Different Hosting Technologies?
With web technologies moving so quickly into so many different areas it pays to ask Web Hosts if they support a programme you may be thinking of implementing, before you subscribe to their service.
There are a few basic functions that are essential for
most businesses.
These include an online control panel that has:
- The ability to set your own e-mail addresses up through an online site control panel. When you require an e-mail address you just pop in and set it up- no waiting on support to do it for you
- Site statistics that give you references and other information on where your traffic is coming from. This is a valuable measurement tool - ensuring you can make an informed decision as to what online advertising is working.
- CGI Bin to run basic programmes.
- Forwarders and Auto Responders
- FTP Accounts
- Frontpage Extensions installed on the server are a must if using this software. The extensions allow Frontpage users to publish to a webserver with ease.
There is a range of different technologies becoming available
that you might require.
