How to Create a Website for a Retail BusinessIn Feburary 2016 24,
In Feburary 2016 24,
Purchase a domain name from a Web registrar or website hosting company such as GoDaddy, JustHost.com or HostGator. Make your domain name similar to your store name if you already have a traditional brick-and-mortar retail shop. Alternatively, try to think of a brandable domain name---one that is short so that customers will remember it.
Purchase a website hosting subscription from a hosting company. Look for a Web hosting service that o contains a one-click system for installing scripts and includes free eCommerce shopping carts, such as Fantastico. For Web hosting plans, most retail businesses need to invest $10 to $20 for a monthly subscription plan (as of 2010).
Decide on an eCommerce shopping cart program. Both free and paid versions of website shopping carts exist. Free programs include Zen Cart and osCommerce, while paid ones include BigCommerce and X-Cart Pro.
Log in to your Web hosting control panel. Upload and install the eCommerce shopping cart program to your website. Create a username and password for the program's administration side.
Shopping Cart Setup
Log in to the administration side of your retail shopping cart website. Familiarize yourself with the user control panel, inventory control system, catalog and product manager as well as the different checkout features like online discounts and coupons.
Edit the layout design of your shopping cart program, and customize your retail store's appearance through the shopping cart administration panel. Most shopping cart software comes with several layout templates you can choose from, which will show featured items and/or allow you to rearrange the main sections and sidebars of your site. These website design capabilities should also provide you with the ability to upload an image of your store logo and your website header.
Create product categories and organize your product listings. Organize and name your categories using main and sub-categories. For example, an apparel retail business may have main product categories such as Men's Clothing, Women's Clothing and Children's Clothing.
Create product listings for each category. Give each product a name and an accurate description, explaining each in terms of size, color and other important features. Also set prices, quantities available and other relevant details such as product weight for shipping purposes.
Edit the shipping module section. Set either a flat-rate shipping price for all orders or make shipping rates order- and weight-dependent. Add shipping vendors that you'll use to fulfill orders such as United States Postal Service, United Parcel Service and FedEx.
Customize the payment section of your site to integrate payment gateways. Add your PayPal credentials or insert your Google Checkout Merchant number and key if you want to offer these checkout methods.
Log out of your shopping cart program's administration panel. Test your retail business website by making a test purchase and navigating your entire site from the customer's side.

How to Set up a Free Classified SiteIn Feburary 2016 22,
In Feburary 2016 22,
Come up with a plan for your classified website. Figure out what type of classified ad site you want to set up. Go online and do your research of various online classified scripts before you make your purchase. Look in Resources for recommendations.
Register your domain name (see Resources). The domain name registrar will give you access to your domain's control panel.
Purchase a hosting package. Make sure your Web hosting package meets all the requirements of your script for it to install and work properly. If you are not sure, contact tech support. Setting up the hosting will give you access to your FTP server and your DNS server entries.

Log into your domain's control panel and change its DNS settings to point to your Web host's server.
Log into your Web host's CPanel and look for the MySQL icon. Open it to create a database for your classified script. If you are not sure about how to do this, contact the script's tech support team for help.
Download an FTP program. An FTP program transfers files between your computer and your Web host.
Log into your Web host's server using your FTP program and its authentication settings. Now upload the script files to your Web host's server.
Open your Web browser, type your Web address in the Search box and click 'Search.' You should see your new classified website.

How to Rename My DomainIn Feburary 2016 19,
In Feburary 2016 19,
Buy a new domain name from an online seller such as GoDaddy.com, Domain.com or CheckDomain.com. You usually hold the name for one or two years. Selecting 'auto renewal' means the company will automatically charge you at the end of that period, so you can keep the domain name for another year or two years. As of 2010, it usually costs $10 to $20 per year.
Log into the control panel of your hosting account. You already have this if you have been running a website under another domain name. Otherwise, buy hosting (space on the web to hold your website)from a site such as HostGator.com, GoDaddy.com or ASmallOrange.com.
Go to the 'Domains' section of your hosting account. If the service allows you to change the domain name manually, the relevant heading will be something like 'Primary Domain' or 'Change Primary Domain.' Click to enter the section, type in your new domain name and click 'OK' or the equivalent to confirm.
Log into the program you use to design, edit and publish your website. Publish the website, entering the new domain name or ftp address (available from your hosting provider) and password when prompted.
Alternatives
Email or phone your hosting provider directly to request a change to your primary domain name. Some providers do not allow you to change the domain name manually. Tell them your new domain name and republish the website when the provider confirms the change.
Log into the control panel of your hosting account, go to 'Domains' or the equivalent section, select 'Forward Domain' and enter your new domain name. You do not have to republish. Typing the new domain name into the address bar takes users directly to the site under the previous domain name.
Select 'Mask domain' when adding the forward domain if you do not want users to be able to see the old domain name. It will still direct users to the previous site, but only the new domain name will be visible in the address bar.

