For What Is 'Microsoft SQL Server' Used?In Feburary 2016 29,
In Feburary 2016 29,
SQL Server uses the client-server model of data management. With client-server, a program called the client requests data from a server program, usually on another computer. The server evaluates the request and passes data back to the client. This improves security since the client must provide the correct password information for the server to release the data. It also helps speed data access since the server computer does all the hard work of data management; the client receives the results. An organization using SQL Server usually has several dedicated computers for it.
Relational Database
You can organize data in many different ways. You can type it in a simple file, organize it in a spreadsheet or divide .it into distinct parts. If you run a big website and have millions of records to manage, efficiency is important. Microsoft SQL Server uses a data organization method called a relational database. A database designer looks at the organization's information and creates structures called tables to store it. By linking the tables in different combinations, she can, for example, see how many customers she has by state, what they purchased and how often they visit the website.
SQL Language
SQL Server uses the SQL language. Using SQL, a programmer can create tables, add, remove or update data, and sort and retrieve it rapidly. Different software companies, such as Oracle and MySQL, also use the SQL language, allowing programmers to use the same skills for managing data stored on different systems.
Tools
The core of SQL Server is the program that processes data requests from client programs. In addition, it has programs to build databases, import and export data and monitor the database's performance. While a programmer can do many of these tasks from the SQL language, the extra software tools make the job easier to learn and perform.
Security and Integrity
If you're responsible for a company's data, you need to manage who can and cannot access it. With SQL Server, you can assign many different levels of security, letting some users see or modify data and locking other users out. It also lets a programmer build rules into the database to ensure the data has integrity. For example, the customer's address can have a rule that the state must come from a list of state abbreviations. If a user tries entering a state of 'ZX,' SQL Server will reject it.

How to Embed a Podcast in WordPressIn Feburary 2016 28,
In Feburary 2016 28,
Upload your podcast file to your Web server using an FTP client. This is necessary because on most blogs, you cannot upload large files through the dashboard. Put the podcast file in the main directory on your WordPress site; do not upload it to any of the sub-directories.
Log in to the WordPress dashboard from the 'wp-admin' directory of your website. Navigate to 'Posts' and click 'Add New.' Fill out the form with a title and description of the podcast.
Click the 'HTML' tab on the WordPress editor box. Copy and paste the following code into your post in the section where you want the audio player to appear:
This code is for the free Google Reader MP3 player. It will work on any Web page as long as your visitors' browsers are Flash-enabled. Most players require Flash, so this is a standard requirement.
Change 'MP3_FILE_URL' in the example code above to point to the URL of your podcast file. Additionally, change the 'width' value to adjust the width of the player, if you wish. You can change the height, too, but it looks best at the default setting of '27.'
Publish the post to your WordPress blog. The podcast will be embedded in your post.

List of Free FTP ServersIn Feburary 2016 27,
In Feburary 2016 27,
Webfreehosting provides an all-encompassing, free package that includes email accounts, web hosting and an FTP service. Account holders get 300MB of storage space, can transfer up to 10GB of files per month, and receive an impressive collection of other options related to website hosting.
DriveHQ
DriveHQ offers online storage and FTP access with a familiar look and feel. Windows users are comfortable with the naming convention of the folders such as 'My Documents,' 'My Music' and 'My Pictures.' While DriveHQ offers a paid subscription, they do include two levels of free service. The first level is called the 'Free Account.' These users are mainly restricted to uploading and downloading files. The 'True Account' is the second level and is attained when the member's information can be verified. The main difference between the two is that 'Free Account' members cannot publish files, folders or a website (publishing shares them out to anyone on the Internet). Both account types have an upload file size limit of 50MB and the ability to transfer files by dragging them from the computer onto the DriveHQ website to transfer them. A traditional FTP access using third-party software is available, although they do recommend using their own software designed for use with their service.
WebNG
WebNG is a feature-rich, one-stop-shop for free web hosting. The features include direct FTP access as well as web-based FTP access (for when an FTP client or program is not available), 350MB of storage space, no ads, photo albums and support, and 323MB of daily bandwidth usage. When transferring files, there is a 25MB file size limit. WebNG also offers an incentive package that increases your usable bandwidth when you refer others to the website.

In Feburary 2016 22,
Determine a suitable name for your business. Select a simple, easy-to-remember and catchy name ending in '.com'--as you will be offering commercial services. The name you choose for the domain should reflect the nature of your business. For instance, if you are selling gardening tools on the Internet, your website's name should clearly indicate that it sells gardening equipment. However, you will have to be flexible while choosing the name because you will come across competitors with similar names. For this reason, you have to aim for a name that clearly indicates your services, while still managing to have it be different and innovative.
Look for places to register a domain name for your business. You can find some domain registering websites in Resources below.
Check on the domain registering website if your desired domain name is available. If the one you had in mind isn't available, try looking for anything similar. Shopping for an Internet domain is tricky. Different websites have different plans and prices so you will have to look around for best rates.
Find a hosting website for your business. Generally, the website that sells domain name offers hosting services as well, but you should consider looking at other hosting plans. According to webhostingchoice.com, the 10 best web hosting choices are Host Monster, Just Host, Web Hosting Pad, i Page, Blue Host, In Motion Hosting, Host Clear, Host Gator, Go Daddy and Yahoo.

