How to Build an Online Internet DirectoryIn Feburary 2016 27,
In Feburary 2016 27,
Purchase a domain name and monthly web hosting subscription. Domain names can be purchased at the same place where you buy web hosting services such as GoDaddy.com, Register.com or LiquidWeb.com. Make the domain name an easy one to remember as this will help your Internet directory's 'brand' and it also helps repeat visitors recall the site quickly. For Internet directories, the most basic web hosting subscription can be purchased; you can always upgrade your hosting account once your directory is established and has daily traffic.
Choose an Internet directory script. These scripts are typically automatic-type programs that include the essential tools you need for an Internet directory website. Both free and paid Internet directory scripts exist; consider your skills and web design knowledge when choosing one. An example of a paid script includes eSyndiCat; free ones include PHP Link Directory and In-Portal, included in the Resources section. Free scripts may have little support from authors/creators, but you can perform modifications by yourself or pay someone to do them. Paid directory scripts usually have a support team available to help you get set up and may have extra features in the script. Look for the integration of advertisements and featured directory listings if your plan is to own a paid Internet directory; other important characteristics of an Internet directory script include comprehensive administrative panels, the ability to accept directory listings automatically or with pre-approval and plenty of categories and listings included with the script.
Upload the Internet directory script to your website. Follow the instructions in the help guides of the directory script. Get help from your web host's customer service if you need additional assistance. Many Internet directory scripts require the use of a MySQL database which is set up in the administrative control panel of your web hosting management.
Log in to your Internet directory script's administrative panel and make any modifications that are necessary. Upload a logo and/or header image for your website and change any design elements that are able to be changed. You can hire a freelance web developer (iFreelance.com and Guru.com are two sources of freelancers) to make these changes for you if you lack the skills or knowledge.
Add categories to your Internet directory website. The administrative or control panel for your directory contains options for adding, deleting, and changing categories and listings. The categories you add are dependent on the type of online Internet directory you want to create. Add local business information if you're creating a directory for a city or local area. A few possible categories include restaurants, shopping centers, retail and department stores, and Internet forums just to name a few.
Test your online Internet directory website from the user side. Make sure that your categories and listings are in the right places and that all user features included with your script work correctly.

How Do I Create a Hyperlink to a Zipped File?In Feburary 2016 19,
In Feburary 2016 19,
Upload the zipped file to your web server, into whatever directory or folder you'd like it to be. You can upload the file using your website hosting control panel or any basic FTP client software.
Save a copy of your web page to your hard drive--save just the page on which you want to create the link. You can save the file using your web browser, the web hosting control panel, or by downloading it with your FTP software.
Open your web page HTML file with a basic text editor such as Windows Notepad, NoteTab or Notepad++.
Select the location in your web page that you'd like to create the hyperlink. Remember that you are viewing the raw HTML code when it's open in a text editor, so you'll need to be sure you place your new hyperlink anywhere after the opening body tag (
), but before the closing body tag (
).
Craft your hyperlink using the full HTML path to your zipped file, like this:Zipped' rel='nofollow' target='_blank'>http://www.yourwebsite.com/folder/zipped.zip">Zipped File'yourwebsite.com' will of course by your own website domain name and extension.
'folder' will be the folder name into which you placed the zip file.
'zipped.zip' will be the actual name of the zipped file for which you are creating the hyperlink.
The words 'Zipped File' will be the words that show as linked on your web page, and they can be whatever you'd like. 'Click here to download this zipped file' for example, would be a nice descriptive phrase that tells people exactly what to do.
Save the changes to your web page file, then reload it onto your web server to make the changes live on your site.

