I have a few computers sitting around that do little more than serve music. I create several web sites a month that will only receive a few hits a day. Is it relatively simple and cost effective to create a web hosting server that uses PHP? If so, can you point me to a link that would show me how to set it up.
How hard is it to create a web server?
It is actually pretty easy. As long as you have an old PC lying around (or you can even use your main PC, for low-bandwidth sites), check out WAMP -- http://www.wampserver.com/ -- it stands for Windows Apache MySQL PHP. It comes with Apache web server, MySQL database, and PHP. If you prefer not to use Windows, LAMP (Linux, MySQL, PHP) and MAMP (Mac, MySQL, PHP) are also available. I use WAMP, and it%26#039;s pretty easy, and quick to set up. Good luck!
How hard is it to create a web server?
It%26#039;s simple and very cheap. Your server wouldn%26#039;t need very much to run (an old PC sitting in the closet would work) and once it%26#039;s up, it%26#039;s very minimal to maintain. It would definitely save you money if you plan on running a website(s) for years.
Basically, you would need what an actual webhost would have. A database (MySQL or similar), file storage, active directory (if you plan on implementing users for forums, etc) and possibly a fast internet connection. I run mine myself and it saves me so much money by not paying a webhost every month.

What is good web host/registar for a social network?
i am trying to start a social network online but i have only seen sites wanting 8k and more to build your site, there has to be a site where you can use their software and hosting capabilites for a small fee, plz help
What is good web host/registar for a social network?
You%26#039;ll want a host with a lot of bandwidth and disk space.
I%26#039;d suggest SLHost, I%26#039;ve been using them for years for some community-based sites with the shared Level 2 package. Check out the shared packages here: http://slhost.com/shared_solutions.html
Once you start getting a lot of traffic on your site and over-running your bandwidth you can just buy more from them or upgrade your package. It%26#039;s pretty painless and cheap.
As far as a registar, use whatever is cheapest. GoDaddy.com with code SLASH will save you 10%, code SLASH3 will get you a .com domain for $6.95.

I need a web host that will handle PHP and MySql fast and reliably?
I am building a very media rich site for a local church. There are several databases and dozens of PHP scripts that will be running.
I have seen many posts about slow PHP and MySql processing and want to avoid any problems.
Currently the church pays $20 for hosting (with very little features). I would like to keep the price close to that, but will be willing to bump up to $50 if it means that the PHP and MySQL execute fast and reliably.
Any Suggestions?

My church website is over at HostGator and we%26#039;ve been quite happy with the site responsiveness... and we%26#039;re using a full-featured memory-hungry content PHP/MySQL based content management system (Drupal).

I would like to recommend My Webbie Hosting%26#039;s Corporate and Enterprise plans. These plans include 50 and Unlimited MySQL databases, respectively, and 30+ preinstalled PHP scripts. They guarantee 30-day money back in case you become dissatisfied with their service.
However, Corporate Plan costs $8.95/month while Enterprise Plan costs $12.95/month.

Go with HostGator.
Extremely reliable and fast.
Reply:I got a list at below resources. very affordable, less complain and among the top web hosting in the world. Problem with slow loading usually happen to reseller and small hosting company. they don%26#039;t have the capacity to handle a lot of load but they have to do that because if they don%26#039;t offer their package like that no one would host with them. but when a lot of people hosting with them guess what happen.

Do I have to renew my domain name with direct nic if you are hosting my site?
Several years ago I transferred my web hosting to yahoo hosting from direct nic. It is time to renew my domain name. Do I have to renew my domain name with them to keep my domain name active? My domain name is alice-elizabeth.com
Do I have to renew my domain name with direct nic if you are hosting my site?
Hi
Hosting is different from domain registration. You defintely need to renew your domain name with your domain registration provider. I think from the details below, your domain name will get expired on May 22 2006. So renew the domain asap.

Now i%26#039;ll tell you why...
They offer outstanding value for money. Even their basic home package comes packed with features and even includes a free domain name!!!
They are reliable and my sites haven%26#039;t gone down once in the whole time i%26#039;ve used them. I own over 20 domains and reliability is very important to me.
Their customer service is excellent. Everytime i%26#039;ve dealt with someone they%26#039;ve been polite, helpful and honest.
For your needs I would go with the 1%26amp;1 home package. You can easily upgrade later. To be honest the basic home package comes with more features than you will probably need (but they%26#039;re there if you need them).

Can I use my personal computer space as a web space for my website?
I have a domain registered. I am creating a website which requires a lot of space say about 1GB to 3GB. To use web space provided by Web Hosting companies I found is very costly for such huge amount of data. So is it possible to use my personal computer space as a web space for my website. I am having Windows XP and Windows 2000 Professional as Operating Systems. I am using Java, JSP, Servlets, MySQL in this website.
Can I use my personal computer space as a web space for my website?
There shouldn%26#039;t be a problem so long as u have a static IP and a web server application like IIS, apache and so on. Since you%26#039;re using java, JSP, you can try apache tomcat. Oh and if you don%26#039;t have a static IP you can go to places like no-ip.com where you can have an url pointed to your IP and the information gets updated thru a software on your computer, so others can access your site thru yourname.no-ip.com. maybe you can point your domain to this url too.
Can I use my personal computer space as a web space for my website?
Try Apache server and you could host website on your computer.
But if you create website and if you like to run your website 24/7 from your computer, you will have to switch on your computer all the time and it may damage your computer in the long run.
If you intend to create a few websites (usually you will end up more than 1 website), go for multiple web hosting where you could handle your websites in one account.

How do I get yahoo to sponsor my bilingual web design class?
I am going to teach a web design class for bilingual small business and non bilingual small biz....using yahoo site builder tools and getting these biz to use yahoo web hosting . Plus a bilingual web design class for high school students with (the Gear Up program).
How do I get yahoo to sponsor my bilingual web design class?
Need to design that webpage in NVU or Mozilla, as you haven%26#039;t yet chosen a hosting server, and 61.5% of all Internet host servers run GNU/Linux or BSD!
Front Page will work, for $$$, but, why limit yourself to an expensive solution that has huge vulnerabilities, loves the 150,000 Microsoft virus definitions, can be warped and broken, by script kiddies?
Hosting isn%26#039;t free, except for lots of things like BLOGS, which get banner ads and pop-ups, all over them! Host it yourself, for %26lt;$6 per month, (offers right now are $2.95 per month!) on Yahoo (runs on BSD Servers, VERY fast!), or any
of the FREE BLOG servers (most run Linux or BSD, so are stable).
How do I get yahoo to sponsor my bilingual web design class?
you cant - they are not interested - to build a professional web site, a professional needs to do it. Not some goof with a copy of frontpage.
