#Linux hosting account

[the-64th-gamer]

I feel like the last year has been a great push for me to slowly detach myself from giant companies and ensure what I do is in my control and ownership

Finally switched over to linux permanently

switched to firefox

enabled adblocker, sponsor blockers, and tracker removers

disabled autoplay and the recommendations sidebar on YouTube (highly highly encourage, though I still keep the homepage open so I can choose when to browse new suggested content rather than it pestering me)

downloaded all my tumblr posts and now host them parallel on my website (stuck here until we find some decentralized way of doing social media right)

cleared out 99% of my online storage to now be on multiple hard-drive backups

downloaded locally all my music

removed myself from basically every data tracking social media platform except this and YouTube

And now currently I'm trying to consolidate all my feeds into just an RSS reader.

It takes a long time and a lot of planning, but its very rewarding to take control over what you want to see, how you see it, how its formatted, ect. I find these are my steps to an easy transition off a certain service:

Download all your data and back it up. Now your account can be deleted at any time with no remorse.

Find browser extensions that enhance and modify the experience to what you might need. Use that to tangibly guide your preferences. Go ahead and remove the app on your phone if its there.

Research every alternative service and try them out. Begin moving certain activity exclusively to the alternative. Take time getting used to it and see if its better to try more alternatives.

Completely jump ship, delete the account, move all feeds or settings over.

Its an ongoing process but there's still probably a few more years of this to go through. Future plans are:

Completely remove all prior emails and self host a new one

Get off Discord entirely except for running the wiki server. It sucks that Discord is so prevalent. Probably move to various forums. Maybe look into some sort of forum management software such as how RSS feeds tame articles and videos into one place.

Setup adblockers directly into my router so ads won't even appear on phones.

Setup my phone to just straight up also run linux. There's a few mobile-designed linux platforms to look into until I decide.

putting together a list of free file sharing/hosting/storage services here for personal use bc i keep meaning to and forgetting 📁 [WIP]

(for personal use but suggestions very welcome as I’m looking to expand the list, my only real requirements are that it’s 100% free (OR has a usable 100% free version that’s not just a free trial and doesn’t require credit card info or anything else that would force you to pay under certain circumstances) and that it’s trustworthy/not sketchy)

Hosting-oriented

file.garden: requires account, made for hosting/linking-back-to but can still be used for rudimentary file storage, ability to use folders and make individual files private and unlisted, unlimited storage afaik, does not work well on mobile

Storage-oriented

Google drive: self explanatory, requires Google account, 15GB of free storage but payment needed for any more

Proton Drive: requires account, haven’t used this one personally, 5GB of free storage but any more is paid, encryption options are apparently really good, have heard complaints about lack of Linux support and file syncing issues

One-time file sharing-oriented

file.pizza: no account required, p2p in-browser file sharing by link, password protection available, highly convenient

Other (or, fulfills multiple of the above criteria)

4shared: the world’s largest file locker, very old and has weird limits to keep in mind, account required, notably the entirety of it is searchable but password protection is available, can upload files of up to 500MB each (5GB if subscribed), daily bandwidth limit of 3GB

MEGA.nz: file locker, 20GB free plan, account needed, end-to-end encryption available, pretty dang good

Tixte: file hosting/sharing service, requires an account, 15gb free plan, ability to make files public or private

Alternatives that were not made for the purpose of file storage/hosting/management/sharing but can still be used for said purposes

Pinterest: it is worth noting that if you need a place to throw some random files, Pinterest can work for that, it can majorly compress images and no longer supports GIF uploads but if you have a bunch of screenshots you need to throw somewhere you can easily make a private Pinterest board and upload them to it and no one else will be able to access it, requires an email address

Please help me expand this list! Keep in mind that I haven’t used all of these personally so lmk me if any of these descriptions are misleading or inaccurate.

Again, this was made with my own file storage needs in mind so please forgive me if they don’t exactly fit your own, I just wanted to catalogue these in one place for if I ever needed or if they’d help anyone else

BatB Week podfic instructions and tips

Thanks to everyone who signed up for the podfic exchange! If you signed up as a reader, you should have gotten a message with info on who you matched with. Send a DM if you missed the message.

(If you didn’t sign up, there is still time! We still need one more podficcer! The form to sign up is here.)

I don’t personally do voice/audio work, but I’ve pulled together some quick tips and instructions for recording, editing, and posting podfics below the cut. If someone else has better/more suggestions, please add on!

Recording and editing

Need audio recording/editing software? You don't need anything fancy; you can record it on whatever voice recording software comes installed on your phone (I have Samsung Voice Recorder, for instance), or use one of these free, beginner-friendly audio editors: Lexis Audio Editor (Android, iOS, Windows), Audacity (Windows, Mac, Linux), GarageBand (Mac), Audiotool (online).

Nastasia Marquez has a great tutorial on how to record and edit voiceovers for beginners in Audacity. It's very easy to follow along and gets straight to the point.

When recording, watch out for plosives and sibilances (e.g. your "pps," "sss," and "shh") as they can easily hinder the quality of your recording by being aggressive to the ear. It’s hard to give tips since everyone will be working with different devices, but my suggestion would be to put some space between your mouth and the microphone, or have your device inside a sock. You can learn more on them and how to deal with them here.

