This quick-tip is about the Webmaster Tools Tool Data Validator tool - which is an easier way to "teach" Google about the way things are described on your blog or website.
This is like a simpler way for website-owners (which is what bloggers really are) to tell Blogger about structured information that they put onto their sites - by point-and-clicking at the information on screen, rather than by learning the intricacies of Rich Snippets and the snippet testing tool.
What they've released so far is just an English-language tool for events - "such as concerts, sporting events, exhibitions, shows, and festivals".
To use it you need to
visit Webmaster Tools, select your site, click the "Optimization" link in the left sidebar, and click "Data Highlighter".
And obviously you need to have verified the blog in Webmaster Tools before you start, and to do the "learning" with the same account. NB Some blogs will be automatically verified, but some won't: if yours isn't, then the best way to do this is to choose Alternate Methods and choose HTML Tag - then add the meta-tag to your blog.
The bottom line is that for this to work, you need to put the information into your blog the same way every time (aka in a "consistent format"). What will be interesting to see is exactly how "consistent" it needs to be - I suspect that the tool will probably get smarter over time.
I haven't had a chance to try it yest, /But I am using a Blogger to manage the website for a small choir which has a concert in January. So I think I'll start by structuring the announcement of the last concert in June 2012, and then see how well it applies the learning to the next one.
Blogging platforms are a great way to share your knowledge with the rest of the world. Early in 2002, when we only had print media to share our knowledge, sharing was only limited for commercial purposes. Giving ads in newspaper or advertising on television or on radio station really costs big bucks. But as the internet industry grown more and more content sharing platforms came, of which blogging platforms proved revolutionary and it just boomed the internet industry. A person can sit at his comfort from his PC and throw up content on the internet and big giants like Google will really make it possible for your contents to get delivered to the right audience. Blogging Platforms are the only reason for the growth of Internet. People would never spend their time online if there were no contents to be found. Blogging platforms have made people to blog on what ever topic they love and this had made internet industry a living place. I don't find a topic on internet where people have not blogged on.
As more and more people get interested in using blogging platforms, this had made internet a constantly refreshing and expanding place. One very often and most desirable reason for people getting interested in Blogging platforms, is the ability to earn money out of blogging. So people lets review every thing about blogging platforms in details.
Top 5 Blogging Platforms for one to Blog
Since Internet is vast, not even Google can exactly say how many Blogging platforms are out there on the internet, but in this post I will be talking about the best top 10 blogging platforms.
1. Blogspot :
Blogspot also known as the blogger, is the most popular and trusted blogging platform. It is easy to use and maintain and It is one of the products of "Google". Like you own and use free gmail for emailing similarly Blogger.com is free to use and supports 100 authors. If you use Gmail then your blog will automatically created if you are logged in to your Gmail and then type "blogger.com"on a new tab.
You can see that this post which you are reading now is powered by "blogger.com" and it is a sub domain of "blogspot.com".
Why I prefer using Blogspot as my Blogging Platform?
Blogspot is owned by manged by Industries most expert and experienced engineers. Yes Google engineers.
If you can trust gmail for keeping your private files then you can definitely trust Blogger.com as well.
When it comes to creating the blog, it's just as easy as abc.
Blogger is the Blogging platform which cares for both new and advanced users.
The best of all is that Google has a separate "Google for blog" search engine which definitely helps new blogs to gain traffic much easily. Great huh!
2. WordPress:
WordPress is a great Blogging Platform. Though it's not an easy blogging platform if you are a newbie but if spend a little bit of your time you will definitely find WordPress great. WordPress brings two blogging platform for a blogger. Either you go to "WordPress.com" or "WordPress.org".
WordPress.com : Here you can start your own blog or website for free or paid.
If you choose to go for a free blog, then you gonna get your desired WordPress sub domain and you can start blogging without paying anything.
If you choose to go for paid, then you gonna get features like no ad serving, domain mapping facility, 10 GB of disk space, custom designing option for editing css and video hosting services and much more.
Note: When you decide to go for free version WordPress is gonna server advertisement on your blog so it's always a good option to start with free and then switch over to paid if your blog starts getting traffic which you can monetize.
