How to Choose the Right Webhosting Plan

Assess your website’s features and needs in choosing web hosting plan.

Consider the checklist for basic needs.

How much space do I need?

An average website with 50MB web space is decent enough to survive. You only need more if your website is very big and complicated like Youtube or Facebook. HTML pages are very small file size. It only bloats up for images, videos and if you want others to download. SayoWeb and other hosting companies offer GB webspace. You may think that the webspace is so huge you may not use all of it but in reality, a lot of website owners need more than 1 website. Our hosting plan allows you to host unlimited websites.

How much bandwith do I need?

Bandwith. Also known as web traffic is a maximum amount of information you can deliver in a month who surfs your website.1GB works for a normal website but if  you want your website to be popular and you have huge files like videos and MP3s, you need more. You should also consider how many visitors you have per day for calculating bandwith usage.

How many Email Accounts I need?

You definitely needs a personal, professional  email address that matches your web address. If you are small to medium sized company, you can use the economy hosting plan with 100 email accounts. But if you need more than 100 email accounts, you can get the deluxe or unlimited hosting plan.

How can I publish my Website?

You should consider the ability of the hosting plan to publish your website. You can perfect your website from your local computer then upload it. One way is to use FTP (File Transfer Protocol). Your hosting provider should have FTP feature. Others provide integration tools which allows popular web editors like Dreamweaver and Frontpage to upload pages without leaving your Web editing program.

How to Choose Perfect Domain Name?

What is Domain Name?
Domain Names are originally IP Address that points to a web server. And of course it is hard to type something like this: 67.64.45.457 on your web address so register a domain name, a translation of the IP address which in turns will look like this. http://www.sayoweb.com

Searching for a Name
Your first step should be starting to check the availability of the domain name. Even if you don’t have website yet, you can start registering for a domain name. http://www.sayoweb.com offers very low price domain names to choose. The earlier you register your domain name, the more advantage to you or your business. Old domain names registered for years have higher page rank in Google search. Getting the perfect domain is hard so once you found it’s availability, don’t loose the opportunity. Register it early, then create your website later.

STRATEGIES FOR EFFECTIVE DOMAIN NAME

1. Keep it simple, short and snappy. People nowadays are so busy. Getting people’s attention is hard so try to create a domain name that is easy to remember. It is hard to remember http://www.sayowebhostanddomainnames.com. So instead we use http://www.sayoweb.com. People who forgot to bookmarks the site and would like to come back to visit, need not to search on the net. The name is really easy to remember.

2. The domain name should reflect the purpose of your website. If you’re planning to use the domain name for a business website, make sure the domain name has significant meaning. Clients will remember easily your domain name. You can use a company name as domain name.

3. Include your keyword to your domain name. This strategy helps marketing and better SEO (search engine optimization). Example, a product of website, http://www.sayoweb.com is used as domain name.

4. Use .COM first. This is the most common TLD (top level domain). People are more familiar with .com instead of other domain name extensions like .net .org or .biz. If your chosen domain name is not available in .com, the next step is to use .net. If you’re representing an organization then use .org.

5. Do not use hyphen, underscore or any other special characters. It will be uncomfortable for your visitors. If http://www.yourdomain.com is already taken, do not use http://www.your-domain.com. You can add extra words like http://www.sayowebsite.com. Many people are having trouble typing hyphen or underscore on their keyboard.  Sometimes just by adding ‘s’ on domain name will do. For example,  http://www.yourdomains.com. But of course, it depends on what  your product is.

6. Register other domain name extensions. If you registered .com, try registering .net, .org, .info. People will think you are the exclusive owner of the domain name and business.You may not want to have http://www.yourdomain.com then other people  owns the http://www.yourdomain.net. Another great deal, if you register other suggested domain name extensions on http://www.sayoweb.com, you’ll get 32% discount prices for the 3 additional domain names.

Work from Home thru Odesk–100% sure

 I’ve bee n out on the net finding the right place to earn decently on home. A lot website out there making promises for a fortune that they will make you rich. Only to find out later on that they are the ones who are becoming rich because of some payment you have to pay. I tried hyip, email survey, online casino, pay per click, adsense,etc..but none of them pays me enough. I feel like I invested time so much from them but the return is so little and worst nothing at all.  Maybe some are earning really well but maybe not for me. 