A good way to get clean audio is to record under a blanket. It’s silly, but it’s as close to a padded studio as you can get for free. It reduces echo and makes the audio sound much better no matter the mic you use.

Don't be afraid to record in short batches! There’s no need to do it in long unbroken takes. Piece it together later.

Posting the audio file

Once you have your finished audio file, you have to upload it somewhere, because AO3 can host the link to it, but not the audio file itself. It seems like Internet Archive is popular for hosting podfic audio files. You can also host it on Google Drive, YouTube, Mediafire, or Spotify.

Posting the podfic to AO3

Go to ‘Post > New work’ just like you would for posting any fic to AO3.

In the ‘Post to Collections / Challenges’ field, enter “beauty_beast_week_2025” (see first screenshot below).

Check the box that reads ‘This work is a remix, a translation, a podfic, or was inspired by another work’ and include the URL to the original fic (see first screenshot below). This not only gives credit to and notifies the author, but it adds a link to your podfic from their fic (when they approve it) so that your podfic gets more hits and kudos.

In the body of the post, insert the HTML to embed the audio file (see second screenshot below). It’s easy: AO3 has a simple guide to copy and paste from here.

If you’d like, you can add more content to the body of the post, like the event banner or some text, but it’s not necessary.

Here are some examples of BatB podfics so you can see how they’ve set things up: The Great Wide Somewhere, Mutual Care, and The Beast Within

Posting to the event

Important: tag the @beauty-beast-week account within the body of your Tumblr post itself by typing the @ symbol, typing beauty-beast-week, and then selecting that account name from the autocomplete menu that appears. This is the only way to be sure we see your post so we can reblog it from this account and include it in our master list posts.

Other than that, make sure you post to Tumblr on the day of the prompt you're using and include in your post:

Tag the @beauty-beast-week account within the body of the post (yes, I’m repeating myself)

Which fic your podfic is for, and link to it

Which day/prompt your podfic is for, in the body or tags

The event hashtag #batbweek and/or #batbweek 2025

Any other appropriate hashtags (characters, ship, NSFW and content warnings)

Optional: The event banner (save from the top of this post) or the day's banner (in the full event instructions that will come later)

Heads up authors! Check your AO3 email during the event!

If your work was adapted into a podfic for the exchange, check your email and follow the link to approve linking back the podfic to your original work so more people can discover the podfic version!

Send an ask or DM if you have any problems or questions!

[not-poignant]

Hi Pia.

I want to ask— do you backup your wips? How do you do it?

I know there are things like Cloud and Dropbox but those are practically at the mercy of big corporations and with ai scraping now being the norm it feels risky saving work with online backup.

Do you use a USB instead?

Unfortunately nothing is risk-free these days.

I once saved a story to three different USBs, all different brands, and they all corrupted. Not all at the same time, but they all eventually lost the data. This was over a period of ten years, but of course some people have been relying on USBs etc. for this long now. Same with CDs burnt with data (something we used to do before USBs were cheap).

In fact a new study shows that over half of all external hard drives and USBs over a certain age (I think around 5 years) are already corrupted and often not being checked enough to check if they're still containing/keeping the data necessary. (To say nothing of entire batches of like Seagate and other brands being notorious for literally just...losing data and corrupting at any point in time - which is an issue for actual hard drives within the computer as well).

USBs and external HDs aren't necessarily safer.

In general it's a good idea to back up in three places, though this still isn't enough to guarantee safety. Those three places should be: a) hard copy (i.e. USB or external hard-drive), b) cloud copy (i.e. Dropbox etc.), c) on the machine itself (if it's a desktop). You can sometimes do like, a + a + c or b + b + a etc.

It still doesn't guarantee preservation of data! I think that's the hardest thing about preserving data and back-ups overall.

I have an extra bonus 'back up' in that 99.5% of all my writing is already public. And that a lot of that writing has additionally been snapshotted into the Wayback Machine. If all my methods somehow corrupted or failed, I could literally copy/paste my stories from AO3 back into Word documents (in fact I've actually done this before because I frequently go back in and edit AO3 chapters for typos etc. but don't mirror those changes in the original documents, so sometimes if I want to update a story, I'll copy/paste the AO3 chapter and override the original document).

Anyway, I use Dropbox Business (cloud), hard external copy (though not as often as I should), desktop version, and then also the AO3 version. Dropbox Business has additional data recovery protections that general Dropbox accounts don't.

We are always at the mercy of big corporations, anon. Big corporations make USBs. They make faulty external hard-drives that we sometimes mistakenly trust. Like no, they're not scraping for AI the same way, but I no longer believe - unfortunately - that this is truly preventable. Short of going a grassroots Linux direction, which...I can't, lol.

(This is a reminder to all writers: Back-up your writing! The beginning of the year is a good time to remember to do it, if you're not doing it every 3 months).

(And also, check all your USB/external hard drives! And make sure they're not your only source for that content, because you would not believe how much they degrade over time.)

If I ever needed a 5th option, I host my own domain and have done so through the same company for over 10 years with very high fidelity, and I would just dump it all into a database there so I could pull it back if necessary. That's not ideal (it's probably the easiest way I could be hacked because I check into the cpanel the least often), but it's doable.