Wordpress.org : This is the place for WordPress organization. WordPress team brings frequent updates on their Blogging platform and you can download it from here for completely free. The most important thing which I didn't tell you is that you can download their blogging platform script and upload it on your server and you are ready to start building your blog and your audience.
WordPress.org is like a showcase of their blogging platform. Here you learn about different plugins, their use, themes and much more. 3. HubPages:
Hubpages is not a designing platform but it is definitely a great blogging platform. At Hubpages you can blog almost about any topic. The blogging topic could be from any niche but it must be your own copyright. You can either share an article, video or create a recipe. The best part about Hubpages that if you are a passionate blogger then you can also earn money from your posts. Ya, you are allowed to sign for different advertising and monetizing programs on your hub. One of the most important thing to note here is that unlike blogger and WordPress, Hubpages has many active user and every time you post a page it gets viewed by most of the hubbers and it's easily found and indexed by Google and other popular search engines.
Copy and paste this in your browser to visit the Blogging platform: www.hubpages.com
4. Squidoo :
Squidoo is another blogging platform just similar to hubpages, but the only difference between hubpage and Squidoo platform is that at hubpages you can sign up for monetizing programs like adsense and eBay but at Squidoo you do earn a part of earning which Squidoo ads earn on your pages. Squidoo is again a very great free Blogging platform and your content gets seen by search engines very easily.
Both squidoo and hubpages are a great blogging platform indeed and you can earn money on both. I would recommend you to try both of them and see which one out of the two blogging platform works best for you.

No doubt blogger is the best blogging platform to make money. If you wanna make money by blogging then Google Adsense ad inventory is best for you and since Blogger is the property of Google, it becomes much easier to get approved for Adsense program.
Best blogging platforms for photographers:
For photographers I wold recommend to give WordPress a try.

So ya, WordPress should be your best blogging platform as a photographer.

Though the domain got registered first time in 1998 but it's DNS record says that the domain got registered again in October 2009. Though the company claims to be 15 years old but it's DNS record and it's inactivity often raises question in the mind of webmasters. By the way company got recognized as an IT company in 2009 and it's fame has grown like bush fire in just two short years of time. It's is even believed by most of the people that it's success is credited to Endurance International Group which is a well known domain registrar in the world.

6. Fatcow also cares for commercial website. Fatcow offers simple PayPal installation for allowing payment gateway on your website. You also get custom built coupons, shopping carts and catalogs for driving in more sales.

I mean $100 Google advertising credit, Yahoo+bing $25 search credit, $50 Facebook advertising credit, Business listing in premium directories for free which includes yp.com, free tool free number powered by nextiva.
10. Just read their support oath. The oath is just great. What a quality support service they have to offer. It's just great to host website at Fatcow.
Availing all these services for just $3.15/month is like boggling to me. I am really amazed by there services and plan they have to offer. It's just great to take services from them.
1. Fatcow website speed test: These are just the screen shorts for fatcow website speed test which I am sharing here. You can go and perform the speed test of Fatcow's website yourself at http://tools.pingdom.com
2. Fatcow reliability test: Pingdom reliability testing and monitoring service enables a user to check the server downtime, up-time reports and perform root cause analysis of a server. Applying Pingdom monitoring services on one of the Fatcow's shared hosting server enabled me to review their web server reliability.
Fatcow's Reliability data according to pingdom: Pingdom showed 99.9% server reliability of fatcow's hosting with a 0.300 second server response time. Awesome! We all know that, Fatcow operates it's two data center on Pooled server and clustering technology helps Fatcow insure such high up time guarantee.
3. Fatcow's Usability reviews: Fatcow has it's own tailor made control panel which comes very handy when installing scripts, CMS, web builder etc and gives a very pleasing end user experience. Though Fatcow control panel is customized by v Deck 4 and comes very handy when performing tasks like running ftp programs, email Id creation, managing sql databases and other server side tasks which is required but If you compare hostgator web weaver pack, with weebly or other designer packs available online, you might find fatcow's web weaver not as comparable as you might have thought. Even some of it's themes are not fully supported and compatible.
