1and1 offers domain name in $ 0.99 along with private Registration for 1 year.

I am a big fan of 1and1 as they always provide the domain name for the reasonable price.The normal price for the domain name during ordinary days is around $4.99 for .com,.org,.net and some times they offers domain name below $1 to attract more and more customers.

These days 1and1 providing .com domain name in just $0.99 and others major top level domain (TLDs )in $6.99.So it’s a nice opportunity to grab the .com domain name very cheap along with private registration.

For buying a domain name from 1and you need a PayPal account or you should have a credit card.After ordering the domain name they make it ready for you within 24 hours.

Incase of Indian users they have to use the credit card or PayPal account which have credit/debit card attach to it as Indian users cant use the PayPal funds to make a purchase due to latest RBI guidelines.

Many times Indian debit cards are failed while adding  with PayPal account but I came to know about Axis Bank debit card and HDFC bank debit card which is easily attach to PayPal account.

Tip:Incase you don’t have the credit card but do have a debit card with MasterCard or Visa card logo then there is a website which offers you to create the virtual credit card (you will not have physical plastic card) which are known as VCC.Click to know about VCC

Perquisite before making a website..!!!

Umesh Shakya     2:01 PM    
So you have decided to have your own website whether it would be personal or you want to make your online presence strong or you want to make a blog for earning through Google AdSense.But before having your website or blog you need to consider few things in your mind:

afforablebusinesswebsites


1. Domain name:It is the name of the website or blog which you want.We have to choose the domain name very carefully as our whole site depends on it.If you have already decided your niche or topic on which you want to make your website then it would be advisable to have the keyword in your domain name as it turns better while search engine optimization.

But it is not a restriction that we must have the keyword in our domain name.Some times name of the website doesn't tell about content the website would have.People choose such types of domain for make the brand of their content e.g.this website http://www.geekishblog.net
 
Domain name can be purchased from any domain registrar.Some of the popular ones are godaddy,1and1,name.com,namecheap and many others.Usually a .com,.org,.net domain name comes around $10 or less for 1 year.Other domains like .info or country specific like .in etc. comes cheaper.

But if you want to get domains .com,.net or .org even more cheaper then most of the registrar offers the domain name for about $1 for 1 year for new registration during their some promotion period.So its advisable to keep checking their website to grab the domain name cheaper.

We will also timely publish about the various offers by the domain registrars.

2. Web Hosting:After having the domain name,you need to have a web hosting or web space where your website contents will be reside.Usually the hosting depends upon the types of code you are using for your website e.g.for most of the blogs and other cms the hosting with PHP with Mysql backend is used.

For websites based on asp.net you need a windows sever based hosting similarly  for other types of code your need different types of hosting.

The web hosting companies offer them for different price e.g. for a unlimited disk space php hosting they charge about $100-$150 per year on a shared Linux box.

Some people prefer to have a VPS or virtual private server or even a dedicated server if they have some heavy content and website have a lot of daily traffic.They are a little bit costly in comparison to shared Linux box.

Although you can have a blog totally free on various platforms like Blogger,Wordpress but having name which is something like something.BlogSpot.com or something.Wordpress.com just looks unprofessionally so I advice to purchase a domain name at least if you are unable to purchase hosting

Tip: If you want have your website or blog simply in just $1 then grab a domain name while there is any offer by a company and simply point your domain name to blogger.
 
Thus you have your own blog just $1 which is better rather then xyz.blogspot.com.Similarly if you want to simple personal website then point your domain name to various free webhosts providing hosting.Some of them are x10hosting ,110mb etc..

3. Content:  Make sure you have enough content for your website or the scripts or you already hire the coder to make your website and which is necessary ready to start your website or blog.It is advisable to purchase the domain name a.s.a.p..Many times the name you are thinking of is already registered or not available after some time.

When you ready with some of the content then go for web hosting and upload your content on the sever using tools like filezilla.Usually content is put in the public_html directory on the php based web sever.
 
After having all the things ready the next step is promotion which comes under the Search Engine Optimization which is the very crucial step for your website success.

One of the great feature of the windows 8 and windows 7 is that they can be install using the pen drive.Many times when our dvd rom not working properly then this feature enable the user to install windows 7 or 8 using the pen drive.

But before installing them through pen drive we have to make the pen drive bootable so that the pen drive can boot the windows 7 or 8.Moreover the installation becomes faster when we install through the usb.

Bootable usb can only be made by using either vista or windows 7 and not on windows XP (use any of your friend pc to do so.) Now for making a pen drive bootable follow the steps listed ahead:

1.Insert the pen drive of about 4+ GB and backup all data from it as we are going to format it in the upcoming steps.

2.Type CMD in the start menu search field and right click on cmd and click on run as administrator.

3.After the opening the command prompt,enter the following commands.

DISKPART and press Enter

LISTDISK and press Enter.

This command will show you the Disk Number of pen drive.
After that you enter the following listed commands.These are self explanatory,so you can easily guess what they will do.

SELECT DISK 1 (Replace it with your disk number)

CLEAN

CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY

SELECT PARTITION 1

ACTIVE

FORMAT FS=NTFS (it will take some time)

ASSIGN

EXIT

4.Open the cmd again and take your windows 7 or 8 dvd drive and note down the drive letter of the optical drive and the pen drive.
Now execute the following commands

D:CD BOOT and enter. Where “D” is your DVD drive letter.

CD BOOT and enter to see the below message.

BOOTSECT.EXE/NT60 H:
(Where “H” is your USB drive letter)

5. Now copy the all contents from windows dvd to your pendrive.

6.Change your bios setting and select pen drive first in the boot order.

And thus your pen drive is ready to install windows.

Now if you checking YouTube for how will the windows 8 will work,your wait now ends here.Microsoft launched Official Windows 8 Developer Preview to the public.Thus anyone can install windows 8 on their notebook,laptops or pcs.

17-Windows-8
One thing we have to keep in mind is that this is the developer preview and so Microsoft will not providing any support during this.There may be chances that it would not support some hardware.It can crash or can not operate properly.

One more thing after installing you might not able to uninstall it so you should have a spare computer for install.

The windows 8 can only be remove by some Linux distro like Ubuntu,Fedora,Rhel or Mint.To uninstall using these we have to run our computer from live cd and simply format the drive Windows is installed.The Linux can be used to remove viruses also.

All of the of versions are in .iso format.So you have to burn it on the DVD to make it ready for install.I hope you already know about burning dvd using the nero.But if u dont know  no worry.
