I would like to create a website to a customer and provide domain/hosting with the package.
do I need to have a reseller account to do this?
I will charge him one time fee for the design which includes hosting.
do I need to tell him it's for one year after that you are on your own,...
How would I go about creating my own website for free forum hosting? You know, sites such as ProBoards and Forumer. A site where someone can fill in some information (name, URL, e-mail, etc.) and instantly have their own phpBB, IPB, or MyBB forum.
I could host it, but I don't understand how to make it so right when they click submit it creates them a forum. If someone could point me in the right direction or link me to a tutorial (which I doubt exists),
Lets say you're a customer looking for web hosting, but do have technical experience - you know, you develop your own websites, you've had experience in this sort of thing before.
What if you came across a provider who seemed to offer a good service, they're high quality, they can host your website on their brilliant setup etc... but they do not provide any e-mail accounts with your hosting?
We're developing our own shared hosting setup, our own control panel too. Regardless of the control panel though, we wouldn't feel comfortable hosting peoples e-mail. We have plenty of experience in every other aspect of general shared hosting - but not looking after e-mail accounts nor the associated software.
To be honest I don't think that many shared hosting providers truely handle e-mail properly, and that job should really be left to the professionals.
We could of course guide customers or potential customers on why we won't offer e-mail accounts (i.e. not wanting to offer something we know we can't provide to a high enough standard) and instruct them on how to setup e-mail with another provider (such as Google, who will do this for free with limitations).
The alternative to the above is that we mask in a third party to look after e-mail, i.e. resell someone elses e-mail services as part of our hosting packages. The third party would require API access to setup/remove accounts..
What do you think? Are we just acting stupid trying to provide web hosting without e-mail hosting included? I noticed a while back Dreamhost encouraged their customers to use an alternative e-mail provider!
I would like to create an SSL website for parts of my domain. I have a few VPS's one running cPanel, the others running just Webmin.
Now I have managed to install SSL as I can login to WHM/cPanel using the secure port fine. Also I have installed SSL on the Webmin VPS's as I followed www.webmin.com/ssl.html which tells you how.
However I would like to get sections of my website secure i.e secure.mydomain.com would be HTTPS, and the rest of the site just normal HTTP.
Some of websites like youtube and facebook are blocked in my country and we can't access them .in addition most of tunneling protocols like PPTP are blocked too . I want to create a website that tunnels between our network and this website like proxy or other ways. Scripts like phpProxy are not secure and many websites don't permit the visitors who come with this scripts. A very good sample for my idea is walww.com . This websites is like alternate for blocked addresses like facebook, but it's premium and require charging cash .
How can I create website like walww.com . I have my own VPS and Host for this issue. Is that possible to serve this blocked websites trough proxy by configuring apache settings?
I'm a customer of vps-hosting.ca from about 3 months and they are awesome!
I'm really amazed by the quality of their support,services and everything.
Their support is awesome and very user friendly and i got all my tickets solved within a very short time period
Most of all i have never seen a thing like downtime with them! They are just awesome!
I'm just giving them the credit which they deserve in return of providing such great services.
I highly recommend www.vps-hosting.ca .
It's imperative for you to know that web host features does not just stop with Unilimited disk space and unlimited bandwidth. There are other very salient features to which some people looking for a host provider have ignore, it is CUSTOMER SUPPORT.
You will not value the importance of a good customer support until you start having problems which you want resolved in the shortest possible time. For some host providers this is like telling them to do the impossible.
It is sad that some of the so-called reputable host don't even have a ticket system not to talk of an on-line chat system where you can ask questions and receive answers in real time.
So, for those of you that are new to hosting or want to change your host, then you had better look for a host that offers good customer support either by Chat, ticket system or forum.
Is there a good hosting reseller out there that handles customer support?
View 8 Replies View RelatedWhen I tried and failed to get any any repsonse out of them for 2 months at the end of last year, I mailed all the addresses I could find asking for my account to be closed and changed my DNS records to reflect a change in hosts. There were a few threads on this site that said the company had folded.
My renewal was due in January and when no invoice appear I assumed that everything was cancelled.
Till yesterday that is, when I recieved an invoice for renewal from gnax.net that is due today! The Burton Hosting billing site is also back up again.
I have just been on the Burton Hosting website and see there is a placeholder saying that my account is now owned by gnax.net. Surely they should have informed me of this change?
At the moment I am refusing to pay this money (Although mailing support@gnax.net does not work, despite it being the contact address in the invoice mail).
Have any other old Burton Hosting clients just been invoiced and given 1 day to pay?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a server setup and running shared hosting perfectly. I duplicated one of the plans and just set it to DEDICATED IP. This is for users that will be requiring SSL.
I then went into my panel settings and added in all the additional ip's. It even says in the panel listing "6 dedicated ip's available".
Yet, when I try to re-run the task for provisioning it constantly fails with the message:
Unable to create hosting. Ip address does not exist in client's pool ....

A few days back i had made a post asking about which would the best host for a dating website that me and a couple of friends were planning to start. Thanks alot to everyone for the answers.
However now we have decided to go with a gaming website, as the idea appeals to most of us.
The concept is to have a real time online game running on the server 24X7, people can join any time they want and leave any time they want, the game would still keep progressing. My main concerns with such a site are:
1. Bandwidth : As people will be online for a long time playing the game I am guessing we will need good amount of bandwidth
2. Server CPU : Will we end up eating lot of server CPU as the game engine will be running 24X7 on the server? What kind of implications does this have? I dont see any CPU specific details in the hosting plans i have seen so far.
Please advise on the above two. What kind of hosting should I be looking for? Hosting budget is 30$/month (max).
I have a friend who has a dedicated server right now that uses a good 4GB for all his website content. (not streaming media but just a whole bunch of scripts and etc. well thats what he tells me). And so anyways, his SQL database is about 1-2GB. And he is not too sure about his monthly traffic but its a social networking site with a good amount of users (so its actively used by many users). Would it be necessary for him to have a dedicated server or do you think he could cut costs with a shared hosting account at like host gator or some other shared hosting service like that? I guess my biggest concern is his current database. A lot of shared hosting companies (from what i saw) offer unlimited Mysql Tables do they have size limits? And does a bigger sql database drastically effect the performance of the overall server?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI am re-developing a website that launched 8 yeas ago. When the site launched it was developed in TCL and had an Oracle back end. The site's previous developer is still hosting the site on his server.
Long story short, we are re-developing the site on a new server at a different location. We'd like to re-launch on the old server (to help maintain Google search rankings), but we are developing in .Net and SQL. The old server is Linux. We want to maintain our ranking on Google since we are "Top Ten" on more than 20 great keyword phrases.
If we use a DNS forward from the old IP to the new one, are we going to loose rankings on Google? Obviously yes. But would it be beneficial to help the old developer buy a SQL server so the DNS forward is to a server 2 feet away as opposed to across the country? Does Google treat these equally?
