Domaining Guide: Part 1 The Basics

Domains are web url’s, they point to servers which then displays the webpage. Google.com is a domain name. There are many companies you can register domains through, my opinion is stick to the more known and trusted businesses : NameCheap.com GoDaddy.com Name.com There is a reason for this besides the obvious security, trust, easy, most features etc. The reason is because when you purchase a domain name you have to wait up to 60 days before you can move it to another domain company. Don’t ge… Continue

Google Apps

Recently, I have been really getting addicted to using something called Google Apps. This is basically a mail system with many other features that you can use with your domain name. Not only do you get mail, you get docs, GTalk, and many more features. There are options to where you pay to get it and there are some options that are free. Of course, I get the free one. It is very simple to set up and is done within an hours time. If you want an easier way of accessing your email for your site, th… Continue

OpenDNS

Yesterday, on the unofficial Geeks.Pirillo.Com Ventrilo Server, I found out about something. A Friend of mine, called Chronidus, directed me to a service called OpenDNS. DNS stands for 'Domain Name Server'. Basically, when your Internet Browser, goes to a webpage, such as "http://Geeks.Pirillo.com/", it contacts your ISPs (Internet Service Provider, like Comcast, or FiOS) DNS. The DNS then proceeds to translate that text add… Continue
