How to Set Up Google Apps on Bluehost

Launch your Web browser, and go to the Google Apps homepage. Click the blue 'Get Started' button.
Click the radio button beside 'Administrator' under 'I Want to Use an Existing Domain' to select and enable this option.
Type the Bluehost website domain name that you want to set up with Google Apps into the input field. Enter just the top-level domain name, which is the part of the domain without the 'http://www.' prefix. Click the 'Get Started' button.
Enter your name, email address and contact information into the input fields in the 'Account Administrator' section.
Click the check box beside 'Google Apps Requires Changes to DNS to Properly Setup Service' to confirm that you understand that Google Apps will change the settings of your Bluehost Domain Name System servers. Click the 'Continue' button.
Type your preferred username and password into the relevant input fields in the 'Your Administrator Account' section. Read the Google Apps terms and conditions at the bottom of the page. If you agree to the terms and want to continue, click the 'I Accept. Continue With Setup' button. This opens your Google Apps dashboard.
Click the 'Activate Email' link in the Email section. This opens the 'Setup Email Delivery' page.
Click the 'Verify Domain Ownership' link. Choose 'Upload an HTML File' from the verification options drop-down list. Create an HTML file in the usual way with your Web design software, text editor or HTML editor. Name the HTML file with the verification name assigned by Google. Copy the Google verification code and paste it into the HTML document. Upload the HTML file to the root folder of the relevant website domain through the Bluehost online content management system control panel.
Click the 'Verify' button. Google will verify the service and activate it within 48 hours. Once Google has activated your Google Apps account on Bluehost, access the Bluehost content management system control panel to set up email forwarding. Click 'Forwarders' in the 'Email' section on the control panel homepage. Add each email address that you want to forward to Google Apps. Select 'Google' from the mail server options, then click 'Add Forwarder.'

How to Create Your Own Game Server

Go to the 'Run' option in your computer's 'Start' menu and input 'cmd' to enter the command prompt. Input 'ipconfig /all' in the prompt, and write down your subnet mask and default gateway DNS server as they appear. Write down the IP address also, but you only need the first three sets of numbers, which should be 192.168.1.
Return to the 'Start' menu and go to the 'Control Panel.' Then go to 'Network and Internet Connections,' 'Network Connections.' Right-click on the Internet connection you are using and select 'Properties.' Then select 'Internet Protocol,' 'Properties.' Check the box for 'Static IP address.'
Fill out all of the needed information in the next window with what you wrote down. For the IP address, type in those first three sets of numbers from your original address, all followed by periods, then enter a number of your choice after that (up to three digits). Click 'OK' when finished.
Open your Internet browser to confirm that your static IP address works.

How to Host Email Servers

Host your mail server on a static IP address. If your IP address changes too frequently, other mail servers might not be able to connect to your server. A static IP address never changes. If you are leasing a dedicated server or co-locating your server inside your hosting provider's facility, then you have already been assigned a static IP address. If you're running a mail server from a home or small business Internet connection, then you might have been provisioned a dynamic IP address. Ask your Internet service provider to upgrade you to a static IP address if you don't already have one.
Establish reverse DNS records. Unsolicited email is such a problem that many email servers routinely reject incoming email unless it appears unlikely to have been forged. A reverse DNS record, also known as a PTR record, links your server's IP address with your server's domain name. Creating this link strengthens the credibility of your server and makes other mail servers less likely to delete your mail. To set up a reverse DNS record, you must ask your domain name administrator to create the record on your behalf.
Create DNS 'MX' records. The Domain Name System (DNS) is the service that a computer uses to look up a server's address. DNS supports a special record just for mail servers: the 'MX' record. These records, also known as 'mail exchanger' records, map domain names into mail servers. If your mail server is called 'mail.mysite.net', for example, then you need an MX record pointing from the domain mysite.net to the server mail.mysite.net. Ask your DNS administrator to set up your MX records on your behalf.
Disable mail relaying in your mail server's configuration. In modern email deployments, a mail server is supposed to accept mail addressed to only one domain name. Nevertheless, a mail server may still choose to accept any mail as long as it forwards the message to its destination. A mail server that accepts any mail is an open relay. Because open relays are responsible for so much unsolicited mail, most mail servers block mail from an open relay whether it is legitimate or not. To avoid this situation, check your server's configuration and make sure that it accepts mail only for its own domain name.

How to Create a DNS Website Redirect (6 Steps)

Log in to your domain registrar account. This is the site where you registered your domain name. It may be the same site as your hosting company, or it may be separate.
Find your domain information. Usually, you should see account details with your individual domains listed.
Locate your DNS information. Not every registrar makes this available. However, in most cases you should be able to find it listed in your domain account. In some cases, DNS may be referred to as 'nameservers.'
Change the DNS information to match the destination IP address. This will instruct any browsers trying to access your current site to visit your preferred address instead. If this functionality isn't available, you may need to search for a CNAME (Canonical Name) option. This will allow you to change the destination web address.
Save your changes. It may take a few hours before the changes register online though it can occasionally take as much as 48 hours.
Test your site to make sure that it is redirecting successfully. If you're having problems with the redirect, you may need to contact your hosting company or domain name registrar.
