By luring in new users with promises to protect their personal information, then selling that information to its advertisers, Facebook has taken advantage of its position to in effect make the users work for their advertisers for no reward. Most successful online media companies seem to operate from the desire to make the world a better place, but it seems Facebook is now revealling other plans - world domination! But given the histories of those who have been Facebook’s main investors, it is hardly surprising.

All social networking websites in effect make their money from advertisers whilst having their users do all the work by creating the content of the site. A refreshing alternative though has recently come to the attention of Newsphiles - Yuwie, a new site that actually shares a part of its advertising revenue with its users. Given its obvious differences to Facebook, we won’t be surprised if Yuwie becomes 2008’s cool site.

Needed are those few more advanced features that may differ in availability vs your wishes, like credit card clearance supported shopping cart. Unlimited Addon Domains - if this doesn’t exist the host will cash in on the transfers you most probably would like to do with previously acquired domains that you now want directed to your new server. Another feature could be 24/7 monitoring of the server hardware (techies on night-shift) which would assure a permanent competent service.

The best investment is in the actual people behind the scene rather than the gadgets. You want a dedicated, educated and genuinely inspired staff of engineers, who literally live for keeping the server technology at the promised level state of the art. People respecting the fact that server stability directly effects the clients public outlook, your biz!

In this article we mention some minimum requirements worth paying attention to. Most of the links are searches where the result will appear on our page using the CSE Google search script called: |Search with Qubetech.net|

Some minimum requirements
Account administration, like cPanel the standard admin panel or the less known server control panel called Ensim mainly used for Windows based hosting. You should have frontpage extensions, unlimited FTP Accounts, online file managers as well as full FTP access. E-mail (unlimited accounts), mailing lists, anti-spam systems, mobile services, MySQL and MyAdmin with unlimited databases, cronjobs.

Domain settings such as Unlimited Addon Domains AND unlimited domain parking. Addon Domains becomes indispensable when you acquire new domain names (and you will..). Allowing you to purchase domains where it’s cheapest then forward/park them to your server directed to any desired folder which will become the new ‘genuine’ root for the domain.

You should also look for:
Hosting where you can earn free hosting or money by joining an affiliate program. The host must have 24/7 FAQ and helpcenter, support notifications and full documentation as well as a forum for users to communicate with each other and the hosting staff.

They should:
include a good arsenal of PHP scripts (blogs, CMS) including an auto-installer (like fantastico), discussion boards, form-mail, e-Commerce, guestbooks, Image Galleries and polls. SSL (secure socket layer) and a general flare of emergency routines (backup of your files etc.) to assist you when something goes wrong.

More:
Unlimited sub-domains, Apache server based on a UNIX engine, Linux, PHP latest version, statistics (multiple options). Some hosts will give you a preview of their control panel. That’s an advantage that could benefit you, but only if you know what to look for

Choose right from the beginning:
Additionally there are some technical options one could demand (like ASP script support) all depending on your plans, previous experience and agenda. Large or medium size storage? There’s the reseller option, where you let out storage to your own clients etc. Just remember that migrating from one host to another is a time-consuming and sometimes costly experience you want to avoid. Choosing the right hosting solution from the start pays off..

If you, being in the position of webmaster, think this sounds like the right thing to do the Class B conversion is quite simple. All you need to do is to put the following code snippet into your .htaccess file located in the root directory of your site (changing the red text to match your domain).

RewriteEngine On
