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 Make a Website for Arcade Games
Pick a web host service (see Resources). You can pay yearly for a service or choose a free service. The advantage to paying for a web host service is the amount of storage space you'll be provided. If you plan to use a lot of graphics and media files, they will take up a lot of space. Opt for the paid web hosting. Free services don't offer much space. Also, if you want to have advertising on your web site that brings money to you, opt to pay for web hosting. Free web hosting often includes advertising on your website that goes to the web hosting service.
Design your arcade game website. Since you're making an arcade game website, make it fun and flashy like a real arcade. Use colorful backgrounds and graphics. Don't be afraid to include animated graphics and blinking text. This will add to the arcade feel of your website and make it more attractive for arcade enthusiasts. Embed a free arcade sound file on your website for additional authentic arcade feel.
Use the built-in design and upload tools provided by your web host to develop your website and upload the files you'll need. Create an easy menu with simple game categories. Create a section of the website devoted to articles about the history of arcade games, tips on playing arcade games and reviews of arcade games. Devote the rest of the sections of the website to games. Include a section specifically devoted to early classic arcade games like 'Donkey Kong' and 'Pac-Man.'
Embed a wide variety of arcade-style games on your website. There are free resources for games you can easily embed on your website. You can easily embed these games in your website by copying and pasting the code to your web pages. The games are made using Adobe Flash, Shockwave and Java code. Include links to the Adobe Flash and Shockwave players on your web site in case you have visitors that need to download them before playing games on your arcade website.
Use Google Ads to generate income from your website. When you sign up for an Adsense account, Google places content relevant advertising on your website that generates money for you when visitors click on ads. It's free to start a Google Adsense account.

How to Start a Cell Phone Affiliate Site (9 Steps)
Buy a domain name and hosting for your cell phone affiliate site if you don't already have these in place. Think of a domain name that will indicate that your site is related to the cell phone or wireless technology industry. Look for a Web host that includes Fantastico or a similar control panel that gives you the ability to upload scripts and programs with one click. Purchase a basic $7 to $15 monthly hosting hosting service because this is all you will need for a cell phone affiliate website. Web hosting services include HostGator, GoDaddy and FatCow.
Upload a content management system (CMS) program to your website through your hosting control panel. Content management systems such as Wordpress, Joomla and Drupal make creating a website easy and intuitive for the end-user. Look for and install a premium theme or template on your site for your CMS. TemplateMonster, Woo Themes and ThemeForest all contain premium CMS themes that can be used for your cell phone affiliate site.
Modify the CMS theme through your administrative or control panel. Give your website a catchy name related to the cell phone industry and place this name in the header of your site. Modify color schemes and other page elements of your site to match your technology theme.
Start your website by adding content related to the cell phone and/or technology industry. Review trusted technology magazine websites such as PCMag.com and SmartphoneMag.com to find out the latest news in the technology and cell phone industries. Make a couple blog posts on your site or create separate pages devoted to the latest cell phone products, consumer deals within the industry or related news. Each program is different, but some cell phone affiliate programs may prefer affiliates who have sites related to the industry.

How to Host a Homecoming Party (9 Steps)
Learn when homecoming weekend is and determine when you want to host your homecoming party. Homecoming parties can be hosted before or after the big game.
Determine what type of homecoming party you want to have. You can host a homecoming tailgate party, a pre-homecoming game party, a post-game party or a themed homecoming party.
Create your invitations. Use school colors, insignias and mascots in the design of your invitations. Provide all of the information that your guests will need to know when the party is, where the party will be held and what they can expect at the party. For example, if you are hosting a fancy dress homecoming party then your invitation will want to include guest requirements such as 'face paint or body paint required' or 'school colors required for entry.' Have fun with these invitations as they will set the tone for the party.
Buy your food, drinks and decorations well in advance of your party, especially if homecoming is a college or university event. Prep appetizers and marinade meat the day before your party to reduce how much you have to do on party day.
Set up your homecoming party about an hour before you expect your first guests to arrive. There are always early birds to contend with, and you want to greet each guest with enthusiasm.
Dress up for your homecoming party. The host should reflect the theme, tone and spirit of the party.
Greet each guest with enthusiasm and welcome them to your homecoming party. Let them know where they can find food, drinks and party favors. If there will be party games inform your guests when they first arrive to prepare them for the fun ahead.
Lead school cheers, fun homecoming party games and introduce people who don't know one another as the party progresses. Replenish the food and drink supplies as they dwindle. Check with your guests periodically to see if they need anything.
Offer doggy bags and party treat bags to your guests as they leave. Keep an up-beat spirit as you thank your guests for coming. After the last guest has gone you can sit down and relax for a minute before tackling the clean-up.