But yeah I've been Dropbox Business for a long time. I don't like everything about them, but I trust them a lot more than Microsoft OneDrive (which I refuse to use) and many other cloud networks.

As for AI scraping, since 99.5% of my stuff is on AO3, it's already been scraped, and it's delusional of me to think it hasn't been. I have already had the majority of my art scraped into Midjourney, so sadly I've reached a level of disgusted acceptance that the gormless unethical billionaires of the world will just do what they want. If it has an internet connection to it, it's probably been scraped or will be scraped and putting something on a USB isn't going to stop that, because it needs to come off a USB if I want to work on an ongoing story.

On the 9th of January 2025, I saw an article in my latest copy of Computer Active which explains about mastering Linux distros.

It suggested using a website called 'Distrosea' which hosts free virtual machines of various flavours of the Linux operating system, all of which can be ran within a browser window.

Visit the site here:

https://distrosea.com/

Here is a list of the Linux distros I had a go at running with their desktop environments:

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS - GNOME

Ubuntu 8.10 - GNOME 2 (old, 2008)

Linux Mint 22 - Cinnamon, Ubuntu base

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS - Cinnamon

Fedora Linux 40 - MATE

OpenSUSE Leap 15.5 - KDE

Alma Linux 9 - GNOME

Debian Linux 12.5 - LXqt (lightweight)

Zorin OS 17 Core64 - GNOME (configurable)

There are a total of 71 Linux operating systems to try on the website at the time of this write up.

To install, update and manage software on Linux using a package manager, the distros mentioned on this list based on Debian & Ubuntu use the APT (Advanced Package Tool) and the distros based on Fedora & Red Hat use the DNF (Dandified Yellow-Dog Updater Modified) package managers.

Their are many other types of package managers for Linux. Since Windows 11, users can choose to install software using UnigetUI (a.k.a Winget commands).

About Distrosea:

When you click on any of the distro entries before selecting a desktop environment, you can read a great description of the background information for each.

I think this website is amazing as it allows you to test distros in your browser without the need to plug in a USB or use virtual machine software. basically it gives you a live install copy of Linux to try online for free. It profits from ads shown on its homepage.

Some of the distros have a 'popular' badge, to show which ones are most likely to have more online traffic. Most of these distros are updated to latest versions available.

When you run the operating systems the system information dialogue will contain the server CPU information and displays the virtual graphics card called Red Hat, Inc Virtio 1.0 GPU.

However the site uses limited user traffic to reduce load on the servers, so when you select a version of Linux, there is a queue system. Each session is free, however it is timed when idle to create space for another user. Also the server connection, which is based in India, can disconnect you from your testing frequency, so whilst it works well you have to reset your VM which will continue where you last left off.

Also some of the Linux distros didn't automatically scale to full screen, and so leave bars at the top and bottom of the screen. The old Ubuntu remains surrounded by a large bar around itself as no modern drivers will work with this old version of Ubuntu.

You can sign into your Google account and gain internet access in your VMs as well.

Read the developers notes on Reddit:

https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/139sj6z/distrosea_test_drive_linux_distros_online/?rdt=33513

I would recommend trying this out on a large computer screen as the distros take advantage of hardware acceleration, scaling and look great in full screen mode!

Watch this Distrosea video on YouTube to see it in action!

Remember that this is another way of testing Linux through the internet, the experience will be different if it is installed on an actual computer.

What Is Linux Web Hosting? A Beginner's Guide

In the ever-evolving digital landscape, the choice of web hosting can significantly impact your online presence. One of the most popular options available is Linux web hosting. But what exactly does it entail, and why is it so widely preferred? This beginner’s guide aims to demystify Linux web hosting, its features, benefits, and how it stands against other hosting types.

Introduction to Web Hosting

Web hosting is a fundamental service that enables individuals and organisations to make their websites accessible on the internet. When you create a website, it consists of numerous files, such as HTML, images, and databases, which need to be stored on a server. A web host provides the server space and connectivity required for these files to be accessed by users online.

There are several types of web hosting, each designed to cater to different needs and budgets. Shared hosting is a cost-effective option where multiple websites share the same server resources. Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting offers a middle ground, providing dedicated portions of a server for greater performance and control. Dedicated hosting provides an entire server exclusively for one website, ensuring maximum performance but at a higher cost. Cloud hosting uses multiple servers to balance the load and maximise uptime, offering a scalable solution for growing websites.

Web hosting services also include various features to enhance the performance and security of your website. These can range from basic offerings like email accounts and website builders to more advanced features like SSL certificates, automated backups, and DDoS protection. The choice of web hosting can significantly influence your website’s speed, security, and reliability, making it crucial to choose a solution that aligns with your specific requirements.

Understanding the different types of web hosting and the features they offer can help you make an informed decision that suits your needs. Whether you are running a personal blog, a small business website, or a large e-commerce platform, selecting the right web hosting service is a critical step in establishing a successful online presence.

What Is Linux Web Hosting?

Linux web hosting is a type of web hosting service that utilises the Linux operating system to manage and serve websites. Renowned for its open-source nature, Linux provides a stable and secure platform that supports a wide array of programming languages and databases, making it a favoured choice amongst developers and businesses. This hosting environment typically includes support for popular technologies such as Apache web servers, MySQL databases, and PHP scripting, which are integral to modern website development.

