Server Windows 2008

just brought a Windows Dedicated Server for your website from nespaceindia ? here are some quick way to manage it.

First thing let me list some of the feature which is included in your server powered by windows 2008 which is most important factor for your website hosted in this server (Please note : we are just listing basic tools only):

1.  IIS 7.5 : This release comes with many bug fixes which was there in IIS-7

2 Network Access Protection : Its a new tool also know as (NAP)  which enable you to manage control access to your network resources.

3.  RDM : This feature enable to manage your server remotely, it give a looks and feel of  having access to the machine physically.

4.  Windows PowerShell : Trademark by Microsoft, is much link a cron job in linux.

Listed above are just some of the features of Windows 2008 Server R2.

Now for hosting your first web site, in your newly installed server, you need to either manage it from IIS or you can install any Control Panel available.
Managing your site through IIS is the one of the option, Its highly recommend to have your server installed with control panel but if you want to save some money on it, Then you can follow this steps :

But before we guide about hosting a site on your IIS7.5 windows 2008 based Server you need to be familiar with terms like :

a.) SITE : It will tell IIS about the top-level domain name and path of its virtual directories.

b.) Binding : Its a type combination of different protocol which in layman term mean binding your site with FTP,WCF’s and other types of protocol.

c.) Application :  Act like a container for your application like php /asp.net.

The best thing about II7.5 is that, it come with a “default web site”  which is already configured. Which is actually your localhost, If you enter http://locahost from your RDM it will show up the default site but this will not be accessible from remote PC.

To create your own website from IIS, follow this steps :

1. Login to your server, windows 2008 and goto start >> Administrator Manager >> IIS

2. click on the (+) sign, in front of your server name.

3. You will get a folder icon named “sites”.

4.  right click on the icon you will get add website >> a new box will come in which will ask you to enter :

4.a) sitename : (Your domain name, eg: mysite.com), a application pool name will also created for this domain.
4.b) Physical Path :  is your actual path of your site file, in which you will store your website files.
4.C) HostName : your actual domain name like mysite.com.

And thats it, you are good to go. Just create a DNS entires and your site should be live. To know how to modify your domain name, name server follow our knowledge base of Changing Name Server

The next method will be getting a control panel downloaded and installed in your server, If you have ordered a server with pre-installed control panel then you dont have to go and manage your IIS every time you want to create a domain name hosting.

In my next post i will explain some of control panel available with “Windows Server 2008″ in more details, So do follow me.

 – February 3, 2011Posted in: VPS Hosting, Web Hosting, Web Hosting India
Netspaceindia VPS Server

If you are confused between choosing the VPS Hosting for your website, here are some suggestion which will help to clear your doubts.

If you website receives a good amount of traffic daily and if your web hosting provider telling you that your website is using too much resources of CPU. This may be due to, you may be using a lot of plugins and tools for your website and it takes a too much resources of CPU. So, in this time, instead of staying in shared hosting, you should move to VPS Hosting to enjoy these benefits.

This is because, as your website develop day by day, you may need a special server in which you can install the tools and run your website without any hassle. Specially for developers required for testing applications and tools in which they need a good configuration server which is not available in shared hosting. In this situation, you can get VPS server which is available at affordable cost in which you are free to install and test your website.

Also, if you are increasing the content of the website which require a good space, although you may get some good disk space from shared hosting, but there ere certain limitation in shared hosting which you cannot cross.

So, if you want the things according to your requirements, VPS is the good option in starting level which comes at affordable cost. And you can install programs as you require, and you also get good security for your website.

If we compare VPS with Shared hosting, VPS is more expensive but the resources which you get is the more then shared server, which includes more disk space, bandwidth, dedicated IP, root access, you get almost 99 % uptime guarantee, Guaranteed RAM and some additional features.

In short, VPS behaves exactly like dedicated server. So, if you are looking for an upgrade, VPS would be an better option to host website.

How to start your own tinyurl (For Dummies)

url-short-service

Ever wanted to start your own tiny url website ? This post is for the people who wanted to start there own tiny url or shorten url service with minimum technical knowledge.

In this example we have taken a example of http://tinurl.co

What is required ?

You need a domain name (really short) and a linux shared hosting service a basic knowledge of PHP, Mysql and Apache.

The web site structure
For creating a tiny url like website you need five files in total :

1: Index.php :

This is your main page, which ask user for the main url or long url to shorten the same.

2: random.php :

This file will create a shorten url for the entered long url.

3: redirect.php :

This is a standalone file which will actually do the redirection to long url when user refer the shorten url.

4: .htaccess

.htaccess file tell the apche server how to treat some special request like 404 error or any redirection and much more. In this case it will tell the apache server about the redirection method to use for shorten url.

5:  db.php

Over here we will store the database connection for mysql.

The Mysql Structure :

This is very simple database structure i ever used. There is only one table here which i named as  ” link ” because it will store all the requested long url and there shorter form.

The Table structure will have three fields :

1: sno

A auto increment field int value, this will your primary key.

2. actualurl

This field with VARCHAR type and limit of 255 will store the actual long url entered by the user.

3. tiny

As the name implement it will store the shorten form of entered long url.

