			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Known for its name in computer applications, Microsoft has included exchange hosting as one of the beneficial applications that a company can use. There is a notion that this application is more likely to be used by large companies because its license can be very expensive. And of course, maintenance would require a pool of IT professionals and experts.</p>
<p><script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
 google_ad_client = "pub-0650179091511757"; /* 336x280, created 8/11/08 */ google_ad_slot = "3677787376"; google_ad_width = 336; google_ad_height = 280;

<script src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js" type="text/javascript"></script></p>
<p>These days, even some small business will be able to enjoy this application because of exchange outsourcing. They will now have an idea how outsourced exchange serves big companies and its importance for every business.</p>
<p>Why is Microsoft Exchange very beneficial for businesses? Its features include a large disk space for emails. Sharing files within a team is also possible through this application. At the same time, file synchronization to your handheld device is a breeze through ActiveSync.</p>
<p>Another reason why small businesses can now afford exchange outsourcing is because its charges have been lowered down. In this way, they can improve their performance and production at a fraction of the usual cost.</p>
<p>To maintain a website would really be time consuming and costly that is why you need to hire some IT experts to handle the management and maintenance work. Their work would mainly include updating, installations, certificate acquisitions, and a lot more.</p>
<p>And because the name of the company is Microsoft, you can be assured of high quality security. You might hear that a lot of websites are experiencing down times lately because of malware intruding to the computer server and thus affecting the websites. At the same time, you will also be protected from spyware that can be problematic in a number of ways and in terms of stealing your ideas for the company. This is one reason why Microsoft reliability is important when it comes to security.</p>
<p>Round the clock customer support is also offered and they are always updating the Microsoft website with articles that will help in expanding the knowledge of the visitors and potential clients. They maintain a very extensive database of answers which you can refer to for any of your IT issues.</p>
<p>A hosting system that is very stable and reliable should not drain a lot of cash from the clients. Through exchange outsourcing, you will get services that are second to none  to put your business on top of the business world.</p>
<p>Are you thinking about <a href="http://myhosting.com/exchange/">exchange outsourcing</a> as a solution to cut costs and save your company time and effort? <a href="http://myhosting.com/">http://myhosting.com</a> can help you. Find out more today!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="center"><a href="http://www.wpdesigner.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.ask-the-computer-doc.com/images/wpdesigner.JPG" alt="Web Host" /></a></p>
<h3>What is This Site About?</h3>
<p>Whatever this site is doing, it is certainly doing something right. It has an awesome page rank of 7 and a great Alexa score.</p>
<p><span id="more-305"></span></p>
<p>However, figuring out what http://www.wpdesigner.com is about is not that easy.  It sometimes refers to itself as <a href="http://www.wpdesigner.com" target="_blank">web host</a> and if you do a site analysis using Adwords, the vast majority of the references relate to web hosting. On the other hand, the title is WPDesigner which indicates that it is about WordPress theme design and many of the links on the home page relate to theme design and development issues.</p>
<p>The about page provides some insight. Small potato, the fascinating and talented founder of the site writes:</p>
<p>&#8220;Wpdesigner.com is a blog focused on developing WordPress themes and improving your blog’s performance through code and design tweaks.&#8221;</p>
<p>He adds:</p>
<p>&#8220;I started Wpdesigner.com back in May 2006 because I was not happy with the quality of free WordPress themes at that time and decided to learn how to create one for myself and release it for free. Gradually, Wpdesigner turned from a simple place where I release free themes into a blog, which covered WordPress tips, tutorials, and general web development topics. Along with more than 50 free WordPress themes, I managed to put together a series of articles on how to create a WordPress theme scratch, which is the most popular series of this blog.&#8221;</p>
<p>He eventually turned the site into a membership site which is now defunct.</p>
<p>In summary, <a href="http://www.wpdesigner.com/" target="_blank">web host</a> is a site which has a dual role. It provides guidance on developing WP themes, reviews many themes and provides overall WP advice. Currently, it has metamorphosed into a web hosting review site which is accompanied by a number of very enlightening articles defining web hosting and providing guidance about all sorts of web hosting and website development issues.</p>
<h3>The Good, the Bad and the Ugly</h3>
<p>The site has some excellent articles and tutorials. The WP designer articles have very clear and well written tutorials describing how to do a number of things. One good example is the <a href="http://www.wpdesigner.com/2007/06/04/wordpress-date-button/" target="_blank">WordPress Date Button</a> tutorial.</p>
