What software and hosting do I need to start an online community site where people can post articles or music?
What software and hosting do I need to start an online community site where people can post articles or music?
I’d like to start an online site like ezinearticles or other article posting site. What host and/or what software is required?
Also, I’d like to start an online site for musicians to post their songs and blogs.
What hosts do you recommend and what software or program for these? Thanks.
To clarify – I want to open a large site 1 – offering members a free webpage and the ability to submit many articles each, photos, and comments, etc., like ezinearticles.com or those others.
Also, for another site, 2 – I’d like to open a music site, where music artists can upload their own songs, videos and info, blogs,etc. sell music maybe, promote, add photos, and so on.
I’d like for each site to have all the modern features – is this a joomla site, I’m wondering? (Post nuke wouldn’t work for this, I’m told and not a wiki either, but I’d like to use an open source or a cheap,but reliable way to do this.)
Usually a host or server must be pretty large, depending upon the numbers. Upgrades are, of course, inevitable though.
Will I need a server of my own? Will I be able just to pay the host, get a software program, download one, like joomla or what ?
Any info on this? Thanks.
None of the hosting places suggested so far do anything of this kind.
Does Joomla ?
Does anyone know of any program, platform, or hosting place where I can go to start sites likes this?
Thanks again.

hosting…?
Hello, I want to know would it be ok to sell hosting of of the 1and1 Business package? I looked through their TOS and I didn’t see anything… Also is it possible to do it with my Cpanel? (and protect my site’s files) ..Thanks – Colin

How would you feel about hosting a foreign exchange student in your home?
I am directing this question not only at Americans but at all nationalities who might read the question and have thoughts about the subject.
This year my family is hosting two students, one from Germany and one from Hong Kong, both girls. In the past we have hosted two boys from Germany, one boy from Korea, and one girl each from Germany and Hong Kong. This is our third full year to host, and we also hosted for a partial year.
Our son was a foreign exchange student in Germany for a year.
We have had exceptional kids to work with. The experiences have been incredible and we are connected to all of our past and present kids.
Would you consider hosting a child from a foreign land?
I’m not recruiting, although my wife is coordinating placements and trying to recruit families in our local area. (South Texas.)
I was just interested in seeing what sort of response I would get from the Yahoo! Answers community. I expected some people to respond as you have, and I also expected some to say “no way,” and others to simply be curious about the programs.
From experience I can tell you that if you like young people and enjoy interacting with other cultures it is an experience difficult to match other than by doing a lot of traveling on your own.

I’m on my 13th! Our first just as an arrival family. I have four Danes, three Germans, two Swedes, two Swiss, one Finn and one Brasilian!
As you can tell, we love it. We’ve also had exceptional students to work with as well … and we wouldn’t trade any of them!
To top it all off, we spent our 25th anniversary on a three-week tour of Europe visiting many of them!
Hosting not only gives you a new son or daughter, but it gives you a whole new family as well!
The one thing that concerns me about your question however, is that it ALMOST seems like a recruitment of host families. I’m sure you really didn’t mean it that way, but I certainly would NOT be looking for families for students on the Internet!
Congratulations on your international family!

Hosting !!?
What business of hosting sites is better?
1And1.com or DreamHost.com?
What has a system of e-mail?
What has trânsferencia data faster?
Finally, the best?
Or another which is better than these two?
Thank you.

I think that Dreamhost is much better. 1and1 has awful customer service. Price vise they’re pretty close, although you can use a promo code PLUS with Dreamhost during sign up and get the $50 discount +2 Free domain names. It’s a much better deal than similar 1and1 plans.

What is the best web hosting for bloggers right now?
I want to start my own sports blog, and I need web hosting to do it. What is the best web hosting out there now? Are there any web hosts where you can preorder web hosting for someone else as a gift, or where you can buy a web hosting gift card? I might want web hosting for Christmas if it’s possible to do.
