  • VPS for VPN

With the alarming need to protect privacy on the Internet, more and more individuals use VPN for personal gains. If you share or access sensitive data or you don’t want anyone to know about your activities, you need to trust your VPN provider. In that case, you can become your VPN provider yourself and install a VPN server on a VPS.

  • VPS as a representative

It works as an intermediary between your device and the rest of the Internet. When your device sends a request, a proxy intercepts it and checks whether it has requested data in the cache. If yes, it returns the cached version of the data without connecting to the requested resource. If not, a proxy server passes your request further but changes your IP to its own.

THE IMPORTANCE OF WEB HOSTING

importance of web hostingLet us have a look at the various reasons which makes having a good hosting important for a website.

Lesser Downtime: Downtime is the period when your site may not be accessible to a visitor. This time may be a few seconds or even hours. During this time, you may be losing many business opportunities which may have come your way. If you have web hosting from reputed hosting organization then it can be said with certainty that you will be having lesser or no downtime. So, you will not have an impression of unreliability upon your customer.

Organized E-mails: You may be using separate e-mails and online accounts for your business correspondences. The web hosting package that you select will include such e-mail links to your site. Having such inclusion will help you to organize those e-mails and separate them from other correspondence that you have. Moreover, your e-mail address will be more memorable as it will match your website.

Ability to Deal Huge Traffic: It may so happen that when you are having maximum traffic to your site your site temporarily faces a downtime. But if you have dedicated web hosting then such incidents will not happen and you will have the ability to manage maximum traffic to your site.

Effective Maintenance of Hardware: When you have web hosting from a reputed service provider then you do not have to bother with the maintenance of hardware. They will be effectively handled by the service provider. They will be allocating a number of servers on both sides and if one fails it will automatically be transferred to the other. This will also enable you to have a lesser amount of data loss.

Enhanced Marketing: It can easily be said that if you have a better web hosting you will have greater marketing opportunities. Incidents like this will not happen that when your client is searching for a product or is about to make a payment for an order your site faces a downtime. An incident like this will generally lessen your chance of having better business. That particular potential customer will find another site which has proper web hosting and buys the product from there. But if you have such a web hosting then that potential client would have been your valued customer.

It can be seen how important it is to have effective web hosting for a better online presence and enhancement of business.

web hosting and how it works

web hosting and how it works

What is web hosting and how it works.

Web hosting is the service of providing storage space for a website or application on a server on the internet. Computers connected to the internet, can access the website once made available on the internet.

Web hosts are companies that rent out their services and technologies to host websites on the internet. Once the hosting company hosts your website, users can access it by typing in your web address (domain name) in their web browser. Their computer connects to the server your website is hosted on,when they do this. The server in turn serves the website to your web visitor in their web browser.

5 web hosting options available.

  • Dedicated Hosting:
    Dedicated hosting gives you complete/administrative control of your server with full root access. You can choose to install any software you wish to.
  • Reseller Hosting:
    If you want to get into the hosting business, purchasing Reseller Hosting enables you to rent out or re-sell the same hosting services provided by the parent hosting company. With Reseller Hosting, you can also up-sell every other web service offered by the parent web host.
  • WordPress Hosting:
    If you have a WordPress blog or website, it is recommended that you purchase a WordPress hosting package as it is specifically optimized to cater to your WordPress website.
  • VPS hosting:
    Also known as a (Virtual Private Server) is a virtual machine provided by a web hosting. It runs its own operating system (OS) and provides admin rights and root access so that you can install any required software. You have more control with a virtual server. Think of VPS hosting as a higher, stronger more advanced form of shared hosting.You can be assigned resources that are not shared with the other properties,while you do share a server with other websites. If you cannot afford a dedicated server, VPS is the way to go.
  • Shared Hosting:
    If you have a blog or a small business that is just starting out, Shared Hosting is a good option to start with. Your server space is shared by other websites, making it the most affordable hosting option available. It’s simple and easy-to-use. On the other hand, because you share space and resources with multiple other websites on the same server, an overload with another website will cause your website to slow down. You have minimal control over the server. To Know more about web hosting, click here.

Managed Service Provider

Managed Service Provider.

Managed Service Provider, also known as MSP. This is a service provided by IT companies to small and medium-sized business, and sometimes large organizations, governments and non-profits.

It is applicable in instances where by the businesses do not have full-time in-house IT staff members.