<p>The WWMD (WordPress Weekend Must Do) section is chock full of great ideas and suggestions for improving your blog. His treatment of <a href="http://www.wpdesigner.com/2007/09/15/wwmd-reduce-bounce-rate/" target="_blank">reducing bounce rate</a> is especially noteworthy.</p>
<p>The hosting articles are very well written and informative. The <a href="http://www.wpdesigner.com/hosting/guide-to-switching-web-hosts/" target="_blank">Transferring Your Website to Another Hosting Provider</a> removes the anxiety one migh</p>
<p>t have about doing this.  <a href="http://www.wpdesigner.com/hosting/choosing-a-web-design-firm/" target="_blank">Choosing a web design firm</a> is well thought out and covers all the bases and relevant issues.</p>
<p>A comprehensive review of the site&#8217;s top 10 web host picks is provided on the home page.</p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-322" style="margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px; float:left;" title="small-potato" src="http://www.askthecomputerdoc.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/small-potato.jpg" alt="small-potato" width="100" height="100" /></p>
<p>Small potato was a unique character and added a certain panache to the site. An example is his insistence that all guest bloggers for</p>
<p>Wpdesigner must upload a 100×100 pixels photo for him to draw a mustache on it.</p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-323" style="margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px; float:left;" title="chris-cagle" src="http://www.askthecomputerdoc.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/chris-cagle.jpg" alt="chris-cagle" width="100" height="100" /></p>
<p>Chris Cagle</p>
<p>guest blogger</p>
<p>small potato has basically retired and he recounts <a href="http://www.chris-wallace.com/2009/05/25/interview-with-small-potato/" target="_blank">details of his current plans with Chris Wallace</a></p>
<p>The WordPress content is good but it is somewhat dated and is not getting updated. The theme club that is described no longer exists and some clear statement about this should be made up front The site could use a bit of reorganization to make it easier to navigate and discern the intent of the site.</p>
<p>I personally found the light brown text on a dark brown background somewhat difficult to read. It could just be my well used eyes but I think an enhancement would help.</p>
<h3>Summary</h3>
<p><a href="http://www.wpdesigner.com/" target="_blank">Web host</a> as it is currently known, has a lot of very insightful and interesting content. The WordPress stuff. although high quality,  is getting a bit long in tooth and the site is transitioning to a web hosting review site. The web hosting information is high quality. It can use a bit of an upgrade but many will find useful information here.</p>

<p>Many people today have an online business or a personal website, and their websites require the services of a web hosting company in order to have an online presence.  A couple of years ago, there were not as many people with website; however, today, many people have their own site.  The trend of increased websites has caused an increase in the number of web hosting companies available to the consumer, which may seem great, but often makes the choice more difficult.  Ultimately choosing a web hosting company can be quite simple if you follow the guidelines listed below.</p>
<p><span id="more-278"></span></p>
<p><script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
 google_ad_client = "pub-0650179091511757"; /* 336x280, created 8/11/08 */ google_ad_slot = "3677787376"; google_ad_width = 336; google_ad_height = 280;
// ]]&gt;</script><br />
<script src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js" type="text/javascript"></script></p>
<p>When it comes to web hosting companies, not all are created equal, and there are definitely companies out that specializing in specific needs.  Many people have smaller websites, so their hosting needs will be a lot different than those who have larger, more complex websites.  Thus, choosing the best hosting company entails taking the time to consider your needs and then matching those needs against the services each hosting company offers.</p>
<p>The top concern on everyone&#8217;s list for hosting companies is price, because, especially in this economy, no one wants to pay more than they have to.  Rates for hosting companies vary from free services to expensive services; yet, it is important to remember that usually you get what you pay for.  Also, your cost and need objectives may not always match up, so try to meet in the middle.  And, you will definitely want to shop around for the best price based on your needs.</p>
<p>When you shop around for the best price, also try to research what the hosting companies current customers are saying about their services.  You want to be sure that you and your viewers can rely on the hosting company at all times; that your site is easily accessible.  A good idea might be to check out some of the websites that the company currently hosts.  Make sure that you can view the pages quickly and that you do not have to wait around while the pages load.</p>
