Moving Your Web Site to a New Web Host

Switching Web Hosts

There are many reasons that may make you decide to switch to a new web host, from poor customer support or unreliable servers to that of needing additional features not supported by your current host.

The initial decision to swap may seem like a huge step and you can be forgiven for having a little trepidation, but if you follow the advice here you should find the transition to be so smooth that your customers/visitors will not even be aware you have switched.

Before you switch, ensure that the new host you have chosen can fulfil all the roles you expect of it, that your business has room to grow and the customer support, control panel and other features are to your liking once this has been established you should take out the new contract - note do not cancel your old contract yet, you should ensure that you have everything set up and running on your new server before you cancel your old contract. That way all you need to do is change your DNS and your site is up and running as soon as your domain is re-pointed.

Most web hosts will provide a means by which you can access your server before changing the DNS, you should be able to upload your site via ftp, access the control panel and use it to set up your site and email in preparation for activation.

Once all this has been achieved you are ready to re-point your domain to your new DNS, to do this you need to get the address of your new DNS there are generally two which should look like this:

N1.NEWHOST.COM
N2.NEWHOST.COM

It should be noted that it may take up to 72hrs before the whole switch is complete, as even if the Domain Name Server updates immediately (which is not usually the case) it takes time for the routers around the internet to update their DNS databases.

One your site is up and running and you are happy with it, you can cancel your old subscription.

This process if adhered to should result in a smooth swap with little or no down time as the routers will be sending your domain to either server and both of which have your web site on them.

    What is Microsoft Exchange Hosting?

    Microsoft Exchange Hosting is a platform for Exchange - a messaging and collaborative software product which allows users to access emails, contacts, calendar and other tasks remotely through Microsoft Outlook on a Blackberry, or other mobile device.

    In order for Exchange to work, it has to be 'hosted' through a Microsoft Exchange Server. This requires a modern, high performance server and software, which are both expensive to purchase and maintain.

    To access Exchange on a Blackberry, users also require a Blackberry Enterprise Server. The combined, typical set-up cost of this equipment is approximately 9,000. In addition to this, the server has to be maintained. Historically, this has meant that businesses either have to hire someone 'in-house' or contract an external IT company to do this for them. The typical cost of this can be anything from 5000 to 25000 per year.

    These figures have meant that before now, hosted exchange has been simply too costly for many businesses. This is where Genesis Communications can help.

    World of Warcraft is easily one of the most popular compute games to come along in this decade. That also happens to make World of Warcraft one of the most easily targeted instances of shortcuts and cheating by players around the world. Players who use cheats, hacks and scams are commonplace as they want to finish the game quicker and get further without putting in quite as much time.

    Blizzard has done their part to keep the use of these cheats and hacks to a minimum, and the terms of service that every player agrees to before logging into their accounts after an update outline exactly what might happen if a player cheats. Regardless, various World of Warcraft bots are used on a regular basis to make certain aspects of the game slightly easier.

    What is a Bot?

    A bot is essentially a simple piece of software that makes takes over the job of basic interaction between the game and player, cutting out a few of the less desirable tasks that players must perform to level up in World of Warcraft. Often, bots will bypass simple tasks such as fighting lower level characters or seeking out mining and herbalism veins.

    A player who has only put a couple of hours into World of Warcraft can reach level 60 or 70 with only the smallest input of time and energy. Of course, Blizzard immediately turns to crack down on this rampant use of Bots to cheat in World of Warcraft. Thousands of players have been banned outright for their use of Bots and the risk is still high for anyone still considering using one.

    The Long Term Effect of Bots

    Because theyve become a target for Blizzard, Bots have also started developing rapidly to overcome their detection methods and make it easier to track down and ban players who are cheating in World of Warcraft. This creates higher quality bots as well as third party services designed to offer the same quick leveling and gold creation services without the immediate risk of using software to cheat. Of course, those that use leveling services in World of Warcraft are just as at risk as anyone else of losing their account for cheating though it is slightly harder for Blizzard to track this activity.

    Ultimately, its important for you, as the gamer, to read through the Terms of Service every now and then to realize that many of the actions you might be considering are in fact no allowed. If you utilize these methods and your account is banned, the writing is right there telling you that you agreed not to do it. Its also important to realize when other players might be utilizing bots or cheating in World of Warcraft, especially if it is affecting you directly; then it is vital to inform someone of that activity.

    Do you know how you can change the content in the lockboxes? Or even getting +295 spell damage?

    It is not difficult and don't be the last to know about it!
