Which Web Hosting Option is Right For You?

There are lots of options for web
hosting out there: free, shared,
dedicated, etc. All these options do
essentially the same thing: host your website so it can be viewed by people on the world wide web. The differences are in costs, benefits, and how each is set up. Here are further explanations for each option:
Free Web Hosting
As the name suggest, this web hosting option is free. This option is ideal for someone who is just getting started in creating and running websites or for someone who wants to create a website
just for friends or family. But if you are at all serious about the success of your website, avoid free web hosting. As you can probably guess, free web hosting lacks many features and most of the time, you will not be able to use your own domain. If you can find a web
hosting provider that allows you to
have your own domain and provides you with important features, it's very likely that there is a catch (low bandwidth or low disk space).

Shared Hosting
Shared hosting is the most common
type of hosting and is probably the best option for you. As you can guess by the name, Shared hosting is when you share your web hosting space with other customers. Shared hosting providers typically offer unlimited bandwidth and disk space, so you never have to worry about your site going down all of a sudden or not being able to expand your website's content. Most shared hosting providers also have a 99.9% uptime guarantee so you don't have to worry about experiencing any length periods of downtime. The downside to having your own server is that even if someone else's site on the same server as yours starts getting a lot
of traffic, it could slow down your site.

Dedicated Hosting
Dedicated hosting is when a single
server is used to host only your
website. This option is primarily
intended for high traffic websites and typically costs over $100 per month.
You would need to have an IT team to manage and maintain the server unless if you opt for the more expensive managed dedicated hosting, where the hosting provider manages and maintains the server for you.
Which is the Best Option For You?
That depends – what kind of site do
you have? Chances are, if you're just starting out, you do not have a high-traffic website and don't need dedicated hosting so we can easily rule out that option. If you have a personal blog or website intended to be seen only by your friends or family, free web hosting is your best bet. If you are starting a website intended to be seen by
everyone, shared hosting is your best option. Once your site starts receiving a lot of traffic and outgrows the shared hosting web space, you can think about switching to dedicated hosting.

Dangerous sex Positions For Men

The most common cause of pénile injury is found among the variety of potentially dangerous positions used for séxual intercourse. The most popular is the ‘woman-on-top’. This type of position can result in an impact between the pénis against the female pelvis or perineum that can easily traumatize the pénile cylinders. A pénis becomes érect when the lining of the cylinder within it is engorged with blood.  A pénis fracture can occur when there is trauma to the eréct pénis, resulting in a rupture of the cylinder lining. This very painful injury is often accompanied by an abrupt, distressing cracking noise that is immediately followed by dark bruising of the pénis due to blood escaping the cylinder. In ten to 30% of pénis fractures, the urethra is damaged and blood may be visible at the urinary opening. Given these signs, an injury should be relatively simple to diagnose, right? You would be surprised, even with the unsettling sounds of a fracture occurring, many men...

Google Authenticator, a formidable layer of protection to your account.

​Google Authenticator is a free security app that can protect your accounts against password theft. It's easy to set up and can be used in a process called two-factor authentication (2FA) offered on popular social media services like Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.  The app ( iOS / Android ) generates a random code used to verify your identity when you're logging into various services. The code can technically be sent to your phone via text message every time— but the Google Authenticator app provides an extra level of security.  SMS-based 2FA has a  known security flaw , and any devoted hacker can attempt to  socially engineer  an attack against your phone company. The Google Authenticator app eliminates the possibility of an SMS-based attack  using algorithms  to generate the codes on your phone. Here's how to set it up: 1. Download Google Authenticator from either the Apple App Store or the Android Google Play store. It's free. 2. Nex...

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. For many years, AWS didn't advertise, partly because it didn't have to. The service held a wide lead over the competition, and word-of-mouth was enough to...