I also tried freelance job boards.  I sign up at elance, getafreelancer, guru, limeexchange,etc… and tried bidding for a project I know I’m capable of.  What distracts me with these freelance job board is too much low bids which I cannot compete. For example at getafreelancer (now freelancer), I bid on logo for $20 then enable alert to my email if somebody will bid lower. To my surprise,everyday, there are new bid lower than mine and still more. Hey, how much this logo will worth now, $2? Another is their monthly fee of $12 just to get the badge of ‘gold member’. I haven’t yet got a job and yet I have to pay $12 monthly fee? This is stupid.

Until I  tried Odesk… What separates Odesk from other job marketplace is that they only get 10% from what you earn. They will earn only if you earn.  The 10% fee will be paid by buyer and not by you, the provider. You can retain your asking price. They provide two types of job: fixed or hourly. Hourly job is also what other freelance marketplace don’t have. Odesk has software that you can install on you computer. While doing the assignment, the software records your work including hours, number or mouseclicks and keyboard strokes, snapshots of your computer screen,etc..This way, your buyer will know exactly what’s happening on your computer. The number of hours you work is guaranteed paid. They will bill your buyer according to number of hours you worked. Type of jobs varied. Including web programming, web design, data entry, and so much more..

Creating Style Sheets (CSS) with HTML Editors

Some HTML Editors have handy features for creating style sheets. You won’t find this frill in the free Nvu editor, but it you will in Frontpage and Dreamweaver. That’s why these last two editors are expensive, they give handy features compare to those free editors.

To create a style sheet or simply CSS in Frontpage, choose File>New to show the “New page” task window on the right. Then click the “More page templates” link to show the Page Templates tab. You’ll see a list of predefined templates - choose one of these and you’ll start off with a pile of color coordinated rules you can apply to a Web page right away.

Dreamweaver is better than Frontpage. It also includes prebuilt style sheets. Choose File> New and then select Templates tab in the New Document dialog box. Not only you will see list of style sheet, but you’ll also see a small preview window that shows you a sample what the rules in the style sheet look alike.

Is my gmail account being hacked?

I just recently log on to my main gmail account. To my surprise, I can’t log on to after typing my password. I was nervous because it is the 3rd time I experience this. So I go to password recovery and reset my password. Good thing  I still remember my alternate email for password recovery. I enter new password then..voila! I now opened my account. 

I open again my another gmail account .And again, I can’t log on.  So I reset again. Type a new password with a combination of letters and numbers. But I can’t type any number.

Then just noticed that my numlock key is turned off.. Haha!

Now my confidence to google accounts is returned. My emails are not being hacked. It’s just my NUMLOCK key is off. So check your keyboards before suspecting anything.

3 Fastest Ways To Get Traffic To Any Website

Method #1 - Buy Traffic
Currently, the fastest way to get traffic to any website
called Google AdWords with $5 activation fee, their website will start to appear in 15 mins.

Advertisers only pay when visitors actually click through
from their ad on Google to their website or affiliate link.

Overture.com also sells traffic by the click.
You can also buy advertising on dozens of other pay-per-
click search engines.

Log on to www.payperclicksearchengines.com for a list of
over 600 choices ranked by market penetration.

A word to the wise on pay-per-click advertising: Watch your
costs and track and measure everything. Even though you can
get traffic for as little as a penny, you should track your
results by search engine and by individual keyword if you
want maximum success.

Method #2 - Borrow Traffic
“Endorsed Mailings” and “Reciprocal Linking” by other
people represent the two fastest ways to borrow someone
else’s traffic.

If they maintain a list of subscribers, convince them to
send an email out to their people telling them why they
should check out your site.

Imagine how much traffic you could get if someone with a
list of 10,000 loyal subscribers told their people to go
look at your website!

Method #3 Recycle Traffic
The most economical way to get traffic involves turning
one-time visitors into regular, repeat visitors that you
direct to multiple sites over time.

