CHOOSING THE RIGHT CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Saturday, March 1st, 2008

Building and maintaining a web site is a lot of work; one of the tools that can make it significantly easier is a dedicated content management system.

In a nutshell, a content management system is a set of server side utilities that let you manage your site’s cascading style sheets in an easy to use, centralized interface.

More sophisticated systems include the ability to upload content, allow visitor creation of contents, and even manage libraries of graphics, affiliate program links and more.

While there is a technical layer to using a manager, the essence of one is that you can buy something “off the shelf” to get your web site up and running rather than paying for a custom developer to write one for you.

BANDWIDTH…WHEN IS IT ENOUGH?

Saturday, March 1st, 2008

If you have a website, one of the most important things you need to know about is bandwidth. You don’t know what that is, you say? Okay, here we go.

Basically, bandwidth is the amount of data you can transfer at one time. When you have less bandwidth, your site takes longer to load regardless of what connection your visitors have.

With more visitors, each visitor is going to have to wait his or her turn if you don’t have enough bandwidth to accommodate everyone.

If you can lower the amount of data transfer you have on your end, you’ll have a site that more people can visit, because you won’t have to worry about exceeding the amount of bandwidth your hosting provider allows you.

CPANEL, AN EASY TO USE SOLUTION

Saturday, March 1st, 2008

What exactly is Cpanel anyway? It is short for “Control Panel”. It is a interface used by website owners to maintain and keep their websites up-to-date.

Cpanel was created to offer an easy to use solution for website owners to cut out the middle man, or in this case, the webmaster. Most hosting companies provide Cpanel as an default option with their hosting plans.

This is often the deciding factor for most people seeking a new hosting company. If a hosting company does not provide Cpanel web interfaces, then that are not with “the program” so to speak.
