How To Select Your Web Hosting Company !

In this article we will explain the various types of website hosting. Detailing what you may need for your website, how much to pay e.t.c.

We are only going to be talking about managed hosted servers, i.e the hosting 99% people use for normal websites.

Time to explain – so lets get started.

What is a managed website hosting server?

The web host server simply provides your website to anybody that types in your domain name. Your domain name points to a location on a web host server and this location would normally have your website in it.

The first thing you need to do is work out exactly what you want from your website hosting provider. If you don’t have any specific need for Microsoft Hosting to use Access or Visual basic scripts then you should choose Linux/Unix hosting service.

Most hosting providers provide pretty much the same features for example.

Small Package:- Web-space 5GB, Bandwidth 5GB, Email Accounts 10, Sub Domains 10, …

Medium Package:- Web-space 10GB, Bandwidth 10GB, Email Accounts 20, Sub Domains 20, …

Large Package:- Web-space 20GB, Bandwidth 20GB, Email Accounts 50, Sub Domains 50, …

Professional Package:-Unlimited with auto-responder integrated

I would generally recommend purchasing the smallest package and then upgrade at a later date if you need to, almost every hosting package is on a 12 month contract. Its always easier to upgrade than downgrade to a smaller cheaper package.

So what do all the features do?

Web-space: The amount of web-space provided on the server, most websites are very small about 200mb for a average site.

Bandwidth / Traffic allowance: This is the amount of data that you are providing to people, web-page use little bandwidth and videos use lots of bandwidth. You tube for example use a large amount of bandwidth because of the big files and the high number of users.

My SQL Databases: Many websites depend on my SQL databases for features such as forums, blogs, forms, customer forms, ecommerce and more. A single my SQL database can be used for multiple features but if you have heavy usage then it would be better to split to load over several my SQL databases.

WYSIWYG – A Feature that is vital in giving you control of your online business is key to saving you time and cutting your costs.

You do not have to be a programmer or a designer with a hosting company that includes this feature like MyExpressSite, What does it give you? – Well you simply choose a template and add your content and you are up and running! Our domain integration makes it easy to connect your pages with your domains.

Customer Service: I highly recommend choosing a host with 24 Hour telephone support, from time to time you will need to contact them for problems you never expect to occur. I recently lost secure encryption on one of my domains than should of automatically renewed. A phone call fixed the problem.

Cost: The cost varies greatly, some company provide very cheap domains with more expensive hosting and some vice versa. Shop around and see what offers you can get but try not to be suckered in by stuff you don’t need. A typical medium package should not cost more than $9.99 a month.

All of the hosting providers will have a huge list of all the features their package has, but they are all pretty much the same, they all do the same things.

The above is the important Bits and parts you need to consider.

Ashmax Sceptics Eat Humble Pie As Ashmax Success Changes Lives

Well now Readers, it seems the governments aren’t the only ones capable of a tactical U-turn.
Granted it often takes being exposed to an internet business 4 or 5 times before the message
sinks in and grabs our imagination.

This is the main reason most of us use autoresponders and list building, to ensure we can guide interested prospects back to our businesses again and again.

It seems that with Ashmax, that peoples circle of friends are the ones redirecting them back over and over.
When enough of your friends tell you that you’re missing out, there comes a point to start listening.
Just be careful not to take too long, you may find you have no friends of your own left to bring to your business.

Many old fashioned businesses like Avon, Tupperware and Amway were built on the introduction of family and friends. Today however that fashion has died away.

Up until now that is.

Over 30,000 members in just 8 weeks have been filling the pockets of family and friends using the Free no selling Ashmax website.

Ashmax has rekindled the imaginations of average Joe public that an additional income is a blessing these days, especially if it can be done without the skills of marketing online using the technicalities of blogs, adwords or SEO.

Who wants to be rich and lonely, nobody, right ?
So it stands to reason that with Ashmax creating upwards of £10,000 per month, your immediate circle is the obvious choice of partners and lots of them are now understanding this.
So the die-hard sceptics are now standing alone or joining the fun.

Maybe it’s time to go take another look at Ashmax, but this time visualise the potential.

StumbleUpon’s Platform Getting Advertisers’ Attention
StumbleUpon Ads See 20% Growth

By Chris Crum

Earlier this year, StumbleUpon launched its new advertising system, which it said helps cost-effectively deliver advertiser content to targeted audiences, while increasing the opportunity for content to go viral. Since then, the platform has experienced some pretty significant growth.

The company announced today that it has experienced 20% growth since the launch in March, with about 2,000 active monthly customers running about 3,000 campaigns daily.

“Brand marketers and advertisers have recognized that StumbleUpon Ads can attract highly targeted audiences to their web content quickly and cost-effectively,” said CEO Garrett Camp. “We’re able to match each sponsored page to the users most likely to enjoy it by taking into account their expressed preferences as well as the interest-level relationships between them and other users. This personalized approach results in over 70 percent of paid placements receiving a positive endorsement – which we call a ‘thumb-up’- from viewers. No other interest-based ad platform so effectively connects advertisers to potential customers while delivering viral traffic to a like-minded audience.”

StumbleUpon advertisingThe company says that over 40,000 advertisers have used its ad platform, and year-over-year ad inclusion rate has doubled. Its number of daily active advertisers has increased by about 30%.

Mint.com’s VP of Marketing said, “StumbleUpon Ads is the most cost-effective form of advertising that we have used, including pay-per-click advertising on a popular social networking site. We’ve been very pleased with the high quality of traffic and conversion rates StumbleUpon provides, and have seen more than half of that traffic appear organically.”

Back in May, StumbleUpon claimed to be the #1 social media traffic source for the U.S. This came a couple weeks after Statcounter called StumbleUpon the #2 traffic source on a global scale, just behind Facebook.

In June, StumbleUpon reached its 10 million-user milestone. Imagine the kind of traffic it could drive if it had Facebook’s 500 million.
