What
is the difference between Linux hosting and
Windows hosting? |
| A |
If you need to support
Microsoft products such as ASP, ASP.NET, MS
SQL, or VBScript or IIS, then Windows hosting
fits your needs.
Linux is much more common with web hosts because
of its stability and because it’s free.
Therefore, Linux hosting is usually cheaper
than Windows. |

| Q |
What
is the Domain Name System? |
| A |
The Domain Name System
(DNS) helps users to find their way around the
Internet. Every computer has an unique IP Addresses
and they are hard to remember. The DNS makes
using the Internet easier by allowing a familiar
string of letters (the "domain name")
to be used instead of the arcane IP address.
So instead of typing 216.239.57.99, you can
type www.google.com.
It is a "mnemonic" device that makes
addresses easier to remember. |
|
| Q |
What
does it mean to "register" a domain
name? |
| A |
The Internet domain name system
(DNS) consists of a directory, organized hierarchically,
of all the domain names and their corresponding
computers registered to particular companies
and persons using the Internet. When you register
a domain name, it will be associated with the
computer on the Internet you designate during
the period the registration is in effect. From
that computer, you can create a web site which
will be accessible to Internet users around
the world. |
|
| Q |
What
characters can I use when registering a domain
name? |
| A |

and 0-9 and hyphens (-) but your domain name
cannot start or end with a hyphen. Any other
character or punctuation should not be used. |