How to Make a Hog Roast Invitation (6 Steps)
Determine the size and style of invitation you prefer. You can choose to use the full 8 1/2-by-11-inch page, a half page or the full page folded in half to make a card. Making two invitations per page is more economical and environmentally friendly, particularly for larger parties.
Design your invitations, considering how much information you need to provide on the invitation, and whether you wish to include pictures or embellishments. Consider using a red and white checked paper that resembles a gingham picnic blanket, and pig-shaped rubber stamps or cutouts. Lay out the items on your card to see how they look before permanently placing them. This way, you can rearrange as necessary.
Determine the wording. You may choose simple phrases such as: 'You Are Invited to a Hog Roast' or 'Join Us For a Hog Roast.' You may also choose a more snappy phrase such as: 'Let's Pig Out!'
Use a ruler and pencil to lightly place a guideline on your invitation to indicate where your lettering and designs will go.
Apply your lettering using the guidelines you have drawn, and erase any visible pencil lines when you're finished.
Apply your pictures and other embellishments. If accessories are not pre-glued, use a gluestick or double-sided tape to apply.

How to Build a Free Web Page for a Beginner (5 Steps)
Gather all the images and content you will add to your free web page. Use a digital camera to take professional pictures that can be saved to a central location on your computer. Write the content for your web page using word-processing software like Microsoft Word or Apple pages. Your content can include information about yourself, your hobbies, or the product of service you offer.
Register with a free web page community to build your website. Sites like Wix.com lets you register with a username and password to create websites at no cost. Choose a unique name for your sub-domain. A sub-domain is the name of your website attached to the main domain of the free web page community you use. For example, yourfreewebpage.wix.com is a sub-domain.
Upload the images and content you gather into your new website. Free web page communities allow you to drag and drop your content into your new website. Drag-and-drop by selecting the item you would like to copy to your website with the left click of your mouse and drag the image or content into the portion of your new web page.
Change any fonts and colors for your website. Web page creation community software allows you to highlight the text and choose which color you want to change. Right-click on the text to change the size and font. An editing menu may be available in the web page tool to make changes to the content of your site.
Save your changes in the web creation program and visit your new website to see if you are happy with the result.

How to Host a Tupperware Party (8 Steps)
Get in touch with a Tupperware consultant in your area (see Resources below). This person will help you with the all the details of planning and hosting your Tupperware party.
Discuss the type of Tupperware party you plan to host. Decide on a theme, choose whether to host your party indoors or out, and determine the number of potential guests. Work out these details with your Tupperware consultant.
Send out invitations for your Tupperware party well in advance of the event. Make sure you include the date, time, place and any other pertinent information, such as directions or special instructions. In addition, include your phone number or email address with a date to RSVP.
Anticipate that not every person will respond with an RSVP by the date requested. With that in mind, expect that you'll have to call some of the people on your invitation list to confirm their attendance.
Think about menu planning once you have a good idea of how many people will be attending your Tupperware party. Depending on the type of party you're planning to host, you should consider whether simple snacks or a buffet style meal will be in order.
Expect your Tupperware party consultant to arrive early on the day of your party to help you set up.
Relax on the day of your party. You'll be playing host to your guests, of course, but your Tupperware consultant will do the rest in terms of demonstrating all the products and taking orders.
Reap your rewards. The more orders from your party, the more Tupperware products you'll receive in return.

