| Hosting FAQ |
| 10.29.03 (9:57 am) [edit] |
 For those of you that are new to the web host scene, here is a quick FAQ that will give you the basics:| Hosting FAQ | | Apache: One of the world's most popular Web server programs, Apache was built by a group of open-source programmers and is often used because of its outstanding performance, strong security features and the fact that it is free. | Bandwidth: The amount of data that can be transmitted at a given moment to a server. The higher your bandwidth, the larger amount of traffic your site can handle at one time. | CGI: Short for Common Gateway Interface, a small script that processes data taken from the user (such as from a form application). | Co-located hosting: This hosting option gives webmasters complete control over their server. You are responsible for providing the physical hardware and network administration; the hosting company will provide you with the rack space and Internet connection. | Dedicated hosting: A hosting feature that allows a Web site to have its own server. | FTP: Short for File Transfer Protocol, a method of allowing remote users and Web servers to exchange files. | Managed hosting: A dedicated server that is accompanied by a full suite of technical support, maintenance and monitoring services. | Name server: A server responsible for translating domain names and IP addresses. | Propagation: The process where name servers throughout the Internet add new domains and remove expired ones from their records. This can be a lengthy process, which is why connecting to a new domain name can often take three or four days. | Reseller: A reseller operates components of a Web hosting operation using services, infrastructure and equipment provided by another Web hosting service. | Shared hosting: The most basic of Web hosting types. With shared hosting, numerous Web sites are shared on one server. | SSL: Short for Secure Sockets Layer, a protocol developed by Netscape to handle and protect confidential/sensitive information required for e-commerce transactions (like credit card numbers). | Subdomain: Typically known as a "domain within a domain", subdomains are individual Web addresses built upon a pre-existing domain name (such as clientname.yourhostingcompany.com). | Telnet: A command-line interface that allows remote users and Web servers to communicate. |
Ok, so that wasn't too quick but hopefully it was helpful. :wink:

:arrow: Host Rocket is one of the bigger players in the hosting game. They have shared plans, dedicated servers, and even free hosting accounts. They also have a new feature called rollover bandwidth that allowes you to rollover your unused bandwidth month to month.
Their plans start at $9.99 a month which gets you 1000 mb's of space and 50 gigs of bandwidth and their dedicated servers start at $115 a month. Their free hosting includes a subdomain, 25 mb's of space, and 2 gigs of bandwidth. Not to mention they have one of the best designs I have seen for any host. 8)

| What to Look for In A Host... |
| 10.28.03 (5:06 pm) [edit] |
:idea: Here are a few things that I feel are important when choosing a host besides the amount of space and bandwidth they offer:
-Price
-Support
-SSI
-PHP/MYSQL
-Uptime
-Extensive FAQ's
-Money Back Gurantee
-No Setup Fee
-Customer Opinions
-Professionalism
Take into account all of those variables anytime you are comparing webhost.

and all for only $6.95 a month. However, I do not know the reputation of this host, but they seem to be a reputable company thats worth a try. If you have any experience with this host, please email me at mshelton1984@yahoo.com or post a comment.
