Getting Familiar with Web Hosting Terminologies

Individuals looking for a web host
provider are often unfamiliar on how
the field of web hosting works. Once
you've made a research on the various
offers of web hosting companies you
can easily find yourself lost in the
terminologies being used. Anyone who
is looking for a good web hosting plan
should be familiar at least with the
commonly used terms in web hosting,
this way it will be easier to
communicate and ask questions to
providers before you sign up for an
offer.
Below are some of the commonly used
terms in web hosting that you might
encounter:
Auto Responder
This feature is often offered along with
the customized email accounts in your
web host plan. An auto responder
allows your site to be readily available
and interactive 24/7. How does it
work? It automatically receives emails
and sends acknowledgement response.
Once a customer sends inquiry via the
contact form or email address provided
on the website, an auto responder will
immediately send them an email to
confirm the receipt. This can be easily
configured on the control panel and
users can also have their customized
message that will be sent to every
sender.
Backups
It is very important to choose a web
host company that provides regular
backups. Web hosting packages often
includes periodic backups. A backup of
files is necessary in case a website
encounters technical difficulties. Loss
of data can be prevented if providers
perform backups on a regular basis.
Bandwidth
A term that every customer should be
familiar with is bandwidth. It refers to
the amount of data that can be
transmitted at a given time. A common
marketing strategy for web host
providers is to use the term Unlimited
Bandwidth. Do not get easily fooled by
this term since every provider is only
allowed to have a certain amount of
bandwidth to offer to their clients. In
the event that your site exceeds its
bandwidth due to high traffic, it can
suffer downtime or might be
unavailable until issue is resolved. In
such cases, web host companies can
trick you in changing your web host
plan which can cost more money. Go
for a web host plan that offers an
expandable bandwidth which means it
expands as the demand on your site
increases.
Disk Space
This term goes hand in hand with
bandwidth. Think of disk space as the
amount of space that is assigned to
your website on the provider's server.
The amount of disk space also
determines the number of pages and
content of your site. If you plan to
incorporate a number of images, videos
and graphics on your site then you
must choose a plan that offers more
disk space.
Domain Name
Domain name is the distinct
identification of your website in the
worldwide web. The domain name
typically is the part on top of the menu
bar that reads:
www.mywebsitename.com. Choosing a
good domain name that is short and
easy to remember is a factor in the
success of a website.
There will be more terms to be
included in the future articles but for
now those are the common words that
you might see on web hosting plans
that are offered in the internet.

AWS Battles Rivals: Advertising Campaign

Amazon Web Services has defeated IBM in a competition for lucrative federal contracts, threatened Microsoft's core businesses, and reshaped corporate technology. In the last few months, the pioneering cloud-computing unit of the online retail giant has taken a page from the playbook of some of its more traditional competitors: It started advertising. Ads have been splashed across billboards and in airport terminals, television spots and web videos, featuring a whiteboard full of sketches of software architecture and appeals to invent something using Amazon's collection of rented computing services. The advertising campaign, which bears the "Build On" tagline, represents a milestone in AWS' march from technology upstart to one of the major players in business software, technologists and marketers say.