How to Plan a Graduation Open House
First you need to determine where you will hold the graduation open house. Consider that the weather may not be in your favor and you will want an indoor plan if the weather indeed ends up being poor.
Set the date and time. This may also play a role in the location you have chosen. Typically open houses are held on a Saturday or Sunday. Shoot for early afternoon so guest have plenty of time to get there and plenty of time left in their evening.
Once you have a location and date chosen, you will want to get to work on your invitations. Make a list of the guests you want to attend. This list will be important later as well so hold on to it. Get suggestions from your graduate on whom they would like to invite. Next to each family you will send and invite to, make a note of how many people may come in that group.
Make your own invitations to save money. Open house invites can be printed on a one page card. Use a fancier font and center it. Include the graduate the time and place of the open house. Use a separate sheet to include a map if needed. Your invite could read something like this
Please join us as we celebrate the
Graduation of
Name of graduate
From Place of School or University
An open house will be held
In their honor
On Full Date
time
At Location
Address of location
city, state
Invitations should be sent out 6-4 weeks prior to the date of the open house to ensure your guest have plenty of notice.
Next you will want to plan what food and beverage you will be serving. Finger foods work best for an open house, especially if there will not be enough table settings for everyone to sit down to eat. Take your guest list that you made for your invitations and count the number of possible guest that could attend. Plan that 20% may not show. Make a list of food and paper products you will need. Begin watching for your food items to go on sale or look for the best place to get your perishable items at the best price when it is time to purchase them. Plan to prepare enough servings for your guest based on 80% of how many you invited. A graduation cake is a tradition. You may want to begin to shop around or recruit someone to make a cake for you. Also plan on what you will need for serving trays of serving bowls. Begin to ask family and friends if you can borrow theirs if you do not have enough.
Once you have the location set and the menu planned, you will want to consider the set up of the location. Will you need to rent or borrow seating? If you are doing it at your home, you will want to make a list of things that need to be done or taken care of prior to the open house. Remove unneeded furniture or items you would not want broke.
Keep decorations simple. Maybe a few balloons. Make a display of your graduate and their accomplishments in school. This could include sport awards or academic achievements. Guest love to see pictures and you could use a recent year book. Their diploma is also a nice touch and use their graduation cap and tassel on your display. You could also include what the graduate plans to do with their future.
Plan for a gift and card area. Your graduate will not be able to open these as they come. Money is a very typical gift to give to graduate, so be sure you have someone in charge of supervising the cards and gifts as they come in.
Recruit a family member or friend to help with refilling food trays and gathering trash as it needs it. Guests want to be social, so make yourself available to socialize back.
Plan ahead your clean up and who might be available to help put the location you choose back the way it was.

How to Plan a Summer BBQ
Pick the right day. BBQ's are best for end of the week gatherings or weekend days. Pick a time when most people will be available.
Create your guest list. If you've had lots of parties, you know that guest lists tend to expand. If you invite one friend, you have to invite others and so on. Pick compatible people from various sources. Don't just invite people from work. If you do invite people from work, limit the number so that they don't cluster and only talk about work. Diversify. Include neighbors and family members and new acquaintances. Introduce your guests to one another so they can mingle and talk.
Make a party CD. It's a good idea to have all of the music planned ahead of time so that you aren't distracted by choosing CDs and changing the tunes. Making MP3 CDs is great for parties because you can fit 8 hours of music on one CD.
Plan the food. Get a fairly accurate head count so that you know how much of everything to buy. As you invite people, assign them a type of food (salad, dessert, drinks) to bring. Plan for about 20 percent more than you expect. Have a variety of items on hand to BBQ for different tastes. If some people are vegetarian, have some gardenburgers to toss on the grill.
Make sure the food is safe. Meat and mayo based products can't be left for more than 4 hours without refrigeration. No food should be uncovered or in the sun. Barbecue meat to at least medium. Keep an eye on people who over-indulge in alcohol. Have a first aid kit and fire extinguisher on hand for emergencies.

How to Register a Domain Name With an IP Address
Contact your Internet service provider and request a static IP address. Static IP addresses may cost extra, but some providers do include it in their service. Consult your provider to configure your computer with the new static IP address.
Shop for a domain name registrar. Compare pricing among companies to save money. Two places to find registrars are the websites for the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, and InterNIC (see the Resource section).
Register your domain name online with the company you chose. Specify the static IP address on the web form that should be associated with the domain name. Call the customer service department if the form doesn't have space for the IP address. If you have a previously registered domain name, contact the company used to register it and request your static IP address be assigned to your domain.