One of the distinguishing features of Linux web hosting is its cost-effectiveness. As an open-source system, Linux eliminates the need for costly licensing fees associated with proprietary software, thereby reducing overall hosting expenses. This makes it an attractive option for individuals and organisations operating on a budget.

Moreover, Linux is celebrated for its robust performance and high stability. Websites hosted on Linux servers experience less downtime and faster loading times, which are critical factors for maintaining user engagement and search engine rankings. The operating system’s extensive community of developers continuously works on updates and improvements, ensuring that Linux remains a cutting-edge choice for web hosting.

Linux web hosting also offers considerable flexibility and customisation options. Users have the freedom to configure their hosting environment to meet specific needs, whether they are running simple static websites or complex dynamic applications. This versatility extends to compatibility with various content management systems (CMS) like WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal, which often perform optimally on Linux servers.

In summary, Linux web hosting provides a reliable, secure, and cost-effective solution that caters to a diverse range of web hosting requirements. Its compatibility with essential web technologies and its inherent flexibility make it a preferred choice for many web developers and site owners.

Key Benefits of Linux Web Hosting

Linux web hosting offers several compelling advantages that contribute to its widespread adoption. One of its primary benefits is cost-effectiveness. The open-source nature of Linux eliminates the need for expensive licensing fees, allowing users to allocate their resources more efficiently. This makes it an ideal choice for individuals and organisations with budget constraints. Additionally, Linux is celebrated for its high stability and robust performance. Websites hosted on Linux servers often experience minimal downtime and faster loading speeds, which are essential for maintaining user engagement and achieving favourable search engine rankings.

Another significant benefit is the extensive community support that comes with Linux. The active community of developers and enthusiasts continuously works on updates, patches, and security enhancements, ensuring that Linux remains a secure and reliable platform for web hosting. This ongoing development also means that any issues or vulnerabilities are promptly addressed, offering peace of mind for website owners.

Flexibility is another key advantage of Linux web hosting. The operating system supports a wide range of programming languages, including PHP, Python, and Ruby, making it suitable for various types of web applications. Additionally, Linux servers are highly customisable, allowing users to configure their environment to meet specific needs, whether they are running simple static sites or complex dynamic applications.

Moreover, Linux web hosting is highly compatible with popular content management systems (CMS) like WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal. This compatibility ensures that users can easily deploy and manage their websites using these platforms, benefiting from their extensive plugin and theme ecosystems.

Lastly, Linux's superior security features are worth noting. The operating system is inherently secure and offers various built-in security measures. When combined with best practices such as regular updates and strong passwords, Linux web hosting provides a highly secure environment for any website.

Understanding Linux Distributions in Web Hosting

Linux comes in a variety of distributions, each tailored to meet specific needs and preferences. Among the most popular for web hosting are Ubuntu, CentOS, and Debian. Ubuntu is celebrated for its ease of use and extensive community support, making it a great choice for those new to Linux. CentOS, a favourite in enterprise environments, offers impressive stability and long-term support, which ensures a dependable hosting experience. Debian stands out with its robust package management system and commitment to open-source principles, providing a reliable and secure foundation.

Each distribution brings its own strengths to the table. For example, Ubuntu’s frequent updates ensure access to the latest features and security patches, while CentOS’s extended support cycles make it a solid choice for those requiring a stable, long-term hosting environment. Debian’s extensive repository of packages and minimalistic approach offers flexibility and customisation, catering to the needs of experienced users.

Selecting the right Linux distribution largely depends on your specific requirements and technical expertise. If you prioritise user-friendliness and a wealth of resources for troubleshooting, Ubuntu might be the ideal pick. On the other hand, if you need a rock-solid, stable platform for an enterprise-level application, CentOS could be more appropriate. For those seeking maximum control and a commitment to open-source principles, Debian is a compelling option.

Ultimately, understanding the nuances of these distributions will enable you to choose a Linux environment that aligns with your web hosting needs, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.

Linux Hosting vs Windows Hosting: A Comparative Analysis

When evaluating Linux hosting against Windows hosting, several critical factors come into play. Cost is a significant differentiator; Linux hosting is generally more affordable due to its open-source nature, which eliminates the need for expensive licensing fees. In contrast, Windows hosting often incurs additional costs related to proprietary software licenses.

Compatibility is another important aspect to consider. Linux hosting is renowned for its compatibility with a broad array of open-source software and applications, including popular content management systems like WordPress, Joomla, and Magento. These platforms typically perform better on Linux servers due to optimised server configurations. On the other hand, Windows hosting is the go-to option for websites that rely on Microsoft-specific technologies such as ASP.NET, MSSQL, and other .NET frameworks.

Performance and stability are also crucial elements in this comparison. Linux hosting often provides superior uptime and faster loading speeds due to the lightweight nature of the Linux operating system. The robust performance of Linux servers is further enhanced by the active community that continuously works on optimisations and security patches. Windows hosting, while also reliable, can sometimes be more resource-intensive, potentially affecting performance.