But since they are free, there is nothing harm in using them without you have to pay. This feature can be very awesome for those who have no designing knowledge and don't even wanna pay for development.
Another thing here which I would like to appreciate about fatcow's control panel is the ability to install popular CMS in just so ease. CMS like WordPress, Drupal and Joomla, Phpbb etc can be installed in just a click. simple scripts really make this very handy.
5. Fatcow's technical/support team reviews: Well, fatcow's has a very intelligent technical department. Awesome support department with quick response time usually within just 25 sec. Though Fatcow provides tool free no to it's support department but fatcow has availed many other support options to respond to it's clients which are online ticketing support system, integrated live chart support on the website, e-mail support system and step-by-step video guide and eBook.
6. Money back Guarantee: The most awesome thing about fatcow's web hosting services is their money back guarantee which they offer to their clients. If you encase, for any reason not happy with their services, you can simply ask for money refund from Fatcow support department. All you need is to message fatcow support team asking for your refund.
Note: Money back guarantee holds for the first 30 days only and this money back guarantee does not include the domain registration and seo services cost.
This article describes the Creative Commons search tool, which you can use to look for pictures, videos, music etc that are available for other people to use under a Creative Commons license.
The focus in that series was looking after your own rights.
But rights always come with responsibilities. The details vary by country, but in general you cannot just copy other people's recent work without their permission - in the same way that they cannot copy yours.
Some people, though, are happy to give other people permission to use their work, often with certain conditions (eg you must including an attribution link to the creator).
Creative Commons is an easy, legal way for creators to give permission for things they create to be used by other people. It is a framework which offers "licenses" that creators (writers, artists, composers, poets, etc) can apply to their work to say that other people can make copies, and what conditions apply (eg non-commercial use, only if you attribute me, etc)
To use it, authors, artists, etc don't need to register their work. Instead, they go to the Creative Commons website and get code / text to put with their published work to show what rules apply.
Then they can publish or upload their pictures, writing etc anywhere they want, and by linking to the licence the work is as protected as anything on the internet can be.
How to find pictures & music that are Creative Commons licensed
This is not a search engine. Instead it is a front-end-tool that lets you choose:
The keywords you want to search for (the search words)
The type of license that you need (use for commercial purposes - yes or no, modify, adapt, build upon - yes/no)
Which of the file host/search services to use (eg flickr, Google, Open clip art library - etc)
Once you have entered the search options, click on the source that you want to look in, and you are taken to that site and shown the results of the search-query and options you entered.
Changes allowed (because I wanted an image that I could use as the basis for another one, rather than exactly as it is now)
and clicked on Fotopedia, I was shown:
From here I could use the search tools in Fotopedia to refine my image-search and find just the right picture that I could use to represent a Christmas carol worksheet on my blog.
What sources are included
Today, the sources that are linked to from Creative Commons search are:
Eurpoeana - media
Flickr - pictures
Fotopedia - pictures
Google web - web search results
Google images - pictures
Jamenda - music
Open Clip Art Library - images
SpinXpress - media
Wikimedia Commons - media
YouTube - video
Pixabay - images
ccMixter - music
SoundCloud - music
It wouldn't surprise me if this list grow/shrinks, as sites become more or less useful as sources of public-domain or creative-commons-licensed materials.
Things to watch out for
Creative Commons cannot guarantee that the results of searches that start in their tools will always be available for re-use: source systems may change their approach, items may be mis-tagged, content owners may change their mind, etc. So they recommend that you should always click-through to the original image in the source site, and double-check the license and attribution requirements there.
Also, some sites may allow you to link directly to the copy of the image on their site. this can be a lot quicker than making your own copy, uploading it and included it in your blog. But doing this means that the image will not be used as the thumbnail-image for your post. And if the picture is ever removed from the original site - or its web-site address there changes - then the link in your blog will not work any more.
This quick-tip is about Google's winter 2012 product cancellations, which appear to have less impact on most Blogger users than their recent seasonal purges.
Today, Google have announced their next round of discontinued products - they used to call it "spring cleaning", but this time around have at least acknowledged that it's winter for half the world, and summer for the other half!
