How to Publish a Web Site in Asp.Net


Obtain from your web hosting company the necessary information to use FTP (File Transfer Protocol) to upload your files as well as the correct connection string(s) to access a database that is part of your website.
Upload your website files to your web host using FTP. Include the web pages, any image files or other web content files related to the new site.
Replicate any database schema and tables that are part of your website to the web host's database server. Do this either by developing the database on the web hosting company's database server if allowed or with the Database Publishing Wizard that is part of Visual Web Developer (installed with ASP.NET).
Update the web.config file that was uploaded as part of Step 1 so that the database connection string will point to the web host's database server rather than the location on your own PC. This may involve several connection strings if the website includes complications such as additional systems, membership pages, and roles (Admin, Full User or Limited Use, for example).
Test all connections and features of the hosted website for functionality. Correct any bugs or non-working parts on the local computer and then upload the corrected web pages.

How to Add Images to ProBoards Signatures


Upload the image to be placed in your ProBoards signature to an image hosting site such as Photobucket, or your own website if you have the space available. Once you have the image uploaded, make a note of the address that links directly to the image by right-clicking on the image and selecting “Copy Image Address.” This saves a copy of the image location, known as a URL, to the clipboard.
Browse to the ProBoards account where you want to put the image into your signature. Log in to your account if you are not already logged in, and select the 'Profile' link to access your profile for this account. Click “Add Signature” and select the “Add Signature to All Posts” option. This will ensure the image you add to your signature is automatically added to the end of all your posts.
Click on the text box for your signature. Enter the opening tag for the image code, '[img]' (without quotes), which tells the software that you want it to load an image. Right-click after the closing square bracket and select “Paste,” or press 'Ctrl+V' to paste the URL of your image. Enter the tag '[/img' (without quotes) to close the image command and click “Save Changes.”

How to Link Your Domain Name to eBay (5 Steps)


Register a domain name for your eBay store from a reputable domain name registrar such as GoDaddy. For branding purposes and easier memorability, try to register a domain name that matches your eBay user ID. You must register the domain with a registrar that allows domain name forwarding. With domain forwarding, customers will be redirected to your eBay store when they type in your domain.

Log into your registrar's control panel using the user ID and domain name the registrar gave you upon registration.
Find the domain forwarding options in the dashboard for your domain name's control panel. The appearance of your domain's control panel can vary widely depending on the registrar with which you registered. Try to find an option that reads 'DNS settings' or 'Forwarding and Parking.' It may also say something like 'Domain Aliases' or 'Domain Masking.' Click until you get to the screen that asks you to input to what site you'd like your domain to forward.
Enter your eBay profile or eBay store URL in the field provided in the domain forwarding screen. The syntax for this URL is 'http://www.stores.ebay.com/your_store_ID' without quotes. Replace 'your_store_ID' with your unique eBay store ID. If you want your domain to just forward to your eBay profile, type 'http://myworld.ebay.com/your_eBay_ID' without quotes. Replace 'your_eBay_ID' with your unique eBay member name. You can also forward the domain to your current list of items for sale, by copying and pasting the 'Items for sale' link in your member profile.
Save your settings in your domain control panel. Once your domain registrar has processed your request, which can take as little as five minutes or as long as 72 hours, your domain name will now to your eBay account.

How to Add Sound to eBay Items (8 Steps)


Upload the sound files to an online host. Many Internet service providers give their users a small amount of web space for free with their Internet accounts. If yours does not, look for a service like http://www.DataZap.net that specializes in hosting files specifically for auctions. Many image hosts will also host photographs.
Copy the address where your files are located. This is the address the host provides to your files and should start with 'http://www."
Go to http://www.eBay.com and click 'sell.' If prompted, enter your login information.
Choose a category for your auction and give it a title and price.
Click the HTML option from the box towards the middle of the page entitled 'Describe the item you're selling.'
Type:
<EMBED SRC=http://www.host.com/mysong.mp3
HIDDEN=false HEIGHT=100 WIDTH=195
AUTOSTART=false LOOP=true>
</EMBED>
Replace the line in Step 6 that says, 'http://www.host.com/mysong.mp3" with the address you copied in Step 2.
Finish posting your auction. Your sound file will play within the auction in the auction viewer's default music player. Viewers have the option to play or pause the file.

How to Find Where a Web Site Is Hosted (5 Steps)


Do a 'whois' search. This is a search that shows you who has registered a domain. There are many sites that allow you to perform this search; see Resources for just a few examples. The site WhoIsHostingThis.com offers the simplest results; typing in a website address will yield the very simple result: 'xxx.com is hosted at xxx.com,' as seen in the image.
Read through the results of a more complex 'whois' search, such as one done through GoDaddy's 'whois' search. In the example in the image, Registered through: GoDaddy.com, Inc. shows the website DesignLogicMedia.com is hosted at GoDaddy. The administrative and technical contacts show DomainsByProxy, meaning privacy restrictions were put into place to prevent the address and phone number from showing up and being available to spammers.
Call or e-mail the administrative or technical contact, if it is listed, for further information.
Go to the website itself as an alternate to, or in addition to, a 'whois' search. Often, the website will have information on where it is hosted. Scroll down to the bottom of the page, and you may see 'Hosted by' and the name of a company.
Contact the person listed as webmaster on the website itself. Depending on the circumstances, that person may be willing to offer you information.
