Fire Your Web Host
Have you been fighting the website wars for a couple of years now and you seem to be going nowhere? Do you not get the support from your web host that you feel you need to succeed? Well, fire your web host and find one that will help you succeed.
There seem to be an infinite number of web hosts on the Internet. It is impossible to really get a fix on the number since new ones enter the market and soon disappear. It is an extremely competitive market.
You probably picked your web host based on a review that you read on the Net. It showed how many gigabytes of storage and how much bandwidth the host provided for a low price and you signed up.
Unfortunately, the technical specs for a web host are not the best way to evaluate the best web host.
You should demand much more from a web host if you expect to succeed in the competitive environment of the Internet (and the competition becomes fiercer each year).
The main attribute that separates the best web host from the "also rans" is a research tool that allows you to perform detailed prior planning of your keywords and to research the competition. You need to know how difficult it will be to place on the first search engine results page for your keywords before you start the battle.
I remember a saying that goes something like this, "if you are going to fight a battle, be sure to pick the ground on which you are going to fight it". This planning helps you pick "your battleground on the Internet".
Another thing that you should demand from your web host is automatic creation of site maps for your website and automatic pinging of Google, Yahoo, and Ask. You do not have time to ping three search engines each time you update or add a page to your website. This is an important little detail that make a significant difference in how your web pages rank with the search engines.
Does your current web host have a tool that reviews your web pages and makes recommendations for improvement to make them search engine friendly? The best web host provides this type of a tool. When you complete a page you submit it to the tool. It suggests changes to improve the page from a search engine prospective. This is very helpful to get your pages ranked high on the search engines. It makes the difference between traffic and no traffic on your site.
Does your web host provide these services? If not, fire your web host and find the best web host that will provide these services for you.
http://www.the-best-web-host.com/ will help you find the best web host.
Good luck in finding the best web host for your website. I wish you success.

Definition of Site Build It
Site Build It is a very successful web host on the Internet. It is really much more than just a web host. Here is the definition of Site Build It.
Writing a definition of Site Build It is a challenge since it is so many different things combined under one name. To define SBI, I prefer to step back away from the Internet and the technology and define it as a business model or business system. There are several definitions of system:
• a group of independent but interrelated elements comprising a unified whole.
• a procedure or process for obtaining an objective
• organization: an ordered manner; orderliness by virtue of being methodical and well organized.
• a group of elements, components, or devices that are assembled to serve a common purpose. In a technological system, this refers to all hardware, software, networks, cables, peripheral equipment, information, data, personnel, and procedures (ie, all technology resources) that comprise a computer environment.
All of these apply to SBI. Too many people only associate SBI with web hosting. In their minds, SBI provides memory on a server, bandwidth for access, and software to create and post web pages for access on the Internet. SBI is so much more than that. It is a system or method for creating successful businesses. It just happens that the Internet is the medium used to make these businesses successful.
Another definition of a system is a collection of people, processes, procedures, and equipment working in unison to achieve a goal. This definition also applies to SBI.
• The people are the owners of the SBI sites and the SBI staff working as one to maximize the results for the web site owner and make a profit for SBI.
• The processes are composed of the structured market research before a domain name can be selected, the structured brainstorming and development of keywords for the future website, the 10 day Action Guide in written or video format for developing the successful business, the monetization module for finding the best methods to generate income from traffic to the website, the SBI forums where SBI owners help and are helped. This structure makes SBI the ideal business model for an inexperienced person.
• The procedures are the rules for using the SBI hosting hardware and software. SBI hosting is a controlled procedure. It does not allow server side applications and limits the types of files it will host. However, this structure allows SBI to monitor the activity of the search engine spiders, monitor search engine page rank, automatically update RSS feeds, automatically update site maps, and provides many more benefits to the SBI website owner.
• The equipment is composed of the personal computer of the SBI website owner and the equipment in the web hosting data center plus all the Internet communication equipment that connects the two and the rest of the world.
The key point to take away from this article- SBI is a business system, not just a web host. For more information, download my free ebook at http://www.sbi-guru.com I wish you well with building your future website.

CRON – Automatically Run Jobs on Your Website
Sometimes you have repetitive jobs to run on your website. Most web servers have a function that will schedule and run jobs automatically for you. Just set up the schedule and let it run on autopilot.
CRON is a function in Unix and Linux operating systems which allows you to schedule a job and the job will run at the date and time scheduled until you delete the CRON statement.
Initially, you may consider this to be too technical for you, but not so if you will carefully read this article. It is a function of which you should be aware. Even if you do not need it now, remember about CRON for the day you will need it.
Apache server includes this function and it is easy to use with the graphical interface.
The format for CRON is “CRON * * * * * Command to execute"
Each asterisk represents a field in the command and can contain the following values. If you do not want to specify a value for that particular field, leave the asterisk in that position in the CRON statement line. Each of the five fields is separated by white space.
Here are the values that each field (left to right) can have other than the asterisk:
Field -------- Value ----- Description
minute ----- 00-59 ------exact minute the cron executes
hour -------- 00-23 ------ hour of the day the cron executes(0 =midnight)
day --------- 01-31 ------ day of the month the cron executes
month ------ 01-12 ------ month of the year the cron executes
weekday --- 00-06 ----- ay of the week the cron executes(Sunday = 0, Monday = 1, Tuesday = 2, etc)
command ---varies ------ sequence of commands to execute
What prompted the need for the CRON on our site was our use of the software package that required that we copy the ClickBank master file into a file on the Boomer-eZine website periodically so our copy is kept current with the ClickBank master.
Since we get busy and forget to do this weekly, a method to have our web host perform this automatically was the answer.
The CRON function is very flexible and can be set to run on almost any time frequency you can imagine.
If you specify a minute in the first field and an hour (24 hour clock) in the second field and leave all the other fields as asterisks, the specified program will run on that hour and minute every day. If you want the program to run twice a day at 10 and 11 AM, you can write the CRON as:
CRON 0 10,11 * * * Command to execute
With the proper combinations, you can set up a job to run automatically on almost any schedule that you can imagine.
Let’s try a few. Write a CRON to execute on every Sunday at midnight.
If you got “0 0 * * 0 Command to execute", then you are right. The zero in the first position is on the hour. The zero in the second position is midnight. The zero in the fifth position (day of the week) is Sunday. This is what we used for our CRON settings for the CD AD Box update.
Set up a CRON to run once per year on the last day of the year at midnight.
CRON 0 0 31 12 * Command to execute
If you have a graphical interface on your web server, it is easy to enter the CRON information
Sometimes the CRON function is difficult to find in your control panel. If you have difficulty finding it, send an email to the support group for your web host and ask if this is available and if so, where is it located.
As I said earlier, you may not need this right now, but remember it for when it will come in handy for you. It can greatly simplify the work of managing your website.