You do this by pulling website visitors into your sphere of
influence by enticing them to sign up for your newsletter,
autoresponder sequence, or “mini-course.”

Then you keep in contact with regular articles, special
reports, and recommendations enticing them to visit your
own and other people’s websites.

Ultimately, every website owner should orient all of their
marketing efforts towards this end of developing a stream
of recycled traffic, because it costs the least and creates
the best return on time and money invested.

The HTML Document

So far, you’ve been considering HTML snippets—portions of a complete HTML document.

To create a true HTML document, you need a minimum of three container tags:

<html>, <head>, and <body>. These three tags work together to describe the basic structure of your page.

• <html>
This tag wraps everything else in your Web page. It tells the browser that you’re using HTML.

• <head>
This tag designates the header portion of your document. The header can include some optional information about your Web page, including the title (which is displayed in your browser’s title bar), search keywords, and a style sheet.

• <body>
This tag holds the meat of your Web page, including the actual content you want to display to the world.

There’s only one right way to combine these tags. Here’s the correct arrangement:

<html>

<head> </head> <body> </body>

</html>

Every Web page uses this basic framework. The ellipsis (…) shows where you’ll want to insert additional information. The spaces in between the lines aren’t required; they’re just to help you see the tag structure more easily.

Almost all browsers let you bend these rules, and create a document that lacks these three basic tags.

To transform this barebones template into a real document, you just need to start adding some content. For example, let’s say you’re starting a basic info page. Here’s a very basic first go at it:

<html>

<head> </head>

<body>

I am Jason Morales. Born from the land of Cotabato <b>off the

hizzle</b>.

</body>

</html>

The only change is the addition of text in the <body> section. A single <b> tag is also used, just to dress it up a little. Before you go any further, you may want to try creating this sample file in your own text editor, and opening it in your favorite Web browser.

Telling the Browser to Ignore a Tag

What if I want the text "<b>" to appear on my web page?

Example, if you want to write the following bit of text :
The number 7 < 4 is wrong because 7 is bigger than 4.

When the browser reaches the less than (<) symbol, it becomes bewildered. It assume you’re starting a tag, and the text following "2 is clearly false..l" is part of a long tag name. Obviously this isn’t what you intented. The end result is unpredictable, but usually the text after the <character disappears into a nonexisting tag. To solve this problem, you need to replace angle brackets wit the corresponding HTML character entity. Character entities always begin with an ampersand (&) and end with a semicolon (;). The character entity for the less than symbol is &lt; because the lt stands for "less than". Similarly, &gt; is the character entity for the greater symbol.

Here’s the correct example:
The number 7 &lt; 4 is wrong, because 7 is bigger than 4.

In your text editor, this dosn’t look what you want. But when the browser interprets this document, it automatically changes the &lt; into a , character, without confusing it with a tag.

Understanding Resolution

A resolution of 800 x 600 means that the entire monitor shows a grid that’s 800 pixels wide and 600 pixels high. A pixel is the smallest unit of measurement on a computer monitor, and is otherwise known as "dot". A resolution of 800×600 gives 480,000 pixels. Whil 640 x 480 resolution gives 307,200.

A screen resolution isn’t tied to the size of monitor. A 17" monitor can have a higher resolution than a 19" monitor. However it makes sense for a larger monitors to use higher resolutions. That’s because on a small monitor, high resolution looks cramped. Monitors support awide range of resolutions, and you can choose the best compromise between showing lots of content (a higher resolution) and making sure that content isn’t too small (a lower resolution).

How Google’s Page Rank Works?

Google uses a rating system called PageRank to size up different web pages and determine how they rank.

Page Rank isn’t usedto find search results; instead it uses to order them. When you perform a search with Google, it pulls out all the sites that match your search keywords. Then it orders its results according to the PageRank of each page.

The basic idea behind the PageRank system is that the value of your Web site is determined by the community of other Web sites that link to it. There are few golden rules:

1. The more sites that you link, the better.

2. A link from a popular site (a site with a higher PageRank) is more valuable that a link from a less popular site.

3. The more links a site has, the less each links is worth. In other words, if someone links to your site and just a handful of other sites, that links is valuable. If someone links to your site and hundreds of other sites, the link’s value is diluted.

