A website owner must have the necessary knowledge and skills to manage their website effectively. This includes accessing the domain and host, linking the domain to a legal entity and choosing the right hosting service.
Hosting
The first thing you need to think about is choosing a dedicated low-cost server online. What kind of hosting? Which one to use and for what purposes?
The type of hosting you choose depends on your website and your requirements for performance, scalability, security and control.
There are several types of hosting, each with different features and suitable for different purposes. Let's take a look at some of them:
Shared Hosting: this is the most common type of hosting that provides a single server to host multiple websites. This type of hosting is well suited for small websites and blogs, as well as for those who are just starting their journey in web development.
Virtual Private Server (VPS): this is a type of hosting that provides more resources and control than shared hosting, but remains affordable. This type of hosting is well suited for medium-sized websites, online stores, and those who require more control over their server.
Dedicated Server: This is a type of hosting that provides full control over the server and maximum performance.
This type of hosting is well suited for large websites, online stores, applications, game servers and other projects that require high performance.
Cloud Hosting: This is a type of hosting that provides the ability to utilize the resources of multiple servers. This type of hosting is well suited for websites and applications that require scalability and high availability.
WordPress Hosting: this is a type of hosting that is specifically customized for hosting websites built on the WordPress platform. This type of hosting provides improved performance, security and functionality for WordPress powered websites.
Domain
When registering a domain (applies to hosting as well), you should save your login and password in a safe place. For example, you can write them down in a file on your computer and encrypt it with a password. Simple passwords that are easy to pick should never be used. It is also necessary to ensure regular backups of the site and database so that in case of failure it is possible to quickly restore the work of the site.
For a legal entity, it is important to have a properly linked domain that will be used for official business. To do this, it is necessary to register the domain in the name of the legal entity. This can be done independently or through a domain name registrar. When registering, you need to provide the details of the legal entity such as name, address and contact details. It is important to make sure that the data is filled in correctly, as incorrect data can lead to problems in the future.
