PHP Web Hosting has evolved to include graphical applications, or for producing dynamic web pages using PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor), a widely used general purpose open-source scripting language that is takes PHP codes as the input and creates web pages as the output. PHP is installed on more than 20 million websites, due to it’s suitability for web development and capability to be embedded into HTML. It has advanced features that include object-oriented programming. For a detailed understanding of PHP, visit php.net, the official site for PHP.

Do You Know What The File Extensions Mean?

Published on October 1, 2008 in Linux, Mac, Microsoft, internet, tech blog, technology, tools and web sites. 2 Comments

Did you know that at one point, Microsoft restricted the file extension to just three characters? What that means is, files like .torrent stood no chance of running on a MS OS like Windows. This has changed since, and thanks to sites like www.file-extension.com, we can now track the progress and purpose of even the lesser know file extensions.

A precise outline of the nature and function of file extensions is not as simple as one would image, with over 40 years of developments and competing influences of Mac, Windows/Dos, and Unix-like operating systems, file systems and metadata formats are now harder to recognize and in some instances trust.

Three of the most popular type of files downloaded frequently online are probably the file extension MP3, GZ files and Zip. My personal favorite is the versatile MP3s, which are commonly used to encode audio with an intentionally simple algorithm specifically designed to maximize compression whilst still reproducing an audio track that sounds faithful to the original. Not only are these files versatile, they can be played with most all audio players.

Back to the File Extension site, I found that neither UNIX nor Mac operating systems used file extensions when they started rolling out. Instead each had their own file systems, with different conventions for storing metadata, which thankfully has changed over time. If you think you have see it all, check the site and you will realize that there are thousands of extensions you have used and many we will never. And when you do run into questions, you can count on file-extension.com to help you out.

When you are new on the world wide web, and ready to choose your first web hosting provider, the first question on your mind would be to know as to which web hosting is the best web hosting for your company?

If you have just started with a new website, and it’s your first time online presence, you may want to know how to choose a domain name, followed by choosing a web hosting provider. I would recommend that you start off with a web host provider that provides you only as much disk space as you may require initially and then gradually provides you additional disk space as your website grows in terms of the content with time. No point spending extra amount on space that remains unused. So first identify whether your site is graphic-intensive because that could take away a lot of disk space.

Try to get some experience first and you can always move to another web host later. In order to be able to do that, you would require a web hosting company service that does not force you to sign up for more than a year. You may get discounted prices for signing up for a longer period, but if you say shut down your site in less than one year, that discount would be a loss. Basically you don’t want to pay extra unless your site is popular. When your website generates huge traffic, you could consider longer periods to pay. Now that would be a value-add!

For beginners, BlueHost and HostMonster offer reasonable prices with a good service. Headsetoptions.org now provides an attractive web hosting package along with your custom WordPress Themes and Web Design. Contact us for more details.