Customisation and control levels differ significantly between the two. Linux offers greater flexibility and customisation options, allowing users to tweak server settings and configurations extensively. This level of control is particularly beneficial for developers who need a tailored hosting environment. Conversely, Windows hosting is typically easier to manage for those familiar with the Windows operating system but may offer less flexibility in terms of customisation.

Security measures also vary between Linux and Windows hosting. Linux is often praised for its strong security features, which are bolstered by a large community dedicated to promptly addressing vulnerabilities. While Windows hosting is secure, it may require more frequent updates and maintenance to ensure the same level of protection.

Common Use Cases for Linux Web Hosting

Linux web hosting is versatile and caters to a broad range of applications, making it a popular choice across various sectors. One of the most common use cases is hosting blogs and personal websites, particularly those built on platforms like WordPress. The open-source nature of Linux and its compatibility with PHP make it an ideal environment for WordPress, which powers a significant portion of the web.

E-commerce websites also benefit greatly from Linux web hosting. Solutions like Magento, PrestaShop, and OpenCart often perform better on Linux servers due to their need for a robust, secure, and scalable hosting environment. The flexibility to configure server settings allows online store owners to optimise performance and ensure a smooth shopping experience for their customers.

Content Management Systems (CMS) such as Joomla and Drupal are another prime use case. These systems require reliable and flexible hosting solutions to manage complex websites with large amounts of content. Linux's support for various databases and scripting languages ensures seamless integration and optimal performance for CMS-based sites.

Developers frequently turn to Linux web hosting for custom web applications. The operating system supports a variety of programming languages, including Python, Ruby, and Perl, making it suitable for a wide array of development projects. Its command-line interface and extensive package repositories allow developers to install and manage software efficiently.

Additionally, Linux web hosting is commonly used for educational and non-profit websites. The low cost and high reliability make it a practical choice for schools, universities, and charitable organisations that need a dependable online presence without breaking the bank.

Setting Up a Linux Web Hosting Environment

Setting up a Linux web hosting environment can be straightforward with the right approach. Begin by selecting a reputable hosting provider that offers Linux-based plans. After signing up, you'll typically be granted access to a control panel, such as cPanel or Plesk, which simplifies the management of your hosting environment. Through the control panel, you can manage files, databases, email accounts, and more.

Next, if you're using a content management system (CMS) like WordPress, Joomla, or Drupal, you can often find one-click installation options within the control panel. This feature makes it easy to get your website up and running quickly. Additionally, ensure that you configure your domain name to point to your new hosting server, which usually involves updating your domain's DNS settings.

For those who prefer more control or are comfortable using the command line, you can manually set up your web server using SSH access. This method allows you to install and configure web server software like Apache or Nginx, as well as databases such as MySQL or PostgreSQL.

Regardless of the setup method you choose, it's crucial to secure your server from the outset. This includes setting up a firewall, enabling SSH key authentication for secure access, and regularly updating all software to protect against vulnerabilities. Regularly monitoring your server's performance and security logs can help you stay ahead of potential issues, ensuring a stable and secure hosting environment for your website.

Security Best Practices for Linux Web Hosting

Securing your Linux web hosting environment is paramount to safeguarding your website against potential threats. Begin by ensuring your server software and all installed applications are up to date. Regular updates often include patches for security vulnerabilities, making this a critical step. Utilise strong, unique passwords for all user accounts, and consider employing SSH key authentication for added security when accessing your server remotely.

Setting up a firewall is another essential measure. Tools like iptables or firewalld can help you configure firewall rules to control incoming and outgoing traffic, thereby reducing the risk of unauthorised access. Implementing intrusion detection systems (IDS), such as Fail2Ban, can provide an additional layer of security by monitoring and blocking suspicious activities.

Consider deploying an SSL certificate to encrypt data transmitted between your server and users' browsers. This not only enhances security but also boosts user trust and can improve your search engine rankings. Additionally, limit the use of root privileges; create separate user accounts with the necessary permissions to minimise potential damage in the event of a breach.

Regularly backup your data to mitigate the impact of data loss due to hardware failure, cyber-attacks, or human error. Automated backup solutions can simplify this process, ensuring your data is consistently protected. Monitoring your server's logs can also be invaluable for identifying unusual activity early. Tools like Logwatch or the ELK Stack can assist in log management and analysis, enabling you to take swift action if anomalies are detected.

Common Challenges and How to Overcome Them

Setting up and maintaining a Linux web hosting environment can present various challenges, especially for those new to the platform. One frequent issue is navigating the command line, which can be daunting for beginners. Engaging with online tutorials, forums, and communities like Stack Overflow can be invaluable for learning the basics and troubleshooting problems. Another common challenge is software incompatibility. Ensuring your web applications are compatible with the Linux distribution you choose is crucial; consulting documentation and support resources can help mitigate these issues.

Security configuration can also be a complex task. Implementing best practices such as setting up firewalls, regular updates, and using strong authentication methods requires a good understanding of Linux security principles. Managed hosting services can offer a solution here by handling these technical aspects for you, allowing you to focus on your website content.

Resource management is another area where users might struggle. Monitoring server performance and managing resources effectively ensures your website runs smoothly. Utilising monitoring tools and performance optimisation techniques can help you stay ahead of potential issues. Lastly, when it comes to server backups, regular, automated solutions are essential to prevent data loss and minimise downtime. Being proactive in addressing these challenges will ensure a more seamless and secure Linux web hosting experience.

