How to Store Files Online for FreeIn Feburary 2016 25,
In Feburary 2016 25,
Windows comes with OneDrive; start using your 15GB of free storage by creating a Microsoft account and opening OneDrive on your PC. Google offers 15GB of free storage when you create a Google account, and you can use this space for Gmail attachments, Google+ images and Google Drive files. If you have an iPhone or iPad, you activate your 5GB of free iCloud storage in Settings, although iCloud doesn't work like other cloud storage services. With iCloud, you can only back up documents, emails and photos from your iOS device or Mac computer. Amazon tablets and e-readers include 5GB of space on Amazon Cloud Drive.
Create More Free Cloud Storage Accounts
Dropbox offers 2GB of free space; Bitcasa offers 10GB; and both Box and Cubby offer 5GB. Each of these services has a Web interface as well as desktop and mobile apps for Mac, Windows, iOS and Android. If you're a Linux user, Bitcasa and Dropbox offer Linux programs, too. These services keep your files synced across multiple devices, and Cubby performs peer-to-peer file transfers to efficiently sync your devices' hard drives as well. With one of each of these accounts, as well as OneDrive and Google Drive accounts, you can store 52GB of data on tested, stable cloud servers.
Keeping Your Devices in Sync
Automatically sync files with your cloud storage accounts by installing programs on your computers, tablets and smartphones. When you install a service's desktop application, it creates a new folder to which you can drag and drop files you want to sync. To automatically sync your mobile files, open a cloud storage app's settings menu and turn on background syncing. For example, Dropbox, Google Drive and OneDrive include automatic upload options that back up pictures as you take them. The steps to enable automatic uploads differ among devices and services, but each app includes a similar option in its settings menu.
Streaming Media Files
Broadband services usually offer slower uploads than downloads, so syncing large files can take time. Avoid uploading incomplete files by keeping your files separate rather than compressing them into ZIP archives to save space. With music files especially, this makes sense because you can listen to the files without downloading them if they're not archived. With Dropbox, Google Play and Amazon Cloud Drive, you can stream media files from your cloud storage without downloading them locally. To stream songs from Dropbox, you must install a program such as DropTunes or Tunebox.

How to Start a Business Offering Your Own Web ServerIn Feburary 2016 23,
In Feburary 2016 23,
Research various Web hosting providers that offer reseller accounts for dedicated or virtual private server hosting. Thousands of Web server providers exist on the Web; however, few actually maintain their own servers or data centers. For information on Web server hosting providers, visit websites like WebHostingTalk or ResellerPremium. These types of sites offer insight into server companies and the plans they offer. When researching dedicated or virtual private server hosting companies, review comments made by other resellers regarding reliability, pricing plans and support for partners or resellers.
Subscribe to and purchase a server reseller-hosting plan. When subscribing to a plan, consider paying for a full year of reseller hosting in advance, as you will probably receive a discount on the wholesale rate plan.
Learn the management interface that the server provider uses with its system. The management interface is a crucial component of your Web server business and is where you assign, configure and maintain customer server accounts. Create a few sample accounts and configure two or three test servers to learn how to perform the tasks quickly and efficiently. Once customers begin ordering hosting services from your company, they will expect quick configuration and use of their servers.
Publish a domain name that identifies your company as a web server provider. Create a professional website for the business or hire a Web designer to do the work for you. When creating the website, list detailed information on the types and configurations of the Web servers you offer, hosting plan information and pricing information. Provide information on the types of operating systems available, bandwidth usage policies and acceptable uses for the Web servers. To avoid potential legal issues, do not allow website owners to use the servers to display pornography, facilitate transfers of copyrighted material or violate and laws.
Develop a payment processing system for the website. Create an online form for users to submit billing and payment information. Alternatively, have them submit contact information and then call them for needed payment details.
Advertise your Web server company on as many high-volume websites as possible. Alternatively, purchase ads or advertising credits from major traffic-producing sites like Google, LinkShare or DoubleClick. Keep in mind that to drive customers to your site, you must create as much exposure for your new Web business as possible.
Receive orders for Web server hosting accounts and process the payments. Assist the customer in setting up the dedicated or virtual private server as needed.

How to Create a Subscription Web SiteIn Feburary 2016 11,
In Feburary 2016 11,
Create a Web-hosting account. Find a Web host that allows installation of third-party software. Hosting of this variety can be found for about $4 per month as of August 2010 (see reference 2).
Install the content management system (CMS) to manage the website's content. The Web host likely offers two or three different packages as part of its hosting plan. Common open-source choices are Drupal, Joomla and Mambo (see reference 1). These packages are installed through a point-and-click interface from the hosting control panel. Installation and configuration takes less than five minutes to complete.
Customize the CMS installation. Set user permissions to allow registered and anonymous user access. Apply a design theme to set the look and feel of the website, and upload the custom graphics that will be used. All of these are accomplished from the CMS admin control panel. Each item has its own heading to configure that option. Click the heading, set the option and select 'save' when done to apply the new setting.
Create the website content. This includes the written and graphical content. The CMS includes a content editor as part of the program, so content can be created directly in the CMS. Another part of creating content in a CMS is assigning who is able to access that content. As pages are created, assign a permission level of 'registered' or 'anonymous.' Content set to 'registered' is available only to subscribers. The setting is a drop-down box located at the bottom of the content creation editor. Choose the access level, and then click 'save' to apply the permissions.
Set up a payment processing account. The payment processor will handle billing the customer through credit card or alternative means, then deposit that money into your account after subtracting the processing fees. Popular choices for small businesses are PayPal and Google, but other options also exist (see reference 3). Do your homework to find the best mix of processing fees and value-added services offered by the payment processor.
Test the website thoroughly before deployment. Nothing annoys paying customers like not being able to get what they paid for. Test every functional aspect of the website before going live. Once confirmed operational, the site is ready to be launched.