Confirm and finalize your participants. Nothing can throw a tournament into chaos quite like participants who either are late or fail to arrive. Ensure everyone who says they will take part in your tournament actually arrives.
Set up your bracket. If there are many players, you can set the bracket placement by writing numbers on sheets of paper and having participants taking them out of a hat. Refer to the link for a sample bracket layout.If you have an odd number of players, you can have a play-in game to see who will advance into your tournament.
Determine your rules. If you are playing a single-elimination tournament, where the player is eliminated after one loss, say so. If it is a double-elimination tournament, have a second 'loser' bracket set up for the losers to battle it out for third.
Prepare each game. Before the participants ever pick up a controller, set each game's difficulty, quarter times and other in-game options. Do this before each game so that the playing field is even.

HTTP Vs. FTP File TransferIn Feburary 2016 10,
In Feburary 2016 10,
In order to update a file to a website, all the user needs is a modern internet browser. However, on the server side of the website, a site programmer has to implement a system that can handle a file upload. The programmer has several options to perform this, from a simple HTML upload to more advanced forms with languages such as PHP and ASP, for use in a forum or a blog. With downloading, all a user has to do is click on a link.
Uploading via FTP
FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, predates HTTP by quite some time. However, FTP is used primarily by webmasters and web developers who need to upload files directly to their servers. In order to use an FTP server, you will need an FTP client to connect to it. Free FTP programs include FileZilla and CoreFTP, and can be found in the resources section below.
Advantages and Disadvantages of HTTP
HTTP uploads provide an incredibly simple method of uploading files to a server, with minimal knowledge about file transfers. Downloading a file is also incredibly easy too. However, the disadvantages lie in HTTP's lack of power when it comes to file uploading. Also, a programmer needs to have the knowledge required to create the form in HTML, in order to upload the file in question. This especially is true if the file is for a social network similar to Myspace or Facebook that they're creating.
Advantages and Disadvantages of FTP
Using a FTP server offers advantages of its own. For one, a user can use a program to perform a mass upload to a server, not having to worry about repeatedly having to rebrowse for files and re-upload them using one form. Downloads can also be done en masse as well. Unfortunately, an FTP server still requires an FTP client to use, and the use of one would be particularly cumbersome to those who just wanted to upload a picture or two.
Differences
Ultimately, FTP and HTTP file transfers have completely different purposes. FTP's file transfer purpose is more or less for website maintenance and batch uploads, while HTTP is for client-end work and for end users to upload things such as movies, pictures and other files to the server. Often times, a programmer will use FTP to upload the files that allow an end-user to upload files via HTML/HTTP as well.

The programmer has several options to perform this, from a simple HTML upload to more advanced forms with languages such as PHP and ASP, for use in a forum or a blog. With downloading, all a user has to do is click on a link.
Uploading via FTP
FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, predates HTTP by quite some time. However, FTP is used primarily by webmasters and web developers who need to upload files directly to their servers. In order to use an FTP server, you will need an FTP client to connect to it. Free FTP programs include FileZilla and CoreFTP, and can be found in the resources section below.
Advantages and Disadvantages of HTTP
HTTP uploads provide an incredibly simple method of uploading files to a server, with minimal knowledge about file transfers. Downloading a file is also incredibly easy too. However, the disadvantages lie in HTTP's lack of power when it comes to file uploading. Also, a programmer needs to have the knowledge required to create the form in HTML, in order to upload the file in question. This especially is true if the file is for a social network similar to Myspace or Facebook that they're creating.
Advantages and Disadvantages of FTP
Using a FTP server offers advantages of its own. For one, a user can use a program to perform a mass upload to a server, not having to worry about repeatedly having to rebrowse for files and re-upload them using one form. Downloads can also be done en masse as well. Unfortunately, an FTP server still requires an FTP client to use, and the use of one would be particularly cumbersome to those who just wanted to upload a picture or two.
Differences
Ultimately, FTP and HTTP file transfers have completely different purposes. FTP's file transfer purpose is more or less for website maintenance and batch uploads, while HTTP is for client-end work and for end users to upload things such as movies, pictures and other files to the server. Often times, a programmer will use FTP to upload the files that allow an end-user to upload files via HTML/HTTP as well.
