Website Hosting
Selecting a domain name is a critical aspect of building a website. A short domain name (TryUs.com, for example) is easy to remember and has only a few letters to type into your browser's address bar. If nothing else, your domain name should be easy to remember and should contain common words or a popular phrase.
The size and amount of data (text, image and media files, etc.) will determine the amount of bandwidth your site requires. Large sites cosume vast amounts of bandwidth, especially if the site is popular, and usually require dedicated servers. For smaller or less frequently visited sites, a shared or virtual hosting server should suffice.

Secure Sockets Layer:
Whenever you're transmitting a visitor's personal information over the Internet (via a form) or incorporating a shopping cart into your site, an SSL certificate should be used.
SSL is a cryptographic protocol that provides security for communications over networks and the Internet. It encrypts the data and the connections at the Transport Layer, end-to-end. |