How to Sell Server SpaceIn Feburary 2016 15,
In Feburary 2016 15,
Set up your web server. You can either build one, purchase one, or rent space on an existing web server. Next you will need to insure the server is connected to a high speed internet connection with a dedicated ip address. Then purchase a domain name and configure name servers such as ns1.yourdomain.com and ns2.yourdomain.com. This will allow those buying web server space from you to point their domains to your web server. Ensure the necessary programs and software are installed, such as the Linux Operating System, Apache Server software, PHP programming environment, and MySQL databases.
Select your administration software. One of the most automatic and easy to use web server administration software is the combination of cPanel and Web Host Manger (WHM). This will allow you to quickly and easily setup new web sites on your server, perform administrative tasks, as well as give limited control and configuration to your customers.
Set up hosting packages. You should create different price points for different packages which include different features and level of storage space and bandwidth. This can be easily done with WHM. Make sure to assign the correct package when setting up a new site for a customer. Changes or upgrades can be easily made as well.
Create a web site to advertise, display the pricing and details of each package, and to take credit card orders is an effective and helpful way to bring in new customers. Create language about support, terms of conditions, ways to order, information about your company, and more.
Set up a PayPal account to accept credit card payments. One of the most cost effective and easiest ways to accept recurring monthly billing through credit cards is with PayPal subscriptions. Creating a PayPal account is free with a 3 to 5 percent fee charged to each order. PayPal is a commonly used method and allows for purchase with a PayPal account, credit card, or debit card. When configured correctly the order will automatically bill each month, year, or whatever period you set up. You can easily email an invoice with a payment link or embed the payment link into your web site.
Create or rent a daily backup solution so that your data and those of your clients are protected from any viruses, hacker attempts, or hardware or software failures. Explain your backup policy to your customers in your terms of agreement and determine any potential problems or limitations ahead of time.
Set up a fee structure for additional services. This includes advanced support, site or data restoration, custom coding, custom configuration, web design, and more. By offering these additional services you can increase your income and continue to meet the needs of your customers.

Set up your web server. You can either build one, purchase one, or rent space on an existing web server. Next you will need to insure the server is connected to a high speed internet connection with a dedicated ip address. Then purchase a domain name and configure name servers such as ns1.yourdomain.com and ns2.yourdomain.com. This will allow those buying web server space from you to point their domains to your web server.

How to Create Your Own Game ServerIn Feburary 2016 15,
In Feburary 2016 15,
Go to the 'Run' option in your computer's 'Start' menu and input 'cmd' to enter the command prompt. Input 'ipconfig /all' in the prompt, and write down your subnet mask and default gateway DNS server as they appear. Write down the IP address also, but you only need the first three sets of numbers, which should be 192.168.1.
Return to the 'Start' menu and go to the 'Control Panel.' Then go to 'Network and Internet Connections,' 'Network Connections.' Right-click on the Internet connection you are using and select 'Properties.' Then select 'Internet Protocol,' 'Properties.' Check the box for 'Static IP address.'
Fill out all of the needed information in the next window with what you wrote down. For the IP address, type in those first three sets of numbers from your original address, all followed by periods, then enter a number of your choice after that (up to three digits). Click 'OK' when finished.
Open your Internet browser to confirm that your static IP address works.
Creating the Server
Download a game server tool such as HLDS Update Tool or HLSW and save it to your desktop. Run the tool to install its files and programs. It basically asks what part of the world you're in and what destination folder you want to use for the program (the default location is Program Files).
Return to the command prompt. Type in 'cd' followed by a space and the full address of the program's location (for example, 'C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer'). Press 'Enter.'
Type in the command update for your server tool, including the name for the game you want to create a server for. If you're creating a Counter Strike: Source server on HLDS Update Tool, type 'hldsupdatetool.exe -command update -game 'Counter-Strike Source' -dir .' (including the space and period at the end and the quotation marks in the middle).
Wait for the program to install your server after entering the last command. This can take half an hour to an hour, depending on your Internet speed.

