Share: Hosting

Hosting is where your website content such as images, videos etc are stored. Most of the websites share a server with others, some require an entire server.

cPanel is a web hosting control panel software developed by cPanel, LLC. It provides a graphical interface (GUI) and automation tools designed to simplify the administration processes of hosting a website. cPanel also has command line and API-based access that allows third-party software vendors, web hosting organisations, and developers to automate standard system administration processes.

Plesk is a web hosting control panel and data center software developed for Linux and Windows-based hosting services. It is developed by Plesk International GmbH. Plesk's user management model is suitable for dedicated and shared hosting, allowing server administrators to set up new websites, reseller accounts, email accounts, as well as edit and create DNS entries through a web-based interface.

A dedicated hosting service, dedicated server, or managed hosting service is a type of Internet hosting in which the client leases an entire server not shared with anyone else. This is more flexible than shared hosting, as organisations have full control over the server, including choice of operating system, hardware, etc.

There is also another level of dedicated or managed hosting commonly referred to as complex managed hosting. Complex Managed Hosting applies to both physical dedicated servers, Hybrid server and virtual servers, with many companies choosing a hybrid (combination of physical and virtual) hosting solution.

A virtual private server (VPS) is a virtual machine sold as a service by an Internet hosting service. The virtual dedicated server (VDS) also has a similar meaning. A virtual private server runs its own copy of an operating system (OS), and customers may have superuser-level access to that operating system instance, so they can install almost any software that runs on that OS. For many purposes, they are functionally equivalent to a dedicated physical server, and being software-defined, are able to be much more easily created and configured. They are cheaper than an equivalent physical server. However, as they share the underlying physical hardware with other VPSes, performance may be lower, depending on the workload of any other executing virtual machines.

Share: Money Game

Beware of Money Game Schemes (Skim Cepat Kaya): A Cautionary Alert Money game schemes, commonly known in Malaysia as “Skim Cepat Kaya”, are deceptive operations that disguise themselves as legitimate investment platforms. Although they may appear professional and convincing, these schemes are illegal and often leave participants with significant financial losses. How They Work These fraudulent schemes typically promise unusually high returns, interest rates, or profits that far exceed what legitimate investments offer. The reality is that these “returns” are not generated through any actual business or investment activity. Instead, early participants are paid using the funds collected from newer recruits, a structure similar to a Ponzi scheme. Such models are inherently unsustainable. Once the influx of new deposits slows down or stops, the entire system collapses. At that point, most investors, especially those who joined later, suffer major or total financial losses. Tactics Used to ...