Popular Control Panels for Linux Web Hosting

Control panels are invaluable for simplifying the management of your Linux web hosting environment. Among the most popular are cPanel, Plesk, and Webmin. cPanel is renowned for its intuitive interface and extensive feature set, making it a favourite among users who need a straightforward yet powerful management tool. Plesk offers robust functionality and supports both Linux and Windows servers, providing versatility for those who manage multiple server environments. Webmin stands out as a free, open-source option that allows comprehensive server management through a web interface, catering to those who prefer a customisable and cost-effective solution. Each control panel brings unique strengths, helping to streamline tasks such as file management, database administration, and security configurations.

Choosing the Right Linux Web Hosting Provider

Choosing the right Linux web hosting provider involves several key considerations. Firstly, evaluate the quality of customer support offered. Responsive and knowledgeable support can be invaluable, especially when troubleshooting technical issues or during the initial setup phase. Check if the provider offers 24/7 support and multiple contact methods such as live chat, email, and phone.

Another crucial factor is the security measures in place. Opt for providers that offer robust security features, including regular backups, SSL certificates, firewalls, and DDoS protection. These features help safeguard your website against potential threats and ensure data integrity.

Reliability and uptime guarantees are also vital. Aim for providers that offer at least a 99.9% uptime guarantee, as frequent downtimes can significantly affect your website’s accessibility and user experience. Additionally, look into the provider’s data centre infrastructure and redundancy measures, which can impact overall performance and reliability.

Scalability is another important aspect to consider. As your website grows, you’ll need the flexibility to upgrade your hosting plan seamlessly. Check if the provider offers scalable solutions, such as easy transitions to VPS or dedicated hosting, without causing disruptions to your site.

Lastly, consider the hosting plans and pricing structures available. While cost-effectiveness is a significant benefit of Linux web hosting, ensure the plans align with your specific needs. Compare the features, storage, bandwidth, and other resources included in different plans to find the best value for your money.

Reading customer reviews and seeking recommendations can also provide insights into the provider’s reputation and service quality. By carefully evaluating these factors, you can choose a Linux web hosting provider that meets your requirements and supports your online endeavours effectively.

Conclusion and Final Thoughts

Linux web hosting stands out as an optimal choice for both beginners and seasoned web developers. Its open-source nature provides an affordable, highly customisable, and secure environment, suitable for a diverse range of websites, from personal blogs to large e-commerce platforms. The extensive community support ensures ongoing improvements and prompt resolution of issues, contributing to its reliability and performance. Choosing the right hosting provider is crucial; look for robust security measures, excellent customer support, and scalability to accommodate your website's growth. By leveraging the strengths of Linux web hosting, you can build a resilient and efficient online presence that meets your specific needs and goals.

Amazon DCV 2024.0 Supports Ubuntu 24.04 LTS With Security

NICE DCV is a different entity now. Along with improvements and bug fixes, NICE DCV is now known as Amazon DCV with the 2024.0 release.

The DCV protocol that powers Amazon Web Services(AWS) managed services like Amazon AppStream 2.0 and Amazon WorkSpaces is now regularly referred to by its new moniker.

What’s new with version 2024.0?

Are you trying to find a reputable, safe and best web hosting provider? Looking for a dependable and affordable web hosting solution? Linux web hosting is a fantastic choice for companies, bloggers, and website developers.

We'll go over Linux hosting's advantages and why it's the greatest option for website hosting. The different types of Linux web hosting will also be covered, along with advice on how to pick the best Linux web hosting provider.

Linux hosting: what is it?

Linux hosting is a type of web hosting in which websites are hosted on the Linux operating system. Because it can handle a variety of online applications and is dependable, safe, and stable, it is a popular option for hosting. Linux hosting is the practice of running websites on Linux-powered servers. Various hosting choices may be available, including dedicated hosting, cloud hosting, VPS hosting, and shared hosting. Companies and developers frequently choose Linux hosting due to its adaptability, affordability, and capacity to run unique applications.

Features of Linux operating system for website hosting-

The reliability, security, and flexibility of the Linux operating system make it a popular choice for web developers and website owners. Here, we'll examine some of the main characteristics of Linux operating systems used in web hosting and the reasons why they're the best option.

Flexibility

The Linux operating system can run numerous programs, including content management systems (CMS), e-commerce platforms, and custom apps. This implies that any kind of website, including blogs, e-commerce sites, and custom applications, can be hosted on a Linux server.

Scalability

Scalability is another benefit of Linux hosting as your website expands and traffic increases, you may quickly upgrade your hosting plan to a higher level of resources, such as more CPU and memory. By doing this, you can ensure that your website can manage the extra traffic and continue functioning properly.

Open-Source and Free

Because Linux is an open-source operating system, hosting providers can offer Linux hosting plans at a cheaper cost than other forms of hosting because it is free to use. Furthermore, Linux servers are renowned for their efficiency, which enables them to manage numerous websites with fewer resources used, resulting in cheap web hosting cost.