Some Google Calendar features are to be discontinued, specifically:
Creating new reservable times on a Calendar using Appointments Smart Rescheduler
Add gadget by URL.
Check your calendar via SMS/text message
Create event via SMS/text message (GVENT).
My guess is that this may affect some Blogger users, who have integrated a calendar with a blog. It's a fairly specialist area, so likely to be a small number.
There are a few other discontinued features, but I suspect they won't affect bloggers to much extent:
Google Sync a tool giving access to Google Mail, Calendar and Contacts via Microsoft Exchange's ActiveSync protocol - discontinued, except for Google Apps for Business, Government and Education.
Google Calendar Sync
Google Sync for Nokia S60
SyncML, a contacts sync service used by some older mobile devices.
Issue Tracker Data API: a tool that lets client applications view and update issues on Project Hosting on Google Code via API feeds.
Punchd an app that keeps loyalty cards on smartphones
This Quick Tip describes a new rule that AdSense is introducing to their terms and conditions, about how often the new 300x600 ad unit can be used on a single page.
Recently AdSense introduced two new sizes of ad-unit, the 300x600 Large Skyscraper and the 300x50 mobile-banner.
Personally, I like the 300x600 - it looks much more natural in several of my blogs, because it's more like the other things in the sidebar. Many of the ads it is showing at the moment are text-ads, because advertisers are still developing image-ads in the new size. But even the text ads look better, especially in sites where I am trying to blend ads with other content. (Believe it or not, I have one niche where many of the ads work the way Google originally thought of them, providing additional information that is genuinely useful to my readers.)
But you can have too much of a good thing.
AdSense have always had a rule that each screen should have no more than
3 ad-units and
3 link-units.
Now they have announced that from 10 January 2013, the rule is that each screen can have no more than
1 300x600 ad unit
3 ad-units
3 link-units.
This isn't a big issue for me, but obviously there are some publishers who have taken the p*** and devoted "too much" of their screen-real-estate to ads.
Or, if your blog is more like a newsletter for a club or group, you may want to create a community for your members instead, with less focus on the niche and more on the people.
Why bother
"Fantastic - yet another social media channel to grow and keep up to date. Just what we all need. Not!"
I sympathize ... but this time around, I suspect it will be worth the effort.
Firstly, if building communication and relationships between people who are interested in your niche is one of your blog's goals, there are strong reasons to move away from Facebook Groups and onto Google+Groups: On Facebook, Facebook's rules choose which posts are shown to your members. And people have been complaining that Facebook is showing non-paid updates to fewer people than before. In Google+, everything shows up in your members stream.
Second, unlike Facebook groups, everything that is posted to a Google+ community is indexed and so might be returned in Google search.
If enough people join the community - which you own and can therefore influence the direction of - then your blog may increase its authority in the niche area, because you are acknowledged as the founder / thought-leader. You can use this technique this on LinkedIn, Facebook, etc too. But Google+ communities are new, the best names aren't gone - and there will almost certainly be better SEO benefits from doing this inside a Google product than doing it elsewhere, even though people aren't 100% sure how it will all work yet. (Assuming that SEO matters for your blog - remember that it's irrelevant for some blogs.)
How to get community members
So far, there don't appear to be any gadgets, badges etc. I suspect they'll come. (Although the relative relationship between blog-commenters and community-members could be interesting to work out.)
But you can invite circles, or individual email addresses from within Google+ Communities
And you can put an invitation on your blog, like this
"Click here to join the How to Use Blogger community now, to see how communities work - you are free to leave at any time, and I promise not to spam you."

This quick tip is about a new feature that AdSense have just announced, which lets you control the types of ads that are banned - by website, instead of just for your entire AdSense account.
The second of these steps is basically about telling AdSense not to show certain categories of ads on your blog. One of the bug-bears with this is that, until now, it's been all-or-nothing: you could ban ad-categories from either all your sites or none of them. For example, one of my sites is likely to be visited by people who are unhappy with the idea of dating agencies using suggestive photos of young women in the ads. Until now, I've had to ban this category from all my sites, to be certain that they weren't show on the sensitive site. But now AdSense have announced that they support site-level blocking: this means that you can tell them not to show particular categories of ads on certain sites, but leave them on others. To use the feature, you will need to
Tell AdSense what URL / domains / web-addresses you manage (if you haven't done it already) and then
Set up blocking for individual sites as required.