Changing a DNSIn Feburary 2016 09,
In Feburary 2016 09,
Log into your domain registry account with your administrator login and password. Open the records for the domain that you wish to work with. You open these records via a prompt that is sometimes known as 'Account Manager' or 'Control Panel,' or you may alternately be prompted to click directly on the name of the domain itself.
Unlock your domain. There is an 'Unlock' icon or prompt on most control panels or account managers. Alternately, you will notice an icon or prompt for unlocking next to your domain name.
Open the DNS nameserver records for your domain name. Prompts for this function include 'Change DNS records,' 'Edit DNS records,' or a simple list of two or more nameservers beginning with the letters 'NS'.
Delete the present nameserver addresses. Replace these with at least 2 nameserver addresses that were provided to you by your hosting company. The mandatory nameserver addresses begin with 'NS1' and 'NS2' and can include the name of the hosting company, the address of your site, or any other address, followed by a suffix such as .com or .net.
Save your changes by clicking the 'Save' button or icon on your registry records manager. Relock your domain.
Wait 48 hours before verifying that your DNS changes have indeed propagated. If your website is not visible after 48 hours, contact your hosting company technical support service.

How to Create a Subscription Web SiteIn Feburary 2016 06,
In Feburary 2016 06,
Create a Web-hosting account. Find a Web host that allows installation of third-party software. Hosting of this variety can be found for about $4 per month as of August 2010 (see reference 2).
Install the content management system (CMS) to manage the website's content. The Web host likely offers two or three different packages as part of its hosting plan. Common open-source choices are Drupal, Joomla and Mambo (see reference 1). These packages are installed through a point-and-click interface from the hosting control panel. Installation and configuration takes less than five minutes to complete.
Customize the CMS installation. Set user permissions to allow registered and anonymous user access. Apply a design theme to set the look and feel of the website, and upload the custom graphics that will be used. All of these are accomplished from the CMS admin control panel. Each item has its own heading to configure that option. Click the heading, set the option and select 'save' when done to apply the new setting.
Create the website content. This includes the written and graphical content. The CMS includes a content editor as part of the program, so content can be created directly in the CMS. Another part of creating content in a CMS is assigning who is able to access that content. As pages are created, assign a permission level of 'registered' or 'anonymous.' Content set to 'registered' is available only to subscribers. The setting is a drop-down box located at the bottom of the content creation editor. Choose the access level, and then click 'save' to apply the permissions.
Set up a payment processing account. The payment processor will handle billing the customer through credit card or alternative means, then deposit that money into your account after subtracting the processing fees. Popular choices for small businesses are PayPal and Google, but other options also exist (see reference 3). Do your homework to find the best mix of processing fees and value-added services offered by the payment processor.
Test the website thoroughly before deployment. Nothing annoys paying customers like not being able to get what they paid for. Test every functional aspect of the website before going live. Once confirmed operational, the site is ready to be launched.

How to Fix an FTP ConnectionIn Feburary 2016 06,
In Feburary 2016 06,
Conduct a system scan for any computer viruses, spyware or malware. These problems will affect Internet performance and could interrupt an FTP connection. Consult the documentation included with the various computer scanning programs for directions on how to run a full system scan.
Verify that the user name and password used in the FTP connection options are correct. This information is available from the hosting company inside the account's control panel.
Verify that the connection type is correct. Some FTP clients will allow you to connect using an anonymous connection, normal connection or account connection. Start by choosing to use the normal connection. Check with your hosting provider if you are unsure of which connection type to choose and need additional assistance.
Contact your Internet service provider about the FTP connection problem to inquire whether it has any special settings or programs that are required for use.
Check the firewall settings on your computer to see whether the FTP client is on a list of blocked programs. Windows firewall settings are updated upon installation of the FTP client. However, other antivirus programs, such as Eset Nod 32, will require you to manually configure a list of sites that may access the Internet freely.
