RSS - Real Simple Syndication

What is RSS? RSS (RDF Site Summary - formerly called Rich Site Summary or Really Simple Syndication) is a method of presenting news or other Web content that is available for "feeding" (distribution or syndication) to the actual reading audience. To publish content, such as news headlines or stories, the given Web site creates a description of that content and its location within the site in the form of an RSS document. What is RSS News? The RSS News is a tool, which allows you to place news in a chosen section of your website.

What TLD to choose for your domain name?

TLD is the abbreviation for "top-level domain" and SLD is the abbreviation for "second-level domain". For example, in the domain name my-best-domain.com, the TLD is .com and the SLD is my-best-domain. The TLDs available at a promotional price with our hosting plans are .com, .net, .org, .biz, .us or .info. You can also choose from a variety of other TLDs that are offered at a regular price both on the sign-up page and in the Web Hosting Account Control Panel.
Complete information about the TLDs on offer is available in the domain TLD tables displayed below.

Domain Name - Why You Need It?

A domain name is a given word, or a couple of words, associated with a unique Internet IP address. You need one to lead the visitors to your online site in the biggest society in the world - the World Wide Web. What's more, people can easily remember the domain name and visit the website it points to at any time as long as they have at their disposal a PC and connection to the Internet.

Site Studio

Explore our rich database of over 70 business-oriented templates in different color schemes.

SITE STUDIO FEATURES:
Simple to use: SiteStudio guides the user step-by-step, providing simple choices with regards to color, style, and images. There is no software to buy and no code to learn. In addition, there is no need to mess around with programs such as FTP or Telnet.
Content and Design Separation: The content of the website(s) is stored separately from the layout. This way, you can completely change the look of your website(s) with just six clicks of the mouse, without ever having to retype any information.

Complete control over color schemes: SiteStudio includes a number of built-in color combinations that look great with any layout. But if you want to add a little originality to your site by changing the colors, use a point-and-click color picker or, for even more control, type in the color as a hex number.

Layout templates: The layout of the site(s) is controlled by layout templates. These are created in HTML, enhanced by a few additional tags for generating images. SiteStudio comes with 71 layout templates, the Personal category sharing 21 layouts and the Small Business category - 50 layouts. More layouts are added with every new version of SiteStudio. You may want to create additional layouts on your own or request them from us.

On-the-fly image generation: SiteStudio dynamically generates the images it needs for each website design, so each time you decide to change the color combination for a given page, the layout, or just a button caption, the necessary image is automatically created. You need not ever bother with complex and expensive programs such as Photoshop to create websites with clean and professional-looking graphics: our designers have already done that for you!

User-uploaded images: Thanks to the Image Uploader, you will be able to transfer images to your online account without ever having to leave your browser. These images can be incorporated into page content or even page design. You can create an online photo album or insert a personal picture to make it a seamless part of the page logo.

Variety of pages: SiteStudio can be used to make many different pages. You can create an online resume or build a personal photo album. Everything is done in a simple step-by-step process that is easy to learn and to follow. And because pages are template-driven, you can add your own custom page types or request pages with specific functionality from us.
You can see the list of available templates.

One-click publishing: Your website(s) is published with one easy click. But even after it has been published, you can go back and change it as much as you wish. By clicking on the "Publish" button again, you will instantly upload all the changes that you have made to the "live" version of the site.

Persistence: All your information is saved the moment it is entered. If you decide to log out, you can come back and continue building your website from where you left off.
Complete control over the website: With the use of Site Studio's provided settings, you can make unique and attractive websites. SiteStudio provides the advanced user an option to change buttons on the site.
