Some Commonly Used Terms

Domain Name - A domain name is a specific URL, that you purchase and own for a specific period of time, commonly for 1, 2 or 3 years. This domain name can be renewed when the current term of ownership expires. It is the actual address that your visitors use to get to your pages. An example of a domain name is www.<yourbusiness>.com

Dedicated Web Host - Most ISPs provide web hosting services for a monthly fee above and beyond the standard charges of providing an internet connection. The web host provides a place on the internet (server) where your web pages reside. You should check with your own ISP to detemine if this option is the most cost effective for you.

FTP (File Transfer Protocol) - is the format used in the Internet for sending files between two computers.

Internet - A global network connecting millions of computers. Each Internet computer, called a host, is independent. Internet users can choose which Internet service provider to use.

ISP Personal Web Space - Most ISPs run Web Servers that allow 5-10 MB of personal web space for each of their subscribers to place their own Web pages on a server. For anyone that already has an Internet connection through an ISP, consider having your web pages stored here. This is a great low-cost alternative to paying for web hosting services.

Other Web Space Providers - There are many other web space providers on the Internet that provide either free or low cost web space. For only a minimal cost, you can have a significantly higher amount of free web space (20MB-50MB) that you can get with the ISP alone. However, most of the free services usually require a banner ad on your page(s). However, if you can live with the ad, you have a low cost web presence! Most of the lower cost options are free of advertising, however. Again, a little research on your part will have a potentially big payoff in cost savings.

URL - is your web site address. When anyone logs on to the internet, in order to get to a specific web site they need to type in a specific Internet address (also know as a URL, which stands for Universal Resource Locator). This is similar to dialing a certain set of numbers on a telephone to call a specific individual.

NOTE: You are responsible for purchasing and maintaining your own domain. I do not offer domain management services or web site hosting, only web site development, design and maintenance.

	A Web Server - (required if you host your own web pages) A Web Server is a computer network where your web pages are held and displayed on the internet.
