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.

Share: Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Understanding Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): How It Works and Why It Matters Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security to your online accounts by requiring not just a password, but a second method of verification. This makes it significantly harder for unauthorized users to gain access, even if they know your password. How 2FA Works When 2FA is enabled, logging into your account requires two things: Something you know – e.g. your password Something you have or are – e.g. a mobile device, fingerprint, or security key This second factor provides an additional checkpoint that only the real account owner should be able to pass. Common Types of 2FA Text Message (SMS) - A one-time code is sent to your registered phone number, which you must enter during login. Authenticator App - Apps like Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, or Authy generate time-sensitive verification codes, often considered more secure than SMS.

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...

Pyramid Schemes: How to Recognize and Avoid Them A pyramid scheme is an illegal and deceptive business model that relies primarily on recruiting new participants, rather than selling actual products or services. While these schemes may look like legitimate businesses at first glance, they are designed to collapse, often leaving the majority of participants with financial losses. Warning Signs of a Pyramid Scheme Be cautious if you notice any of the following red flags: Income is tied to recruitment, not product sales - You're told that your main earnings come from bringing in new members, not from selling products or services. Often, they downplay or ignore product sales entirely and emphasize, “The more people you recruit, the more money you’ll make.” Mandatory inventory purchases - You’re required to buy and keep a large stock of products, even if there's no real demand or you have no intention of selling them. You’re encouraged to buy things you don’t need or want - Whether ...