The good news is that you can still choose "all sites" - and you can block by category from just sub-domains if you want to. It maybe that you cannot use the website-level blocking yet: Google started rolling it out in AdSense accounts late last week, and it will get to everyone eventually - I don't have it yet myself, but am looking forward to it eagerly.

2. ipage hosting reviews
Let's start ipage analysis by reviewing it's very popular money back guarantee. Though the ipage money back guarantee commits to return back money at any time without a question and is very popular also but what most people don't know, is the amount returned to a buyer at the time of cancellation of service is calculated on a rule which is formed on two basis:
i. Remaining Period. ii. The early cancellation charge.
MONEY REFUND RULE = { Remaining Period - cancellation charge} This money refund rule might sound disappointing but it is far better than getting no refund at all, which in fact is the case with most of the web hosts. Ipage is a web host situated in Boston, started in 1998, currently registering more than half million domains and hosting more than a million websites on it's server. Ipage was initially set to Boston but as it was now sold to Endurance International Group, the company expanded it's branches in 150 countries all around the world.

But if we leave it's dns records and it's claims a side and focus on rest of the reviewings, we find that webhostinghub has much to offer to it's clients. With a stand alone "shared hosting" plan starting with just $4.95 is one fit plan for all types of business needs.

Why I started this web hosting review blog?
Unlike past more and more companies are focusing their businesses nature online. In order to showcase products and find potential customers online the very first priority is to find a domain name registrar and a company for hosting your website. But we don't know which web host will fit with our nature of business, Which company provider provides optimum server up time, support services etc. Believe me, I have suffered many business failures just because of server down problems. I understood at just an age of 16 years that I am talented in IT field. My hunt for talent finished with the launch of my first website in "form 3" and since then till present I am constantly devoting my time and energy towards IT industry. The most tough thing for me as a newbie in IT was to choose a good company for my website. Believe me I have changed my website hosting server 3 times in a year because of server down problems. There are many companies with their tall claims like quality services, award wining support, 99.9% up time guarantee etc, but all these claims are not met by most of the companies. The point which always strike my mind was a review service. A tool-free service to perform analysis You must be thinking that I am going crazy now but I always dream that, what if a company ask you to take web hosting services on a review basis for say a month or two and then charge you, Though that type of analysis is only possible if web hosting companies let us do but since they charge for web hosting weather you want it on review basis or for use, this limits an Individual from performing reviews. To solve this review problem, I spend my money and time to review each webhosting companies personally and help you choose the right web host for your business. So that when you take web hosting services you forget about performing analysis and feel comfortable in choosing the web host for your business.
I divide my web hosting review procedure in two phase:
Phase 1: simple and general analysis. Phase 2: Complex and Advanced analysis.
Phase 1: This review phase is simple and is just a general review of a web host. I simple check for things like Plan types, It's cost, Up time guarantee, Trust and Authority, Experience, Services, Exclusive offers etc. After reviewing all these I simply go for the web host. I pretend like I am a new buy who don't even know like how to pay, Create email id, Upload files through ftp programs. I just play my self like a new guy who is not familiar with even control panel and this helps me review their support services. Here I also try to test the knowledge of their technical team by raising issues like virus problems, scripts installation etc.
Phase 2: This review phase starts after the completion of review phase 1. This phase is not a general phase i.e. It involves those activities which a normal user will never perform. The review phase starts by testing server speed using speed test meter. Then using Pingdom services to completely review any company. Since the process involves taking and and using their servers in order to tackle real world problems, this piece of process helps me give out much realistic analysis for my blog readers.
How do I evaluated web hosting review score?
