Global Ignite Week – March 1-5, 2010 Igniters on six continents have answered the call–they’ve signed up to bring Ignite to nearly 60 cities the week of March 1-5. Antarctica, don’t be left out!
What Is Ignite?
Started by Brady Forrest, Technology Evangelist for O’Reilly Media, and Bre Pettis of Etsy.com, formerly of MAKE Magazine, Ignite was inspired by Pecha Kucha Nights, where speakers are given 20 slides, each shown for 20 seconds, giving each speaker 6 minutes and 40 seconds of fame. The first Ignite took place in Seattle in 2006, and since then the event has become an international phenomenon, with gatherings in Helsinki, Finland; Paris, France; New York, New York; and many other locations.

They can put in some entries about their services and start to advertise them online.

Will there be ads on your web site?
No ads for third parties will appear on your web site unless you add them yourself. Your entire site can be dedicated to promoting your own business. Offered as part of all plans.
What about our email?
Email has your own mail.yourdomain.com mail server with webmail, and POP3 accounts all administered via your web browser. Plan 25 includes 15 E-mail POP3 accounts, 15 E-mail forwards, a catch-all Email alias. Each address comes with 1000 MB of storage and virus and spam protection.

What about using PayPal?
PayPal is a payment method that allows you to sell individual products or accept donations on your web site. To display a PayPal “Buy Now” or “Donate Now” button, you simply sign up for PayPal, complete a form, and paste PayPal’s HTML code into a page of your site. Please note: PayPal enables customers to make one payment at a time and does not include shopping cart functionality. For complete shopping cart functionality, confer with your webmaster/developer. Offered as part of all plans.
Under Construction Page?
When you register a domain name, we automatically create a placeholder web page for you. Your visitors will see this default “Under Construction” page when they go to your domain until you replace it. Offered as part of all plans.
What about SSL?
SSL is an accepted Standard for transferring information securely across the Internet. It encrypts data passed between the server and the browser, so that unauthorized parties cannot interpret sensitive, confidential or personal information, such as a phone number or address. Offered as part of all plans.
What about bandwidth?
vDomainHosting plans provide you with a generous amount of data transfer per month – so you won’t have to worry if your site becomes a popular one! Here is an example: Let’s say your web site has many images and the average page size is 50KB. With the vDomainHosting Plan 25 (which comes with 96 GIGABYTES of monthly data transfer), your site can serve many many page views per month! And if you want to increase your data transfer even more, you can order more by email to sales@vdomainhosting.com. Additional data transfer is only $5 per 5GB monthly, and you’re only billed if you need it. Offered as part of all plans.
What about subdomains?
A subdomain is also known as a “third-level” domain and is a great way to create memorable web addresses for various areas of your site. For instance, you can use subdomains for services, such as mail.yourdomain.com or orders.yourdomain.com. Offered as part of all plans.
Check to see if your domain name is available here.
Sitemaps are an easy way for webmasters to inform search engines about pages on their sites that are available for crawling. In its simplest form, a Sitemap is an XML file that lists URLs for a site along with additional metadata about each URL (when it was last updated, how often it usually changes, and how important it is, relative to other URLs in the site) so that search engines can more intelligently crawl the site.
vDomainHosting can create your XML file, and email it back to you for posting on your website OR with the FTP information I can upload the file for you.
Promote your business, build your brand, create a family scrapbook, announce a new arrival… How you use your domain name is up to you. But with incredible pricing customers expect from vDomainHosting – Web Hosting Done Right® and a long list of FREE extras, you’ll have everything you need get started online. It’s easy, fast and affordable. Every domain name purchased, is backed by the world-class support vDomainHosting – Web Hosting Done Right is known for. Start your domain name search now!

and here’s a glimpse of the certificate that documents that.
I have to say the “Worst support question” is the one that isn’t asked. The other day the local Chamber of Commerce president was amazed at some of the phone calls he got, and to that I thought, “Worse, the ones that don’t call, do it themselves and then have issues as a result.” In the case of the Internet, and the things your business does through use of that technology, or isn’t doing, just ask us.