<p>Regardless of the size of your website, you will need to rely on some amount of bandwidth and disk space from the host company in order to transfer your data.  Without the bandwidth and disk space, you would not be able to properly run your site.  Keep in mind that as your site grows, you may require more bandwidth and more space; thus, it is always a smart idea to get more than you think you need so that you do not run out of space in the future.</p>
<p>In every industry, customer service is always a huge priority, and it is no different with web hosting.  Make sure to find a web hosting company that offers technical support at all times, because you never know when you will need to rely on that support.  There may be a chance that something goes wrong during the middle of the night, and in that case, you will be glad that you have support.  It is an important feature not to be overlooked.</p>
<p>In addition to the basic space and speed needs for your hosting, you may also want to look into companies that offer special features.  A good hosting service will most likely allow you to use email addresses in addition to hosting.  Also, many people like to use a variety of scripts on their site so you will want to be sure the hosting service is capable of handling these scripts.  Lastly, consider certain other features like shopping carts, and secure servers that may be available to help you with your site.</p>
<p>After you finalize your hosting decision and actually pick a company to go with, make sure to properly evaluate how the company is doing.  Obviously, you picked the web hosting company for a reason, and it is important that you make sure they are measuring up to your expectations.  Are they providing the customer service, speed, space, and reliability that you had hoped for?  Maybe you are getting everything you hoped for; or you got more than you needed or not enough.</p>
<p>If the hosting company you picked is not perfect for your needs, do not be afraid to move. You are not stuck with your first pick.  Only sign a long-term contract when you are sure that the company you are with is right for your needs.  Until then, feel free to move around if the company you are with is not adequately meeting your needs.</p>
<p>When you do find the perfect web hosting company, it will definitely be a great day.  Although it may take some effort and research, you will be glad you took the time.  The right web hosting company will make your website that much better.</p>

<p>The name The Planet is synonymous with a powerhouse in the web hosting industry. The figures speak for themselves, with more than 16 m websites being hosted from all 4 corners of the earth.</p>
<p><span id="more-74"></span></p>
<p>They are the largest dedicated sever hosting company in the world with over 500 employees and they also offer managed hosting and colocation services.</p>
<p>So all good stuff, but it doesn&#8217;t necessarily mean anything to a customer. A customer of course wants good and reliable service and a good price.</p>
<p>The planet are very good at offering a large range of facilities and services to their clients, which is largely down to their size and the level of infrastructure they have backing them up.</p>
<p>As a current client of The Planet, I know about their level of customer service and care. I am very happy with how I have been dealt with, and any support problems I have are always fixed up in no time at all.</p>
<p>You can also make changes to level of your account with the planet very easily. You don&#8217;t need to worry if your business or personal circumstances change and you need to either upgrade or downsize. The Planet will always accommodate you and make any changes go smoothly.</p>
<p>They are almost peerless in the level of technology that they employ. In technical terms this means maximum speed for their servers combined with strong reliability. In terms of numbers there is a 25+ gigabits/sec of transit network capacity to 7 Tier 1 backbone networks.</p>
<p>Now, when it comes down to the all important price points, The Planet scores very highly as well. They are extremely good value for money and I would like to point out that you should not get fooled by some companies out there that offer extremely cheap servers, because you ultimately get what you pay for.</p>

<p>If you&#8217;re working on a web application, you need a server to host your website. It pays to consider a web hosting provider. This is an organization that runs websites for companies small and large. Using a hosting provider has many advantages and might make great sense for your business. To figure out whether hosting your site with a hosting provider is right for your business, consider these important points.</p>
<p><span id="more-56"></span></p>
<p>First, a hosting provider has a gigantic internet connection. Since they host lots and lots of sites, they can get a volume discount to get giant bandwidth. That means that you don&#8217;t have to worry about shelling out money for an internet connection or configuring it. Since users want your site to respond as quickly as possible, this is important. Plus, obtaining a high bandwidth internet connection is costly for small businesses.</p>
<p>Also, hosting companies give you a computer with software preinstalled. Since installing, setting up, and maintaining software can be a huge task, this will lessen your expenses. Research has shown that maintaining the hardware and software for your website is the number one expense of hosting a website. This is done without requiring a dedicated IT worker. That really decreases your expenses.</p>