A MSP either charges on an annual basis or a monthly recurring fee. There is a service level agreement (SLA) that is tied to the contract. The contract is well detailed with a list of all items and tasks to be included.

Managed Service Provider

Tasks list might include as;

  • 24/7 network monitoring of servers,
  • desktop,
  • laptops
  • endpoint devices.

Depending on the terms and conditions spelled out in the contract the service provider may also include repairing any issues that arise, patching of devices to keep them updated and monitoring the system. www.kemnet.co.ke

Types of MSP Providers

  • Network Infrastructure
  • Software as a Service (SaaS)
  • Communication Services
  • IT Support
  • Security as a Service

MSP provides a great value for money by being proactive in fixing issues before they occur. MSP assists in optimizing the IT environment to prevent and lessen the need for regular break/fix issues. Mostly MSP provides remote services. A Remote Monitoring and Management system (RMM) monitors and fix issues remotely.

MSP has access to the environment and regularly monitors it and is better prepared for any emergency issues that may arise. It also has skilled technicians in Level 1, 2 and 3 that assist with the IT tasks and fix arising IT issues.

The MSP provides different billable rate for each technician assigned to work on any given issue.

Once you start working with a managed service provider, the remote team will take over on day-to-day monitoring and maintenance for your network, sometimes including jobs like antivirus protection.

Monitoring Your Network

IT service providers use remote monitoring and managing (RMM) software for networks and servers. RMM software enables the MSP company to easily manage your network and closely monitor it without sitting next to a server. If something goes wrong, or if a server on the network isn’t operating as it should, the RMM software notifies a system administrator. This software can also make it much easier to apply important updates, like security patches. It can even automate routine processes like finding more disk space for a server.

Qualities of an Effective Website

Effective Website

With rapid technological advancements, it is almost unheard of for businesses and other organizations to be absent on the internet.
People and companies alike are increasingly turning to online sources for research and to make product inquiries. To get a share of this traffic, it is important to have a proper and effective website that is attractive.

There are millions of websites online and your site will need an imposing presence to fare well. In-case of a stiff competition. If rival companies pitch their tent online and fight for same audience, it means that your work is properly cut out for you!

While there are many ways of achieving a commanding presence on the internet, having an effective web design is probably the most basic of these.

Qualities of an effective website

Friendly to the end users
Design a proper website with the end user in mind. This means a simplified interface that is not difficult to understand. Have menu items at a prominent part of your first page. Be careful, though, not to have too many menu items that a user gets confused.

Offers an interactive and exciting interface
Obviously, not many people will want to stay a minute longer in a platform that is boring. Add pictures and short videos to captivate audience. Plain text can be somewhat boring and may not push your agenda very far. Interactivity also implies accepting feedback from visitors and offering them contacts to get in touch with you. You can also consider having a “Help” page where questions that may arise from users are pre-answered.

Layout and usability of a website.

Effective Website

Does not have prohibitive loading times
There is nothing as frustrating as a website that takes forever to load! Users are presented with many options online and if yours takes a long time to show, they simply move on to the next alternative. While this does not necessarily mean that you should give insufficient content, it calls for a careful balance between the two.

Accessible by different browsers
Your platform attracts people for one reason or the other and they use different browsers. While there are common and popular browers, the safest bet is to be compatible with as many browsers as is possible. Moreover, you want your platform to be accessible even to those on the go. This means creating pages that can be adapted for phone-viewing. With this consistency, you are bound to draw too many kinds of users and even retain them!

Elements;

Screen resolution
While the web design might look appealing from your end, the end users might not enjoy good viewership of the same. Ensure screen resolutions are uptodate in new computer and device models. Therefore, it is crucial to be sure that the website will not appear pixilated when displayed on certain screen resolutions.

Offers functionality to the precise course it is serving
What will make your company or organization stand out is how well it depicts the core elements you are exposing to your audience. Borrowing an appealing website design will not be effective if it does not give enough space for you to feature your products or other mandates (like in the case of non-profit organizations).

Search Engine Optimizable
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is achieveble after the website has been created. It involves a mix of marketing strategies, it is important to bear its importance in mind during web creation. Think of all the features that a website should have for it is to be an SEO easily and make room for videos and pictures to come in handy. This should promote the website and make it appear at the top of search engine.

Consistency in the layout
This simply means that different pages of the website ought to have a uniform layout. Ensure the user understands the website and move with the flow. Also get to know what make a good website.