Ok, now lots of theory is done here lets work on the coding part, I will go page wise :

db.php

<?php
 
$my_host = 'localhost'; // your host here
 
$my_user = 'db_username'; // your database url
 
$my_pass = 'db_password'; // your database password
 
$my_database = 'db_name'; // your database name
 
// database connection string
$conn = mysql_connect($my_host, $my_user, $my_pass) or die  ('Error connecting to mysql');
 
@mysql_select_db("my_$database") or die( "Unable to select database");
 
?>

index.php

<?php
include_once('db.php'); // making the db connection
 
?>
<!--  java script to verify the user input like it should be with http:// -->
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> 
 
function Validate(form) {
    var v = new RegExp();
    v.compile("^[A-Za-z]+://[A-Za-z0-9-_]+\\.[A-Za-z0-9-_%&\?\/.=]+$");
    if (!v.test(form["textfield"].value)) {
        alert("You must supply a valid URL.");
        return false;
    }
} 
 
</SCRIPT> 
 
<body topmargin="0" leftmargin="0">

 include_once('random.php');
 $query = "select * from links where actualurl ='$_POST[textfield]' limit 1";
 $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_query());
$count1 = mysql_num_rows($result);
 if($count1 =='0')
 {
  mysql_query("insert into links (actualurl,tiny) values ('$_POST[textfield]','$pwd')") or die(mysql_error());
 
  }else
  {
  	while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
	{
 
	$pwd = $row[tiny];

manager server

To host a website online, there are a lot of options available by the hosting providers on web. But do know that the hosting providers you choose do provide the managed or unmanaged solutions?

In this article we will discuss about the advantages and disadvantages of managed and unmanaged server and which one is suitable to host a website?

Unmanaged server is cheaper than the managed one, this is because the hosting provider will be responsible for only hardware, bandwidth and power supply. All other things such as installing software, technical issue, bugs need to be managed by the user and the hosting provider will not be responsible for these things.

A managed server is the only platform in which you don’t need to look in to anything such as server monitoring, security, functionality and other things. This is because, these all functions are available with the managed server hosting.

The managed server is more affordable to you in many reasons, for ex, if you  choose a unmanaged server and if you are not familiar with the server handling then you may need to hire some IT professional familiar to server monitoring. Unless you don’t hire a professional you won’t able to handle these things. So its best to select the managed server hosting, which will reduce your time things related to technical side.

Managed Hosting in India or at any other country will help you to have a good choice in making business. This is because you save your time in looking up at these issues and you can concentrate on your core business. If you face any type of trouble in server, you can easily contact the hosting provider through live chat or post a ticket and get your problem solved within sometime. As the companies hire the technical experts available for almost all the time to solve your issue.

But, if we look the difference of prices between both, the managed server cost more than the unmanaged one. But the features you get in managed are already installed which you get within one day and you can host your business website within a day.

Managed server is the entire solution to keep your website up without any bugs, as you can easily upgrade the things by requesting the hosting provider if you are in need.

By these ways, the managed server helps you to improve website business.

This type of platform comes in cheap price which come less then 15$ per year. However, it is not suitable for business website as you may face downtime issues sometimes due to multiple sites hosted on same server.

However, it is suitable for blogs, small website and personal websites.

VPS Hosting – recently popular hosting platform and a most suitable one for medium base websites and blog. The concept of VPS is that the server is a process of dividing the hard disk of the server in such a way that the every partition will work separately. The each partition runs can be individual operating system and can be separately rebooted. VPS provides more disk space and bandwidth compared with shared hosting; this platform is suitable for websites, which has regular amount of traffic such as forums, application websites made by developers. In this hosting, the customer has total control and access over the server. It also comes in two ways, on is managed and another one is unmanaged. Managed is more expensive than unmanaged this is due to the server are totally managed by the company.

Dedicated Hosting – One of the top-level web hosting for large traffic websites. In this server a customer, get the whole resources dedicated to one website only. This type of hosting is for very high traffic websites and blogs that have more then 10,000 visitors per day.

 – January 27, 2011Posted in: Dedicated Server, Web Hosting, Web Hosting India, Windows Dedicated Server
Dedicated Server Hosting

If you are running a business website on web and getting a good returns from it, but do you know is your website is safely hosted? If you have chosen a hosting platform such as shared or VPS hosting, it is not that your website is totally secured. It is because these servers are shared between the customers and the resources are shared between them.

So, if you are looking for total security and dedicated hardware resources for your website, you should hire a dedicated server for your website which is the entire solution for security, space and other things.

Now, we will look at some of the advantages of the dedicated server -

Excellent Performance

In this server, your hardware resources are not shared such as power supply, space, ram and bandwidth.

Better Consistency

You don’t need to worry about the downtime issues in dedicated server; the reason is there will be only one website hosted in the server you hire. So no other websites will be hosted expect yours.

High Security

This server is totally secured and no other person can access the server without your permission. So, your website is totally secured. You server is also monitored by hosting provider 24×7.

Software Installation

You can install the software which your website need; this features not allowed in shared or other platforms.

You get Dedicated IP address

In shared hosting, you get a shared IP address which can be risky for business. If one of the customer in shared server does some spam activity, the IP address gets blacklisted and your website too can be banned by search engines. But, in dedicated serer you get your own IP which will be an additional beneficial for you to run your business hassle free.

Upgrade Configuration

In dedicated server you get more memory, space, bandwidth and you can still upgrade the resources if you are in need.

If you think that you are earning a good amount of money through website, you should hire a dedicated server and easily concentrate on your core business instead of monitoring a server.
