Have A Website Of Your Own

Choosing the right web host is one of the most important decisions any webmaster can make. A bad host can be one ugly and costly experience. Choose wisely when deciding on who your provider will be. Consider all the prices and packages before deciding as choosing a web hosting package is the first vital step to showcase your own website. Your Internet service provider or ISP will provide a space on the World Wide Web for your domain for the whole world to see.

After purchasing the new account, you will receive access to a "WHM Accelerated" Control Panel. It is from here that you will be able to set up your sub accounts. I set up five different sub accounts. Each of these has their own cPanel log in, disk space quota, and bandwidth limit. I used the installation guides provided by HostGator to set up the various accounts. It was a bit of a pain to set up, but at the end I had cPanel accounts to give to each of my prospective webmasters.



This is another important aspect which determines how many files or pictures you can upload to your web site. Think of this as your own computer hard disk. Say your hard disk space is 160 gigabyte; it can only store 160 gigabyte worth of stuffs.

While most people use Hostgator as a cheap option for their small sites the company does also offer a dedicated server for people who need it. This is aimed mainly at businesses that get a lot of traffic to their website. They offer several different packages depending on how big your site is so you will be able to find the perfect server for your business.

Now, go down to the section called Software / Services. This section will be down toward the bottom of the page. In this section you will see a blue smiley get more info face with the title "Fantastico De Luxe". Click on the smiley face.

Finish setting up your account (which is very easy...just follow HostGator's instructions) and then check your email for your confirmation email from HostGator. In this confirmation email, you will be given two nameservers: NS1 and NS2.