How to Build a Web Site Step
Brainstorm the site's themes, ideas and contents. Most sites are text-heavy and based on informative content, such as how-to guides and research. Other sites may be focused around an interactive element, such as a message board and online forum.
Choose a paid web host. Hosting plans for basic websites can start at a price as low as several dollars per month, though this price can vary by service provider and be exponentially more as you add more services and features. Various companies offer basic web hosting plans for new sites, such as 1and1 and GoDaddy (see Resources). Most plans can also be upgraded with more features as the site grows.
Select a domain name. This is the address that individuals type into their browser to access the site you've built. Some service providers, such as 1and1, include the domain name with the hosting plan. Choose a name that is simple and easy to remember, and one that also represents the theme or purpose of the site. Keep your future goals in mind. For example, don't choose a dog-specific site name if you are starting a dog care site but plan to expand it to include other types of pets.
Plan the general page design of the site you wish to build. Sites are made up of specific components, the main features being the actual content and the navigation. Typically, the navigational features (for example, site links, search bars, etc.) are found at the top and left-hand side of the page. The empty area is typically the page contents. Sketch out the design on a blank page of paper so that you can envision what the final product will look like.
Build the site. You may use a website building software, such as Adobe Dreamweaver (see Resources). Your web host may also provide automated tools to help generate a webpage. If you are confident in your knowledge of HTML and manual website coding, you may even choose to use a basic text editor and write the code by hand. Individuals often benefit from reading an HTML resource book for the basic principles and tags for building a website. Such books are available at your local library, bookstore or online at a retailer such as Amazon.
Check that each page you've built for the site is compliant with W3C web standards (see Resources). All pages must begin with the
tag and end with the appropriate closing tag,
. Likewise, all opening tags within the two HTML codes must have alternate closing tags (accomplished by repeating the tag and inserting a forward-slash into the first portion of the code).
Upload the finished website to your web host. You may use the host's file browser, which is accessible when you login to your webhosting account. However, most web designers typically upload finished sites using an FTP program such as Cyberduck or Fetch (on a Mac) or SmartFTP (for a PC). The FTP program will connect to your server, and files may be uploaded by dragging and dropping the file on your computer into the FTP software's interface.

How to Build an Online Directory Website (8 Steps)
Decide which type of online directory you'd like to start. Online directories can be paid or free. A general directory has many different categories and subcategories and can be adapted to just about any purpose. Niche directories deal with just one or two kinds of topic (for instance, web designer directory or restaurant directory). Regional or city directories have categories and subcategories related to the businesses and organizations in a specific location. Article directories are websites that list many different categories and subcategories of article topics.
Choose a domain name for your online directory and purchase web hosting to host the website files for your directory. Many domain registrar services exist on the Internet and the majority of places allow you to buy a domain name and hosting at the same place. A few popular examples of registrars and web hosts include GoDaddy, Register.com and Namecheap.
Search for an online directory script that you'll be satisfied with when creating your online directory. You'll be able to choose from many paid and free directory scripts online. An example of a free directory script is PHP Link Directory version 2; a very sophisticated paid directory software includes Gossamer Links.Some important characteristics of a good online directory script that will be search friendly and amiable to visitors include being built in PHP and able to work with MySQL (database through your web host company); offering built-in paid subscriptions so you'll be able to profit from your directory; a featured listing posting; and being easily customizable.
Upload the online directory script to your web hosting service after you have decided on a program to use. This can be done by first downloading the software to your desktop (paying for it first if it is a paid script), and then uploading it to your web hosting server and your domain's main directory by using your host's file manager or via a free FTP (File Transfer Protocol) program such as FileZilla. Check with the particular online directory script vendor for any further instructions, such as whether changing file permissions is needed.
Make any design modifications to your online directory script if desired. Many online directories allow you to upload custom logos. Further design work can be outsourced, if needed, by posting projects on popular freelance websites such as Guru.com or Elance.com.
Decide on a category structure for your online directory. If you'll be creating a regional portal, you'll need to include major cities as categories and the businesses in each city as subcategories. If creating an online general Internet directory, you may need major categories like blogs, forums, hosting services, web designers, and Internet marketers and then subcategories for each.
Log in to the administrator side of your online directory and begin creating categories and subcategories for your directory. Some online directory scripts will have MySQL 'dumps' available, meaning that category structures will be prepopulated on your website. Specific instructions for automatically installing categories through a MySQL dump, if available, can be found from specific directory script vendors. Each directory script is different; your script vendor should also have instructions for creating category structures manually if needed.
Advertise your online directory to increase its popularity. Post links to your online directory in forums and forum signatures, create a blog post about it or even use banner advertisements. Whether starting a paid or a free directory, you can have potential members contact you to get started advertising in your directory listings.
