How-To: 4 Things You Need To Start A Website

These are the main things you need to start a website:

1. Domain Name - A name or domain name is your website url (address). This is how people can easily find and even remember you. For example, aesyonline.site is a domain name. A good domain name is normally short and easy to remember. For example google.com.

2. Hosting - Hosting or storage is where your materials for example images, creatives, videos, text, and more are stored on the net. This makes your website and materials are accessible 24/7. There are a few types of hosting as well as software to manage hosting services, for example the cPanel.

3. Design - Every website has a design. You can use a website builder to do it using templates, or you can write your own codes. For example THIS is built using Website Builder. WordPress (CMS) is another powerful website builder that gives you flexibility to custom and manage you website.

4. Content - Or pages on your website. They are very important that when someone visits your website, they can quickly understand who you are, what you do, or what you offer. Content can as well describe what your website has and shows from time to time, for example posts (blog) on your website.

🧵 A Story of Bias and Broken Enforcement on Facebook The Rescue Post Paradox Imagine you're managing a small animal‐rescue page. You share daily updates: dogs needing homes, local stray cats, links to adoption events. Then one day your posts start disappearing or being flagged as spam when followers try to share them. It’s bewildering. 😢 You're not alone. Reddit users working with shelters report exactly that: “When their followers share our posts, they are being flagged as spam and removed … mostly updates on rescues, new intakes, events” One wrote: "FB AI interprets a lot of shelter and rescue posts as fishing for likes” and even changed posts by replacing words like “cat” with emoji to avoid detection. Despite appeals, many shelters received no explanation and saw continued suppression of engagement. Facebook’s Spam Moderation Logic Facebook defines spam as content designed to deceive, mislead, or artificially inflate engagement. Flooding feeds, impersonating accounts...

SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer. It is the standard technology to keep an internet connection secure, safeguarding any sensitive data that is being sent between two systems, can be server to server or a server and a client, preventing criminals from reading and modifying any information transferred. SSL uses encryption algorithms to scramble data in transit, makes sure that any data transferred between users and sites, or between two systems remain impossible to read, preventing hackers from reading it as it is sent over the connection. TLS (Transport Layer Security) is an updated, more secure, version of SSL. Not only is TLS more secure and performant, most modern web browsers no longer support SSL 2.0 and SSL 3.0. While SSL is still the dominant term on the Internet, most people really mean TLS when they say SSL. HTTPS (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure) appears in the URL when a website is secured by an SSL certificate. The details of the certificate, including the issuing aut...

Share: Programming Languages

Programming languages are essential tools that enable humans to communicate with computers, instructing them to perform specific tasks. These languages serve as a bridge between human understanding and machine execution, allowing developers to create a wide range of software applications. In this comprehensive overview, we'll explore the history, types, and characteristics of programming languages. History of Programming Languages: The history of programming languages can be traced back to the mid-19th century, with the development of early mechanical computers. Ada Lovelace, often regarded as the world's first programmer, wrote algorithms for Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine in the 1840s. However, the true evolution of programming languages gained momentum in the 20th century. 1. Machine Code and Assembly Language: The earliest "programming" involved manually toggling switches or setting wires on early computers to input binary instructions directly. As techno...
