Web Hosting Tutorials for Small Business Owners

learning new things

"Personally, I am always ready to learn, although I do not always like being taught." ~Winston Churchill

That made Churchill a great man. However, in the same token, an entrepreneur who is always willing to learn new things is destined to succeed.

Moving on.

I think, two of the most daunting and intimidating tasks when a small business owner attempts to join the bandwagon of online entrepreneurs are setting-up their websites and managing it. These involve designing the site per se, writing relevant and SEO-friendly content, and hosting it.

However, with the high cost of hiring (not to mention, high salary demand) IT personnel to monitor, update, and manage a website, I have seen more and more of these newbie online entrepreneurs taking the opportunity to learn the rudiments of website management and web hosting administration. Well, I must admit, that it is not easy for some, like me.

One of my weblogs is self-hosted for more than a year now. Honestly, to date I am still fumbling through the cPanel. I fear making errors (some irreversible) that may lead to creating chaos in my database and/or accidentally deleting those important data. It is intimidating, mind you. I am still learning.
