TV/FILM: Devil May Care: The Bob Dorough Movie

We’ve written about Bob Dorough several times here before. Bob is a unique and wonderful jazz singer/songwriter, but he’s best known as the musical director of Schoolhouse Rock, the cartoon vignettes set to music that taught children Grammar, Math, Science, Multiplication, History. Economics, and Environmental lessons. Bob composed such wonderful songs as “Conjunction Junction” and “Three is a …

Seinfeld episodes notwithstanding, buying a domain name may be easy, but managing the domain and making smart technology decisions is another story. Let’s take a look at the steps and decisions involved in setting up Web and e-mail hosting accounts for your domain.

DNS records for WebInformant.tv; click for a full-size image. First some basics. Getting a new domain is the purview of a domain registrar, someone like GoDaddy.com, Register.com, or even Network Solutions. The registrar handles the paperwork details and bills you once a year for taking care of them. Each registrar handles the various Domain Name System records that tell everyone on the Internet where to find your Web, e-mail, and other servers. The screen shot at right shows a listing of the records for my domain WebInformant.tv.

As the entries on the list indicate, I have set up a separate mailing list server called ‘list’, Google hosts my e-mail (that’s what the MX records are for), and my Web site is located at the IP address of 97.74.144.98.

You can use your registrar’s hosting services for both Web and e-mail services if you wish. This approach is quite convenient, but what happens if you become dissatisfied with your registrar’s service and want to switch to a new provider? Relocating your site is easier if your registrar isn’t also your host.

The Web hosting part of the equation presents you with three basic options: using a Web-based public site provider (free or nearly so); using a virtual private server as your host, running some Windows or Linux Web server software ($50 to $500 a year); or using a managed services provider ($200 a month or more). Cost isn’t the only factor: The free public providers, such as Typepad.com, Wordpress.com, Blogger.com, and Livejournal.com, are easy to set up and maintain but don’t offer much flexibility with page templates and designs. On the positive side, these providers simplify the tasks of updating your site and drawing traffic to it. With one of them, you won’t require the services of a graphic Web designer to build a fairly attractive site.

If you’re interested in extremely low-cost hosting, check out my blog post “Cheap choices for Web hosting,” which compares the services offered by Microsoft’s Office Live Small Business and by Weebly. Obviously, you forfeit some control over your site’s final appearance; but if you want to launch a Web presence quickly, these are both good places to start.

Another option is to use WordPress.com as your main Web site. If you go this route, you must perform an additional step: Have your registrar forward your domain to your Wordpress.com site, or have WordPress perform “domain mapping” for you (under this arrangement, WordPress takes control over the domain and redirects traffic accordingly). I have used both methods. Forwarding your domain from your registrar doesn’t cost anything, but the domain mapping method is perhaps more professional; WordPress charges $10 (technically, $9.97) a year for the latter service. On its site, WordPress provides lots of additional detailed information on domain mapping.

WordPress has an active community of developers and thousands of plug-ins designed to extend the service’s functionality. To deploy them, however, you need to run WordPress’s software on your own virtual server at a separate hosting provider. The downside to self-hosted WordPress sites is that their support for streaming video is less capable than is the support at WordPress.com-hosted sites. That difference becomes especially significant if you intend for your site to house lots of video content
