To administer a website means one is in charge of the website and responsible for keeping it up and running. Administration also means changing the free drupal themes on the site on an as needed basis. Drupal provides a number of sections which helps a person to administer their website. These sections include content, appearance, people, structure and configuration.

When a person configures their website it means they are making a change to the website. Drupal allows people to make simple and difficult changes to their website, an example being changing the slogan that appears under the company name. Other changes sometimes include changing the theme or adding a new theme altogether.

Linux hosting: what hardware to get

admin — Fri, 22 Apr 2011 01:09:36 +0000

Once you have decided that you want to host your website on the Linux OS, the next thing to find is which hardware to use. The good thing about Linux hosting is that it does not need state-of-art hardware to run smoothly, unlike Windows. Linux will run just as well on your year 2000 PC as on a 2011 PC. You will definitely see the performance benefits of the newer PC and be able to use the features that come with it. But for most users the experience will be better on the 2000 PC and best on the latest PC. If you have the ability to compile your own kernel – which can be difficult to learn initially but can become very easy once you do it a couple of times – the other skill to learn would be how to install modules in Linux. It will allow you to harness the latest features of your hardware even if the base kernel does not support them. In short, get the latest and cheapest hardware you can lay your hands on.

It can take hours to fix one link on numerous pages with normal maintenance but when it comes to using Joomla, the maintenance times are cut down three-fold because everything can be done from one page. The whole set up is extremely user friendly. However, one thing that is worth remembering with Joomla is that as you add things, the whole website is updated at the same time.

Rather than making all of your changes and then needing to upload them all again, everything that you do is changed right away on the website and instantly visible to everybody. However, it does mean that small changes are taken care of very quickly and easily with just two or three clicks at the most.

Ways That You Can Get Involved In Cloud Hosting Technology

admin — Fri, 18 Feb 2011 01:03:45 +0000

As you are looking for your next hosting company, ask if they have a cloud hosting type of system. Some of them may advertise it that way, so ask the others. This type of hosting still has the same type of control panel that you are used to so nothing changes in that regard. They just have the systems in place to be able to switch the needs for disc space, operations that require more bandwidth for a short period of time or other operational considerations to another one of the servers.

Some other things to think about is that since you will be using several different servers, the file formats can be as different as night and day on the same page. The different servers will have users that have these different file formats running and you can piggy back on their use to great effect. Last but certainly not least is that when you are shopping for a new hosting company, the cloud features allow you to pay for only what you need.