<p>Third, a hosting provider takes care of some parts of computer security. You don&#8217;t want criminals taking over your website, and a hosting provider has somebody working full time to make sure that this doesn&#8217;t happen. Your business depends on the trust of its customers, so make sure your website is totally secure. This is much easier by letting your hosting company take care of as many security details as possible.</p>
<p>Using a web hosting provider is a great way to outsource labor and save your business money. Find a company that will work with your business to meet your needs.</p>
<p>Website hosting makes good sense for your business. Your customers and shareholders deserve it. Here&#8217;s hoping that your website succeeds!</p>

<p>I have been on the Internet for a well over 13 years. For those of you who understand the Internet and have been around long enough, that is a literal eternity. Whenever I first started on the Internet, I decided it would be a good idea for me to have my own website. Although things were a little bit different online in those days, there were many things that were similar.</p>
<p><span id="more-43"></span></p>
<p>At that particular time, there was only one place that you were able to buy a domain name and that was through networksolutions.com. A domain cost about $35, but now they are available in multiple places and many times you can get them for well under $10 each. I purchased the domain name without really knowing what to do with it and I needed to take a crash course on Web hosting. It was amazing how an enhanced my life.</p>
<p>Whenever I first got started hosting a website, I was on a shared server and it cost me roughly $20 per month in order to own the service. Being on a shared server is one of the most popular options that is available to those who are hosting a website. You have your own little bit of space that exist on a physical server but you&#8217;re also sharing the server itself with hundreds or perhaps even thousands of other websites. Shared servers have come down in price in recent years and it is possible for you to get a reliable service for under five dollars a month.</p>
<p>My business eventually grew and the traffic that I was receiving to my website grew along with it. I needed a more robust server in order to handle the traffic that was coming my way and for this, I decided on a VPS. This stands for virtual Private server, and it is simply a way of saying that you are still sharing a server but that you will have a much larger chunk of the resources that are available. Most of these types of servers are only split among six or eight people.</p>
<p>As my business continued to grow, I started to purchase additional server space at various locations. At times, I would start a new website on a shared server and host it there until I got enough traffic that it could support itself on a virtual Private server. I also started hosting multiple domain names on the same server, even though I made sure each one had its own individual IP address.</p>
<p>Eventually, my business grew to the point where I could get a dedicated server and host many of my busier websites on it. Having a dedicated server opened me up to even more traffic as I was able to use all of the server resources for my business.</p>
<p>Is it going to take you a little bit of time to understand Web hosting? Of course it is, but the time that you spend understanding hosting and choosing a proper web host is going to enhance your business in a number of different ways. Don&#8217;t rush through this decision, as it is going to be a decision that you need to live with for the long term.</p>

<p>Name something that&#8217;s easy to obtain? Low-priced web hosting. Sometimes it looks like there are a zillion out there.  And So, which one do you choose? You want it to be inexpensive, but still accommodate the needs of your site. Acquiring an inexpensive site is not so difficult, it can just be a little bit time consuming.</p>
<p><span id="more-14"></span></p>
<p>It can be a pain in the neck the find the right low-priced web hosting, but it&#8217;s not tough. Type it into Yahoo and you can find  of website providers, who are based in every nook and cranny of the globe. Naturally most claim to offer the greatest service at competitive prices. Most are good. Some not so effective, so you&#8217;ve got to take a closer look..whether you are looking for <a href="http://affordablewebhostingservices.net/" target="_blank">frontpage web site hosting</a> or you just want to <a href="http://affordablewebhostingservices.net/" target="_blank">buy web hosting</a> you&#8217;ve got to do your research.</p>
<p>Dedicated host or a shared server? What&#8217;s the difference? When you’re talking about a business website you should be sure to know. They are the two most common web hosting solutions offered by web hosting companies. What you select will decide the cost you have to pay and the overall performance of your site. You need to decide which kind you want.</p>
<p>Relax, I am going to give you some information. Dedicated servers are more pricey since the web hosting service will be giving you an entire web server for your data files.</p>
<p>Shared hosting is just that. You share a web server with many other websites. This keeps the cost down for you. Don’t worry about sharing, most people don’t require a great deal of space and performance should not be greatly affected.</p>