I evaluate the score of web hosts by using multiple factors score:
Reliability Sore
Speed Score
Usability Score
Features Score
Price worth Score
Customer support Score
TOTAL SCORE = Reliability Sore + Speed Score + Usability Score + Features Score + Price worth Score + Customer support Score
REVIEW SCORE = TOTAL SCORE / 6
1. RELIABILITY:- The the most important aspect of all when it comes to review a company is reliability. For a business to succeed online it's web host should provide 99.9% server reliability and up time guarantee. Major Search engines like Google, Yahoo, Msn etc will never love a website which has server fault or is having server downtime and if they don't love it they will never put your website high up in their search results and you end up loosing customers. Server up time and reliability is what most of the SEO companies want to insure first. It is well known in SEO community that server down time has serious negative impact in your SEO effort. So in my analysis, reliability is in the topnotch priority.
2. SPEED SCORE: The second most important aspect which I look in a company while performing their hosting analysis is Speed. A company can include a plan for unlimited disk space and bandwidth in their sales page but might limit your web server speed so that if your website gets too popular and is using high server bandwidth, by limiting the speed helps companies to limit the use of their server because your website has access to limited data transfer/sec and this makes your site busy and it loads very poorly. Now this practice will help a company but for a website, it's something which a webmaster should never let happen and it is very annoying to your site's loyal visitors. So here I check different speed parameters and then I assign speed score points to get added in the report.
3. USABILITY SCORE: Their is no point in neglecting the usability factor when performing a check. It is tendency of newbies to neglect the usability factor just because of either lower price or higher bandwidth offer. But most webmasters know the importance of Usability.e.g. A task like WordPress installation can be done either manually or if the web hosting company provides simple scripts in control panel for single click CMS installation. With simple scripts in control panel can save your lot amount of time and hence make you more productive. Another thing when it comes to usability is the use of control panels. There are many control panels available in the market but the most easy and usable one is C panel. So it is important to choose a web host that provides c panel control panel for use. So here I check different usability parameters and then I assign usability score points to be added in the report.
4. FEATURES SCORE: What most of the people think of features in a plan is disk space and bandwidth. Though disk space and bandwidth are the most important one, but that's not. Think of a company which provides features like free Google and FB credit, free website submission in yellopages etc. All these features can prove icing in a business growth and one should never miss these features from availing. So here I check different features and then I assign feature score points to be added in the report.
5. PRICE SCORE: This review score deals with calculation the worthiness of price. Do you really get return on investment? Though the call is to check ROI and price worthiness but their are other things like easy payment option, money back guarantee, secure payment, privacy policy, billing terms, Tax information etc which I try to figure out as well. So here I check ROI and other price features and then assign Price score points to be added in the report.
6.CUSTOMER SUPPORT: If you are new to IT field, customer support will be something which you gonna be needing the most. Since web hosting is a digital product and you have no physical support so customer support plays an important role in both technical and customer support. Things like fast and intelligent technical technical support, online Ticket support, live chat are the Hallmark of a Good company. In order for me to assign customer support points, I test customer support department of a company by checking there response time and quality of response, Do they really take your call important? etc.
Are these review score honest, unbiased and unprejudiced?

Welcome to the best web hosting glossary of collection of different web hosting terms and definitions. Though there are many terms which is not possible to get covered in this post so I will try to include some important terminologies in this web hosting glossary only. Lets look at them.
1. Access Logs : An access logs is a term which is self explanatory itself. "Access log" simply means to check for your website visitors. Almost every control panel comes with the option of checking your access log details. Access logs make you better understand your website audience by provide you with full details about your visitors information which includes but is not limited to
Ip address of your website visitors.
Date and time of their visit
Duration of their visit
Geographical location of the visitors
Which pages got mostly seen and how much data is downloaded.
2. Apache : Apache is a free ware open source software. Apache is mainly used for web server management.Because of it's open source it is most widely used software for web servers.Even big companies like Google use it for their web server.When Apache first came, it was meant to be only for UNIX servers but as many upgrades came later on, made APACHE compatible with Windows as well as other operating platforms.APACHE is currently in use by many web hosting companies to manage their client websites. Since APACHE is open source,the source code can be edited and the software can be tailor made and this makes APACHE very secure, reliable and productive. Also their are frequent updates available on the internet for APACHE up gradation and this makes APACHE even more secure, reliable and productive.
