Open your FTP client.
Enter the IP address and login details into your FTP client. The method varies between FTP client, but all will offer some kind of site manager or quick connect feature. As an example, FileZilla Client offers a 'Quickconnect' bar at the top of the window, where you enter the IP address, username and password to easily connect to the server. You can also click 'Site Manager' and enter the details there so they are saved for future use.
Click the newly created site and select 'Connect' to connect to the FileZilla server. As an example, FileZilla requires that you only click the top 'Quickconnect' button once the IP and login details are entered. Alternatively, Hold the 'Ctrl' key and press 'S' to open the Site Manager. Click the site and then click 'Connect' to connect to the FileZilla Server.

How to Choose a Web Hosting ServiceIn Feburary 2016 28,
In Feburary 2016 28,
Make sure the host's server provides a sufficiently fast connection to the Internet. A T3 connection is optimal, but a T1 will work for most Web sites. A dial-up connection is usually much too slow.
Find out how many machines will be sharing the server with you. You don't want to be slowed down by traffic from other sites. Compare this number with other hosting services to give yourself negotiating room.
Investigate limits on bandwidth and hits. Make sure you won't be charged severely if a lot of traffic goes through your site. Look for reasonable flat monthly rates as opposed to rates based on use.
Find out what kind of customer support the host offers. Twenty-four hour support and speedy replies aren't unreasonable demands. Try to avoid paying for customer support.
Plan ahead when thinking about Web space. The amount of space you need depends on the nature of your site, but be sure to give your site room to grow.
Look for a company that offers virtual hosting. This will allow you to use your own domain name (www.yoursite.com) as your URL as opposed to a directory within the host's domain (www.host.com/yoursite). If you don't feel that you need your own domain name, save money and stick with the host's URL.
Make sure the host provides adequate CGI-bin access if you'll be using forms, and that the CGI bin can support your scripts. You should have your own CGI-bin directory with unlimited access.
Opt for Web-based administration if you're unfamiliar with Web programming. This will provide a Web-based interface for the maintenance of the site.
Look for a host that offers FTP and Telnet access to facilitate uploading files and editing CGI scripts.
Evaluate your e-mail needs. Some servers offer POP mailboxes, while others simply offer aliases that reroute mail to existing mailboxes. Some hosts put limits on the number of allowed aliases. Make sure you fully understand the host's e-mail services.

How to Start an Online Goody Bag BusinessIn Feburary 2016 28,
In Feburary 2016 28,
Determine the type of goody bag products you are going to sell. Try to specialize within the niche. For instance, you can sell eco-friendly goody bags made from all-natural materials or hand-made gifts and treats. You can specialize in food items, or international gift items. Keep your product line simple and categorize your products according to price.
Analyze domain name options. Think of a domain name that reflects your product. Avoid using your business registered name but instead use a fictitious or DBA (Doing Business As) name that reflects the goody bag product. Remember the domain name is the name that will be remembered by customers, and it is easier to remember a name that is associated with goody bags.
Locate a webhosting service. Most of the websites that sell domain names also sell web hosting packages. As this is an e-commerce site use a webhosting space that is midsized. Pay on a monthly or yearly basis. Most web hosting companies charge between $5 to $10 a month.
Look through different website templates and e-store templates websites like Website Templates, Stylish Template or Steve's Templates to find one that may be appropriate for your new online goody bag business. Be sure the template has shopping card options. Write the descriptions and content for the goody bag website. Hire a freelance web designer to help you load the website you chose to your domain name.
Promote the website. Create a Facebook and Twitter account and add members and fans. Tweet about your goody bag service and explain why these make nice gifts for friends or business associates. Write articles about your product explaining the benefits and the types of gifts that can be chosen to be a part of the goody bag. Post the information on your website or blog. Create listings on auction websites like eBay Etsy. Place a link to your website in your listing. Place advertisements on bulletin boards like Craigslist or the Bulletin Board. Add your website address to business cards, and letterhead. Leave your business card on restaurant or store bulletin boards so people can find your website. Send out newsletters, and promotionals to customers who do buy from you.
Hire a search engine optimization specialist to help you list your website on a first page in the search engines. Think of search terms people might use to find a website like yours. Write these terms or keywords down and give them to the SEO specialist. Have him help you get a first page listing under those terms or other keywords like gifts, gift bags, goody bags, and others that refer to your particular niche. This way people will find your online goody bag business when looking for those terms.

