In Feburary 2016 29,
Open an account at a web host that allows proxy websites. Many hosting companies do not allow proxies because they can generate a large amount of traffic that overloads the servers. Those that do allow proxy websites will typically prefer that you have a Virtual Private Server (VPS) or a dedicated server. Most hosts do not allow web proxies on a shared server.
Obtain a copy of PHProxy. This script acts as the software to power your proxy site. PHProxy is available free of charge, so anyone can make a proxy website without spending a lot of money.
Log into the control panel for your web hosting account. Create a MySQL database that will be used by the PHProxy script. Make note of the database name, user name and password that is associated with the database. This information is needed to configure the script to communicate with the database.
Edit the config.php file that is included with the script. Open the file with a HTML editor so that you can edit the contents of the file and save the new copy. Use Windows Notepad if you do not have a HTML editor. Simply open the file, edit the website name, website address, database name, database user name and database password. Save the file after the information has been edited.
Use an FTP program to upload all of the files to your hosting account. You can download a free copy of Filezilla FTP if you do not already have a program. Simply upload all of the files and folders included with PHProxy to your web hosting account. Your proxy website should now be operational.
Read the documentation that is included with PHProxy. Follow the instructions in the documentation to customize your script, such as changing colors, page layout or other visual elements. This will help you make a FTP website that stands out.

How to Host a Successful PartyIn Feburary 2016 29,
In Feburary 2016 29,
Pick a theme for your party. It doesn't have to be anything elaborate but it should be the reason friends are gathering to celebrate. A loved one's homecoming, an engagement announcement, or a block party to meet the neighbors are only a few examples of party themes; decide upon yours and plan the rest of the party around the theme.
Send out the invitations. Optimally, guests should receive their invitations 2 weeks before the party. This gives them time to schedule the event into their time frame, arrange for babysitters or make travel arrangements. If a guest will be traveling a long ways, the earlier they get the invitation, the better.
Create the proper atmosphere. Parties should be fun. If you're hosting the party at home, look at your surroundings with a critical eye. Put knickknacks away for a clean look and add a banner or decorations to make the room more festive. Provide adequate seating for your guests.
Schedule the party events. Allow enough time for guest arrival before serving a meal or showing a film. If your party centers around a televised sports event, plan for guests to arrive at least 30 minutes before the event starts. Allow time for latecomers if you're planning a sit-down meal.
Plan your food list and shop a few days ahead of time. Dishes that can be prepared in advance and frozen will save you much-needed time on the day of the party. If you're hiring a caterer, she will need lots of advance notice of your menu and the number of guests you are expecting. Popular caterers are often booked months in advance.
Double-check the details the night before the party by doing a quick walkthrough, starting at your front door, as if you were a guest, and proceeding through your home. Make sure there is an area for guest's coats, extra soap and clean hand towels in the bathroom. Count your serving plates and glasses to make sure there are enough.
Dress early for the party to prevent last minute dashing. Some guests may arrive early and you'll need to be ready. Preparation is the key to a successful party.
Greet all your guests in person, if possible, and welcome them to your home. Follow your schedule, excusing yourself to tend to party needs and relax. Even in the best-planned events, something inevitably goes awry. Smile and focus on having fun.

How to Organize a Dog Walk FundraiserIn Feburary 2016 28,
In Feburary 2016 28,
Choose a cause and name. Organizing a fundraiser takes a certain amount of work, so pick a mission that is important to you; select an appropriate name. For example, if you're raising money to help find dogs homes, you can name your event, 'Quarters for Canines.' Other possible names include 'Positive Pooches' and 'Million Mutt March.'
Pick a date and location. Scout your area to find a good spot to hold your fundraiser. Chock out local parks and schools, to see if they have a loop or track you can use. Map out a route on streets that will cause the least amount of traffic congestion. Talk to the appropriate authorities; secure the location for a certain time. Choose a date in the spring or summer, so walkers and pets won't be cold.
Obtain sponsors. Many businesses will be eager to partner with you in your fundraiser. Not only do they get to help an important cause, but they will be able to advertise their products as well. Pair up with a food company that can provide refreshments. Pick a bank that will have its logo printed on t-shirts that you can give to the walkers.
Set a fundraising goal and price fees. Even if your target is just a few hundred dollars, the money will tremendously help needy animals. Pick a goal that is reasonable, then decide how you want to charge walkers. You can charge a flat fee to walk, or the walkers themselves can ask for donations, depending on how far they walk.
Advertise. Pass out flyers and hang posters around the area of the walk. Ask newspapers and radios to run ads for your event. If possible, find a celebrity to endorse your cause and be a part of the fundraiser. This will raise awareness and get people excited about participating.
Bring supplies. For the day of the event, come prepared with treats and waste bags for the dogs. Make sure that there are trash bins along the route so owners can throw their dog's waste away. If you're not providing refreshments, remind the owners to bring snacks and water for themselves.

How to Start an Online Supplement StoreIn Feburary 2016 28,
In Feburary 2016 28,
Set up a spare bedroom or basement for your business office.
Create a name for your store. Register your business name as your DBA (doing business as) through your county or city. Apply for a vendor's license at the same location because you will have to pay sales taxes on in-state customers.
Find a wholesale or manufacturer supplier. Access the National Association of Wholesaler-Distributors (NAW) at naw.org. Write the NAW for a list of wholesale suppliers. Visit Thomasnet.com and search for various manufacturer suppliers, according to Businessknowhow.com.
Call several wholesale and manufacturer suppliers. Ask what types of products they sell. Obtain price lists so you can compare the unit costs for all products. Ask the suppliers if they drop-ship products, meaning they will ship products to your customers for you. Use a drop-shipper if you want to avoid carrying inventory in your home. Choose the supplier offering the lowest per-unit cost on vitamins.
Create a website. Use some of the free website templates available at Yahoo.com or Freesitetemplates.com. Add pictures and descriptions of your vitamins, supplements and protein products.
Create a domain name or URL (uniform resource locator) for your store. Go to Register.com or Godaddy.com and see if your domain name is available. Select the domain name, if it is indeed available.
Find a company to host your website, such as Yahoo.com or Godaddy.com. Upload your website to the Internet per the instructions of your web host company.
Advertise your online supplement store in health magazines like 'Muscle and Fitness' or 'Iron Man.' Start out with small classifieds. Use larger display ads as your profits increase. Promote your website in various search engines like Google.com, Lycos.com and Altavista.com.
Retain the names and e-mails of customers. Email them monthly coupons and special deals.
