Sign up for Web hosting with the host of your choice. Examples of popular paid hosts include Hostgator, HostMonster, and GoDaddy. There are also free Web hosts such as Webs or Wordpress.
Install a free content management system such as Wordpress or Joomla. Content management systems act as platforms for your website---you can manage your website's content and appearance with ease using these systems. These systems eliminate the hassle of manually editing and configuring each of your web pages, which is why millions of websites use them. Your Web host has a tool that automatically installs these systems for you. If you are having trouble finding it, contact customer support. (Keep in mind that Wordpress Web hosting comes pre-installed with the Wordpress content management system.) Installation is very straightforward and should take no more than a minute or two---just follow the instructions.
Navigate to your content management system admin panel login page. The link for this page is provided for you after installation. Log in with the credentials you provided at installation.
Add content to your website using your CMS. You have the option of creating new Web pages, publishing posts, and more. Wordpress has a text/HTML (HyperText Markup Language) editor built into it. You may wish to publish an application for aspiring members to fill out, general clan information, and upcoming events. Ultimately, you are the webmaster---it is up to you to decide what to publish on your site.
Personalize your website. Wordpress and Joomla both have highly customizable widgets that you can drag and drop into various parts of the Web page. They also have visual themes that instantly change the appearance of your entire website. In addition, they have plug-ins that allow you to add additional functions to your website----for example, the 'Akismet' plug-in filters out spam comments from appearing on your website.

How to Create a Folder on an FTP SiteIn Feburary 2016 12,
In Feburary 2016 12,
Open Internet Explorer. Enter the URL of the FTP site you want to access just like you would for any site you wanted to go to. But instead of starting the URL with 'http,' start it with 'ftp.' This will take you to the main folder for that site.
Click on 'Page' at the top on the right side in your tool bar. See the image here if you have trouble locating it. Select 'Open FTP site in Windows Explorer.' It will open a window in Windows Explorer. It should be a login window. If it opens a window that is empty or only contains a folder called 'pub,' right-click in the blank area and select 'Login as...' and it will open the login window.
Enter your FTP user account login information in the login window and click 'Log on.' The window should now display all the folders and files in the main folder of the FTP site you have accessed.
Right-click within the blank white area (not on a file or folder) and hover over 'New' in the pop-up. Select 'Folder' from the fly-out.
Title your folder whatever you deem necessary or have been instructed to title it. Your job is now complete and you are ready to add files to your folder.

How to Configure Stunnel WindowsIn Feburary 2016 02,
In Feburary 2016 02,
Install Stunnel. Download the Windows binary file from Stunnel.org. Double-click on the executable 'stunnel-4.34-installer.exe' and accept the default values for installing Stunnel on your computer.
Copy a valid SSL public certificate to the directory 'C:\Program Files (x86)\stunnel.' To make things more trouble-free, combine the public key and private key certificates into one .PEM file.
Modify the Stunnel configuration file. Open the file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\stunnel\stunnel.conf' using a text editor such as Notepad. Modify the file to include the line 'cert = C:\Program Files (x86)\stunnel\
,' where
is the name of your certificate file. Modify the file to specify both the incoming (secure) port and the outgoing (insecure) ports. Label this section in brackets for clarity's sake. An example configuration looks like this:[https]accept = 443connect = 8080This configuration tells Stunnel to accept incoming connections on port 443 secured using the public key SSL certificate and redirect those connections to port 8080 on the local server without security.(See reference 1.)
Configure Stunnel to start automatically. Navigate to the Start menu, 'stunnel' folder and click on 'Service Install.' Stunnel will configure a Windows service called 'stunnel' to start automatically when the computer boots.
