webserver? how do i make one of the sql s start trying to host?

hi there,

1. First you need a static ip for your router or you need to configure DynamicDns settings from your router.
2. For free dns records register with www.everydns.net and choose a website name, create a Forward lookup for you Domain name that is mapped to your IP.
3. make sure that you websever is running.
4. from you router forward port 80 to your local machine where your webserver is hosted.
5. make sure that your firewall is not blocking port 80

thats it you are done.

I’m trying to create a onepage document for our business on how to install and set up the newest, 2.51 version of Wordpress with your own domain where your host uses cPanel and Fantastiko. Wordpress’s own documentation is too complex, so please don’t just copy and paste that. 10 points to the first person to explain this in your own concise words.

well i will tell you simple way.. So install manually ok… because i always install manually…..so i will tell u step by step. ok

1-download wordpress latest version from this link http://wordpress.org/download/

2-Extract all files and upload to your website.
3- Now make database from your cpanel and add user also, make sure when you add user give all privileges.
4- Now come back to to the files of wordpress. there is a file wp-config-sample.php open this file and change text there. means you have to enter database name and username and password. but there is line of prefix, juts leave it as same. now save the file.
5- rename the file wp-config-sample.php to wp-config and delete the old file from ur hosting space. and upload that one wp-config.php
5- now installing program do like this http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-admin/install.php
6- enter specific email and pass.

now your wordpresss is install.. hope this is helpful to u…..

I am wanting to start a small web hosting company, and want my expenses to be minimized as much as possible. Is VPS the right choice or any other ideas? Thanks.

Simply put – no. Unless you get a very high powered VPS (i.e. expensive) then no; your best bet for a small webhost would be a reseller account with a host on a dedi ;)

How do I automate tasks, e.g. backup, if my shared hosting company does not allow cron jobs?
Thanks

YA sure they Don’t

I havn’t done this for a couple years and the last time I did I used Plesk and absolutely hated it. I am so confused right now.

I bought my domain.
I have everything confirmed.
I bought Linux hosting.

How do I get into Linux to get everything started? I was sent an email to show me how to USE Linux but now how to get into it. I dont mean to sound like a newb but I am so frustrated.

Login to your web hosting account and upload few files using file manager or else you may contact a web designer at website like http://oktutorial.com/ to set it up for you.

My friend would like to search for a reliable Dedicated hosting service provider, I’ve referred to

http://www.webhost4lifereview.com/best-dedicated-hosting-server/

Anyone can recommend another Dedicated Webhosting Provider?

Thanks

I am only going on what i have heard via forums and people i know who have hosting with them but Innohosting seems to be a very reliable host as are InMotion Hosting who were highly rated by CNET i believe.

Hopes this helps

what is a file hosting site that is free that doesn’t have an upload limit or whatever and the files wont delete after ninety days or 30? and if there is one where i can upload multiple files at once for different links. anyone know. i am just uploading zip files of my beat albums onto my website there about 18 megs.

http://skydrive.live.com/

25 gb free. I think that beats everything else out there.

I tried freewebs, and many others, but they all sow the website, and then my requested name. Is there any free website hosting site that won’t do that?

You can use a cjb.net domain. They allow you to set nameservers. Then your address will be http://www.yoursite.cjb.net/ . You can set the nameserver by logging in to your account. They only allow you to set one nameserver. For example, ns1.electedhosting.com . And you can get free hosting at http://addyour.net or http://www.byethost.com .

I need to host my website, gets only 200 visitors per day, so I need small bandwidth web hosting , but it needs to be cheap and reliable, and should be up 24×7 .

I am hosting my website at http://aplis.net/ . You can also give them a try. First month free.