How to Upload ASP.Net Files to a ServerIn Feburary 2016 27,
In Feburary 2016 27,
Download and install an FTP client. FileZilla, SmartFTP or FTP Client are popular choices; however, any FTP client that you are comfortable with will suffice.
Compile your project before deploying it if you are working with the Web Application Project (WAP); this step is not necessary if you used the Web Site Project (WSP) to build your application (though it can be useful for finding compile-time errors before launching the site). Precompiling can be done through Visual Studio and the command line.
Open your FTP program. Individual FTP clients require slightly different methods to accomplish this. In FileZilla, select the “Site Manager” icon from the tool bar, then click the “New Site” button that appears and enter a name for your site. In SmartFTP, select “New Remote Browser” from the “File” menu. In FTP Client, select 'File,' then “New Connection.'
Enter the necessary information to connect your FTP client to your server. This information is usually provided by your web host provider and includes your host name (usually the part of your domain name after “www,” for example, xyz.com) or server, user name or log-in and password. Save the information. Click “Connect,” if necessary.
Click and drag the files you want to transfer from the computer side of the partition in your FTP client to the server side of the partition.
Test your site to ensure that all aspects of your application are working properly.

How to Make a File Downloadable From a WebsiteIn Feburary 2016 22,
In Feburary 2016 22,
Determine what type of file to create. You can convert a document to a PDF (portable document file.) For a collection of items, like images or audio files, use a compression tool so that users can download all the items in one small package.
Download a compression tool, like Winzip and a program to create PDF files, such as Adobe Distiller, from a download site or the manufacturer's website.
Hit the 'Ctrl' key and left-click each file that you want to add to the compressed folder. When all the files are selected, right-click and select 'Send to Compressed (Zipped) Folder.' A new folder with the extension '.zip' will appear.
Open your PDF creator software. Click 'File' and 'Open.' Select the file you want to convert to a PDF to open it. Click 'Save as PDF' from the menu. With Adobe Professional, you can right-click the document and select 'Convert to Adobe PDF.'
Upload the PDF and Zip files to your web server with your FTP software. You can place them right on the root folder or create a subfolder and put them there.
Edit the web page from which the users will download the files. Put the text 'link' at the place in the file where you want the link to the file to appear. 'Folder' is the name of the folder where the file resides, 'filename' is the name of the file and 'link' is the word to be used as the hyperlink in your web page.
Add text in your webpage that tells users what the file format of the downloadable file is. Provide instructions on how to open it.

How to Publish a Web Site in Asp.NetIn Feburary 2016 21,
In Feburary 2016 21,
Obtain from your web hosting company the necessary information to use FTP (File Transfer Protocol) to upload your files as well as the correct connection string(s) to access a database that is part of your website.
Upload your website files to your web host using FTP. Include the web pages, any image files or other web content files related to the new site.
Replicate any database schema and tables that are part of your website to the web host's database server. Do this either by developing the database on the web hosting company's database server if allowed or with the Database Publishing Wizard that is part of Visual Web Developer (installed with ASP.NET).
Update the web.config file that was uploaded as part of Step 1 so that the database connection string will point to the web host's database server rather than the location on your own PC. This may involve several connection strings if the website includes complications such as additional systems, membership pages, and roles (Admin, Full User or Limited Use, for example).
Test all connections and features of the hosted website for functionality. Correct any bugs or non-working parts on the local computer and then upload the corrected web pages.

Purchase a server hosting package from a reputable hosting company. When considering a hosting provider search for reviews of the company. Compare as many options as possible to get a feel for the range of services, prices and options available. Hosting can cost as low as $3.50 a month or several hundred dollars for a dedicated server. The most optimal type of service will depend on your technical expertise. Hostdime.com, ipage.com and godaddy.com all offer hosting services at competitive rates.
Purchase a site domain. If you do not already have domains for your dating websites, you must buy them. Most hosting providers will allow you to purchase domains along with hosting solutions. Domains typically cost less than $15 a year.
Add the new dating site domain to your hosting service, using the new host's Cpanel or hosting screen's 'Add New Domain' feature. Repeat for each domain that will be hosted.
Change the name server for the domain name. Copy the new server's 'Name Server' address and change the domain's 'Name Servers' to those of the new host. Repeat for additional dating sites.
Upload site content and data to each domain's hosting directory on the server. You will need an FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, to do this efficiently. An FTP client is a file transfer program that lets you upload and download data from the local computer and the server, and it is the primary method you will use to transfer your sites to the server. Most hosting packages provide a web-based FTP client in their hosting management sections, but free third party programs like CuteFTP, FileZilla and CoffeeCup FTP are suitable alternatives.
Wait for the name servers to update. This process should take less than 30 minutes. The dating sites will now be live on the new server.