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.

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 Become a Web Hosting ResellerIn Feburary 2016 10,
In Feburary 2016 10,
Shop around for the best prices. Many well known web hosting companies offer wholesale space to resellers.
Choose a web hosting package. If it is a 'whole' package, you will need to decide how you want to split it up. (A 'whole' package comes in one big block of space, instead of several pre-split mini packages.) Once your package, set your prices.
Design your own website to sell the packages. You want people to know that you are a reliable web hosting seller and a professional looking website will send that message. If you can't design the site yourself, hire a professional designer.
Market your website anywhere you can. Forum signatures and link exchanges are great and affordable places to begin. This is an important step because there is a lot of competition in web hosting reselling and ads are the only way to bring in new customers. You can also use search engine optimization (SEO) techniques, so that your website will rank higher with major search engines.
Put 25 percent of your profit back into your business to buy more space, advertise and update your website.

How to Host an Email NewsletterIn Feburary 2016 08,
In Feburary 2016 08,
Create a unique HTML page for each article you wish to include in your newsletter. HTML, which stands for 'Hypertext Markup Language,' allows you to construct webpages and emails using a library of HTML commands. Use an HTML editor, such as FirstPage or Adobe Dreamweaver, for help creating HTML files. Code your HTML from scratch using a simple text editor like NotePad or WordPad, if possible. To 'code' an HTML page means to use Hypertext Markup Language to arrange the text and graphics in the manner in which you want them to appear on your page. Type or paste the text of your newsletter article, including the paragraph tags, font styles and other HTML code, into the HTML file you created using your HTML or text editor. Put a story title and the author's name for each item in the newsletter on a separate HTML page of the newsletter.
Upload the HTML web pages you created for your newsletter articles to your web server---this 'hosts' the files on your website. If you have a simple and easily accessible content management system, use it copy and paste the HTML you created. For example, third-party systems like Liferay and SiteRefresh allow users to log into a web application, create or update webpages and instantly push the updated content to their websites. Otherwise, upload your HTML files directly to your web server using File Transfer Protocol (FTP) access or whatever other means you use to add files to your website. Make note of the URL, including the 'http,' where you stored your files.
Create an HTML page for your email newsletter itself. Include a table of contents, brief descriptions of each article and links to read more. Associate the links in your email newsletter with the URLs for the articles you hosted on your web server. To create a link, type this HTML code into your email and update it to include your URL and link name:your link nameComply with the requirements of the CAN-SPAM (Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing) Act by including your mailing address and an opt-out link in your email newsletter. The Federal Trade Commission created the CAN-SPAM Act in 2003 to combat consumer spam, so all email senders must comply with its requirements as a matter of federal law.
Combine your HTML email newsletter with a plain-text version of the same message and send it in MIME format to your subscribers. MIME stands for Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME). Email marketers should send messages in MIME format because not all subscribers can receive HTML emails, and some spam blockers award higher spam scores to HTML messages that do not include a plain-text version.Use a third-party service to bundle and send the HTML and text versions of your newsletter to subscribers, or consult your web developer for assistance creating a script on your web server to send MIME messages. A script is a program that performs an intended action; in this case, the script would send your HTML and text messages to your list of subscribers. Test your message before you send it to your subscribers to ensure that the links to your hosted articles function properly.

How to Set Up an Ebook Sales WebsiteIn Feburary 2016 06,
In Feburary 2016 06,
Write a thorough description of your ebook. Tell your potential customers how your book will benefit them.
Provide a page where potential customers can contact you and learn more about you. Provide your email address, name and a short paragraph about your background, family, education or whatever is relevant to the type of ebook you’re selling.
Upload your ebook to your website with an FTP program, such as CuteFTP or WS_FTP.
Set up a thank you page that your customers will be directed to after they have purchased your ebook. The thank you page should contain a note thanking the customer for his purchase and a clickable link to the page where your ebook is located so that he can download it.
Set up a way for customers to pay for their purchases. Try a third-party company such as iBill.com, OrderButton.com or ClickBank.com to accept credit card payments. Set up a link or button that takes customers to your order page and place it at the top and bottom of every page on your site.
Protect your ebook with a password. Many web hosting companies provide a place to set up a password within the control panel.

DigiBuy creates unique URLs for customers to download your ebook that expire within one or two days.