Interface That's user-friendly

Numerous control panel options are also available with Linux hosting. You can easily manage your website and hosting account with a control panel, which is an intuitive user interface. Plesk and cPanel are popular control panel choices for Linux hosting. These panels offer many functions, such as creating email accounts, managing databases, and viewing website statistics.

Security Level

Another benefit of best Linux hosting is its high level of security. The operating system is routinely updated to address weaknesses and fend off attackers because security was a top priority during its construction. To further improve security, Linux servers can also be configured using a range of security features, including firewalls and intrusion detection systems.

Simple Structures

It is an extremely thin operating system. It consumes less storage space, has a smaller memory expansion, and has significantly fewer requirements than any other operating system. A Linux distribution usually has around the same amount of disc space and just 128MB of RAM.

Dependability

Numerous computer languages and frameworks, such as PHP, Python, Ruby, and others, are compatible with Linux. Because of this, it's a fantastic option for hosting websites created using these technologies.

Virtual Web Hosting

Multiple websites can be hosted on a single server using Linux hosting, which is another feature. We call this "virtual hosting." It enables you to host several websites, each with its own content and domain name, on a single server. For companies or individuals who wish to host several websites without having to buy several hosting services, this can be an affordable web hosting solution.

Perfect for Programmers

Almost all of the widely used programming languages, such as C/C++, Java, Python, Ruby, etc., are supported. It also offers a vast array of applications related to development. Most developers worldwide prefer the Linux terminal over the Windows command line. The package manager on a Linux system helps programmers learn how things are done. Additionally, it supports SSH and has capabilities like bash scripting that help with quick server management.

Linux Hosting Types-

Linux websites have access to cloud hosting, dedicated hosting, VPS hosting, shared hosting, and other hosting options.

Shared hosting:

The most straightforward and reasonably priced kind of Linux hosting is shared hosting. It entails running several websites on a single server and sharing the CPU, memory, and storage between the websites. A suitable choice for tiny websites with low to moderate traffic is shared hosting.

Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting:

This kind of Linux hosting gives your website access to a virtualized environment. Having the same physical server entails hosting your website on a virtual server that is divided from other websites. While VPS hosting is still less expensive than dedicated hosting, it offers greater control and resources than shared hosting.

Dedicated hosting:

With dedicated hosting, you have exclusive use of a physical server for Linux hosting. This implies that you are the only user with access to all of the server's resources, and you can set it up to suit your requirements. The priciest kind of Linux hosting is dedicated hosting, which is also the most potent and offers the greatest control.

Cloud hosting:

This kind of Linux hosting includes putting your website on a cloud-based server network. This implies that your website is simultaneously hosted on several servers, offering a great degree of scalability and dependability. Although cloud hosting is more expensive than shared hosting, it is a versatile and affordable web hosting choice for websites that require a lot of resources or traffic.

The size, traffic, and resource requirements of your website will determine the kind of Linux hosting that is best for you. While VPS, dedicated, and cloud hosting are better suited for larger businesses with higher traffic and resource requirements, shared hosting is a reasonable choice for smaller websites with minimal traffic.

Advice on Selecting the Best web hosting provider-

To make sure you get the best service for your website, it's crucial to take into account a few vital considerations when selecting an affordable Linux web hosting provider. The following advice will help you select the best Linux web hosting provider:

Find a trustworthy web hosting provider

Go for a web hosting provider that has a solid track record in the sector. Choose a hosting provider that has been in operation for some time and has a solid reputation for offering dependable hosting services. To locate a service that other people have found reliable, you can read reviews and get referrals from friends and co-worker's.

Think about the cost

To get the greatest value, compare the costs of several hosting providers. But remember that the least expensive choice isn't necessarily the best. Aim to strike a balance between the cost and the hosting provider's services and reputation.

Establish your hosting requirements

It's critical to ascertain your hosting requirements prior to beginning your search for a hosting provider. Take into account the size of your website, the volume of visitors you anticipate, and the kinds of apps you plan to use. This will enable you to focus your search and select a best web hosting provider that best suits your requirements.

Good customer service provider

Pick an affordable web hosting provider that offers best customer service. Choose a service provider who provides live chat, email, and phone support in addition to round-the-clock assistance. This will guarantee that assistance will be available to you at all times.

Selecting the Linux web hosting provider is a crucial choice that will significantly affect the functionality and dependability of your website. You may choose the best hosting provider for your website by taking into account your needs, searching for a reliable provider, examining the features, and seeking for a provider that offers excellent customer service.

Think of the type of hosting

Select the hosting plan that works best for your website. As was previously noted, Linux hosting comes in a variety of forms, including dedicated, cloud, shared, and VPS hosting. Select a best and an affordable hosting provider that provides the type of hosting that best meets your requirements.

Examine the advantages offered by the hosting

Verify if the hosting provider has the services you require. The quantity of storage and bandwidth, the number of domains and subdomains, the kind of control panel, and the presence of one-click installs for programmes like WordPress are a few crucial aspects to take into account.

Conclusion-

For those searching for a dependable and reasonably priced hosting solution, Linux hosting is an excellent choice. It has a tonne of features. Linux hosting is one of the most popular hosting options available thanks to all these advantages.

Unchain Your Website's Potential: The Ultimate Guide to VPS Hosting!