Although Google regularly fine tunes its secret PageRank receipe, Web gurus spend hours trying to deconstruct it. 

How Google Adsense Creates Targeted Ads

Everytime you serve up a Web page that contains Google ads, the Adsense script sends a message to the Google Web server asking for ads. This message includes your ad preference information and your unique client ID (something like pub-158753245895453; you can set it in the script code).

The first time Google receives this request, it realizes that it hasn’t examined your page yet, and it doesn’t know what types of ads are best suited for it. Instead, Google sends you a block of generic ads ( or sends back your alternate content, if you choose that feature). Google also adds your page to a list of pages it needs to visit. Sometime in the next couple of days, the Adsense robot heads over to your site and analyzes its content. From that point forwards, you’ll see ads that are based on the content of your page.

If 48 hours has pass and you still aren’t getting targeted ads, there could be a problem. One of the most mistakes is putting ads on pages that don’t have much text, in which case Google can’t figure out what your site is all about. (Remember, Google only considers a single page-the one with the ad unit-not any other pages in your site.) Another potential problem occurs if you put your ad in an inaccessible page. For example, Google bot can’t get to any page that’s not on the Internet - pages on your personal computer or local network. Also with pages that are password-protected. Some Web sites block off robots using exclusive rules. These also stop the Adsense bot cold.

How to Make your Text Readable

Text on the Web isn’t like text in print. Browser has limited patience. Here are some rules to make sure your making good use of text in your Web pages:

1. Split text into small sections. Web pages and the viewers are responsible for clicking. They don’t want too long paragraphs.

2. Create short pages. If a page is longer than two screenfuls, split it in two pages. It gives you easier to read and adds more web pages.

3. Divide content into several pages. the next step is to link these pages together. It gives readers choices what they want to read.

4. Put your most important information in the first screenful. This technique is called designing above the fold. It makes sure that there’s something eye-catching or interesting that the reader can look without scrolling.

5. Don’t over use formatting until you understand style sheets. If you do, you’ll leave a big mess that you only need to clean up later on.

Spyware

A spyware program is an unwanted plug-in that attaches itself to your browser or operating system without your permission. It then harasses you with advertisements, or record your surfing habits and send them to a Big-brother-like marketing company. Spyware thrives like a weed, particularly on the Windows operating system. It is notoriously difficult to remove, even you weren’t using your browser, you should have your computer checked out. The best remedy is a spyware removal tool that scans delinquent programs and removes them, much like a virus scanner.

Can I Run a Web Server?

In theory, you can. But in practice, it’s not easy. (1) The first you should consider is that you need to have a reliable computer that runs 24 hours a day. That computer also needs to run special web hosting software that’s able to serve up Web pages when browsers request them.

(2) Second, your computer needs a ‘fixed IP address’. The IP address is a numeric address that identifies your computer on the Web.

Most ISPs (Internet Sevice Providers) assign new IP addresses, which means most people can’t use their computers to host a permanent Web site.

You can contact your ISP provider to ask them for a fixed IP address service. The typical cost is usually higher than ordinary web access.

The Difference Between <b> and <B> tag

Most Common People asks: "Should I use uppercase or lowercase tags?"

HTML isn’t case sensitive. But most Web designers use only lowercase for these reasons:

1) Newer Web standards like XHTML aren’t as lenient. They’ll force you to use lower tags.
2.) Web authoring tools like Frontpage and Dreamweaver always use lowercase tags.

Other Web fans still use uppercase tags because it stands out in the sea of HTML. But for playing safe, lowercase tags is most suitable.

Google Earth

Recently been addicted with this Google Earth map. It allows to navigate and map the world using google’s software Google earth. It was like actual flying from country to country. it allows too to navigate even the sky and stars. A very useful for architects, engineers and every one else who are interested in mapping. Got excited seeing the top of my roof and my neighbor’s roof. Allows me to analyze how long should I travel from here to there.