3. ASP: Acronym for Active Server Pages. Active Server pages is nothing more than a server side scripting language which is Introduced by Microsoft to generate dynamic webpages on the server itself. ASP is also denoted as a classic ASP, a script engine which uses VB scripts and works on server only to produce dynamic webpages.
4. ActiveX: ActiveX is introduced by Microsoft in an intent to enhance the reusability standard in programming. With ActiveX an organization can produce reusable software parts which can then be recalled or inherited in other programmings if needed.
5. Add-on: This is a term which is more often used by web hosting companies. An add-on is something which comes as an extra product or service to enhance the usability. Add-on are generally included by webmasters to enhance their site overall performance and provide their visitors with more interactivity. Add-on are but not limited to guest posting facility, maps, Facebook integration, commenting feature, Chat etc.
6. Bandwidth: It is also termed as Data transfer in web hosting industry so don't confuse. Bandwidth is something which concerns both web host as well as their clients. A web host will try to put limit on the bandwidthallotment and a client will always look for the plan which provides more bandwidth in less cost. Bandwidth in simple terms means the amount of data that can the downloaded or uploaded in a month by a website. A data can be a simple text file or an image or a video etc. Let's say if you got a content of 5MB which you upload on your website and a visitor downloads it., so the total bandwidth used is 10MB( 5MB for you to upload on your server and 5MB for a visitor to download the file from your server). Bandwidth is also utilized if someone visits your website. So if your analytic shows that your website has 124 page views and if 10KB is used per page view in loading the page then this means that the total bandwidth used in 124 page views is 1 MB.
7.Backups: Backups means to keep a record or a duplicate copy of your web documents which could be needed in case of document losses.Web hosts do maintain backup of a website so that if any accident occurs from their or your side, a backup of all your documents is available. Their are some web hosts which offer a backup service of every 24 hours so that you get maximum maximum backups of your most recent documents.
8.Blog hosting: This is again a very important feature that most of the people look for when selecting their web host. Almost every individual blog and almost every company and business have a blog to show case their product and features.A blog hosting is not something extra special when it comes to hosting. Unlike the traditional hosting a blog hosting provides easy way to install blogging platforms like WordPress, Joomla, Drupal etc on the server with a single click etc.
9.Cookie: cookies are often misunderstood as a virus or a spyware but actually a cookie is something which a web server sends to a web browser to store and is used when you visit that web server again. Cookies help websites to understand about your preferences and your likes, what you might be looking for etc. Big search engine giants like Google use cookies to show you better ads. In my opinion cookies are safe and do not contain viruses etc.
10.Corn Jobs:A corn job is something which is more like a robotic stuff. You only have to pass command once and it will repeat that task on your server whenever it is scheduled for. e.g. If you set a backup task to be run everyday at 6 in the morning then the corn will per it's backup job at every 6 in the morning according to it's server clock.
11. Custom mail box: Whenever you register a domain name you get a custom mail box usually on your domain name e.g. If Facebook was your domain name then a custom email address on your name could be like shiv@facebook.com. 12.Custom error pages:A custom error page helps you create a error message page which you can then redirect using 401 and if a user misspells a URL then instead of returning an error message you visitor you can help him get redirected back to your home page or any other page that you may like. These custom error pages also help you maximize your traffic. 13.Control Panel: A control panel is where you manage all your website features and services. A control panel is used to login to ftp, create and manage emails, manage disk space, run corn jobs, check bandwidth usage etc.
14. Data Transfer: As discussed above, data transfer is same as Bandwidth usage. Check Bandwidth to know more in case if you don't.
15. DNS:Acronym for domain name server. Every domain name is joined with it's server ip address through DNS. So as you register a domain name it is then mapped with the server ip address so that whenever a person types in your domain name he/she gets transferred to the right server.
16. Dedicated Server: There are many kinds of server a web host has to offer which includes shared, virtual, dedicated and cloud hosting etc. A dedicated server is costly but it comes with little or no limitation. Your files are not shared and you have access to a full dedicated server and no one shares it with you. You can host as many files and sites as you want etc. To know more on more on Dedicated servers check Best servers for small business.