Is your website sluggish, unreliable, and constantly battling for resources? Shared hosting might have been a lifesaver when you were starting out, but now it's holding you back. Upgrading to a Virtual Private Server (VPS) can be the game-changer you need. But what exactly is a VPS, and how can it unleash your website's true potential?

This comprehensive guide dives deep into the world of VPS hosting, explaining how it works, its benefits for tasks like Forex trading, and the key factors to consider when choosing the perfect plan for your needs. We'll even show you how to navigate the setup process and unlock the power of your VPS with tools like Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP).

By the end of this article, you'll be armed with the knowledge to confidently choose a reliable VPS hosting provider like Data Base Mart and propel your website or application to new heights of performance and security.

Unveiling the VPS: How It Works

Imagine a high-rise apartment building. The entire building represents a physical server owned by a hosting provider. Now, imagine dividing each floor into individual, self-contained units. These units are your VPS!

VPS hosting leverages virtualization technology to carve a single physical server into multiple virtual ones. Each VPS functions like a dedicated server, with its own operating system, software, and allocated resources like CPU, memory, and storage. This isolation ensures your website or application enjoys a stable environment, unaffected by activity on other virtual servers sharing the physical machine.

How VPS Hosting Works

VPS hosting builds upon the core principle explained above. Hosting providers like Data Base Mart offer various VPS plans with different resource allocations. You choose a plan that aligns with your needs and budget. The provider then sets up your virtual server on their physical infrastructure, granting you root access for complete control and customization.

Powering Forex Trading with VPS

Foreign exchange (Forex) trading thrives on speed and reliability. A VPS ensures uninterrupted access to the market, even during peak trading hours. With a VPS, you can run trading bots and automated strategies 24/7 without worrying about downtime caused by shared hosting issues.

Choosing the Right VPS

Selecting the ideal VPS hinges on your specific needs. Here's a breakdown of key factors to consider:

Resource Requirements: Evaluate your CPU, memory, and storage needs based on the website or application you'll be running.

Operating System: Choose a provider offering the operating system you're comfortable with, such as Linux or Windows.

Managed vs. Unmanaged: Managed VPS plans include maintenance and support, while unmanaged plans require you to handle server administration.

Scalability: If you anticipate future growth, choose a provider that allows easy scaling of your VPS resources.

How to Use VPS with Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP)

Many VPS providers offer remote access via RDP, a graphical interface that lets you manage your server from a remote computer. This is particularly useful for installing software, configuring settings, and troubleshooting issues.

Creating a VPS Account

The signup process for a VPS account is straightforward. Head to your chosen provider's website, select a plan, and follow the on-screen instructions. They'll typically guide you through the account creation and server setup process.

VPS Pricing

VPS plans are generally more expensive than shared hosting but significantly cheaper than dedicated servers. Pricing varies based on resource allocation and features. Providers like Data Base Mart offer competitive rates for reliable VPS solutions.

VPS Terminology Explained

VPS Stands For: Virtual Private Server

VPS Airport (doesn't exist): VPS is not an airport code.

VPS in Basketball (doesn't exist): VPS has no meaning specific to basketball.

VPS Hosting: As explained earlier, refers to a hosting service that provides virtual private servers.

VPS in Business: In a business context, VPS can refer to a virtual private server used for web hosting, application deployment, or other IT needs.

VPS in School (uncommon): While uncommon, schools might use VPS for specific applications requiring a dedicated server environment.

Final Thoughts

VPS offers a compelling middle ground between shared hosting and dedicated servers. It provides the power and control of a dedicated server at a fraction of the cost. By understanding how VPS works and choosing the right plan, you can unlock a secure and reliable platform for your website, application, or even Forex trading needs.

Growing your business requires scaling your Plesk reseller hosting services. Start by evaluating your current resource utilization and discovering any restrictions in your existing configuration.

Plesk lets you add CPU, memory, and bandwidth to customer accounts for easy scaling.

Effective marketing strategies

Effective marketing strategies are crucial for expanding your Plesk reseller hosting business.

Email marketing campaigns with unique discounts or new features can also be beneficial.

By putting these marketing ideas into practice, you can increase your clientele and income dramatically.

For better value, bundle

Another efficient strategy to expand margins and stand out is by combining domains with critical web services. Besides delivering additional value to your consumer, bundling also boosts the average order value, which is vital in a market with intrinsically tiny per-product margins.

Web hosts frequently purchase SSL certificates, DDoS protection, email services, and CDNs as part of bundles. Although popular, these products are highly competitive. Besides bundling products, you might offer specialist products like DMARC or VPN services that your competitors may not offer.

Improving customer satisfaction

Enhancing customer experience is important to the success of your Plesk reseller hosting business. Start by giving your clients an easy-to-use control panel for managing their websites, email, and other services. Comprehensive documentation and tutorials can help clients solve common problems on their own. Give customers several support channels, including live chat, email, and phone, and answer questions quickly. Call clients by name and understand their needs.

Request feedback via surveys or direct communication to identify areas for improvement. Furthermore, providing value-added services like performance optimization, security upgrades, and automated backups can greatly enhance the general clientele experience. Providing customers with information about upgrades, new features, and maintenance plans fosters openness and confidence. By focusing on client satisfaction, you may develop long-term connections and drive favorable word-of-mouth referrals.
