Aug 18th, 2000, 08:39 PM
well I have finally decided that I am definatly going to start my business, probably within the next month,
I was gonna call it dennissoft, but that name is kind of egotistical.....

I am thinking of calling it cyberinertia what do you think of that?

would you want to buy from a company called cyberinertia?


and where should I register my domain/host my site?
I am thinking of registering at http://www.registerclub.com and hosting it at..........
ummmm does anybody know of a good place to host my domain?

it has to have these features



I dont want it free, those are crap!
since I am paying, NO BANNERS
PHP and Perl, or ASP and Perl
I dont absolutely Need Perl
some kind of DB system like MySQL
no more than $20 a month
at least 6gb bandwidth
at least 30mb storage 50 prefered
although I dont know how to use this with CGI an accessable C/C++ compiler (on the server) would be nice
Unix or Windows if windows 2k prefered, if unix, linux prefered
good uptime
able to host subdomains(IE me.domain.com)
NO BANNERS
NO BANNERS
unlimited access to cgi-bin(some places only allow premade scripts, that are made or approved by them)
allows you to store all files(HTML, ASP(or PHP)(or CGI), ZIP, Exe, etc.)
good uptime
and
NO BANNERS


I hope that isnt asking too much for only $20 a month....



Thanks A LOT

Take a look at www.virtualempire.com. It has a lot of the features you wanted for a reasonable price. And Good luck with your business!!:)

thanks!
I looked at your sig, how did you dish out $2500 for BCB Ent?


and
after looking at the list of features this place has(I am probably gonna go with them though)

I also need



Frontpage support
at least 3 pop email accounts
if it is a Win. virtual server I must be able to use ASP


and although they sound good, I dont think I am gonna go with them, because they dont have asp, you cant access DB, and I dont think you can write your own scripts(not sure though),
but DAMN!
sure is temping, unlimited bandwidth, 20pop's, 40mb....

One time, my dad brought BC++ and VB home with him(He is also a programmer). Ever since, I have been completely hooked on programming. Someday, I hope to fill my signature with ALL languages. But that will be a few years from now and a hell of a lot of cash. :D

DAMN your lucky....
I have visual studio 6.0 enterprise... I got it off of ebay though.....
and you can never find an enterprise borland product on ebay,
but I guess I will just use my good looks to get a cheap enterprise edition straight from inprise...
well I wouldnt really be using my good looks, more like my student ID.

2 points dennis

1. Don't dive in with the first host that looks close - keep looking for exactly what you want - don't compromise. Chances are you'd be stuck with them for a year if you do.

2. I don't like the name cyberinertia. Inertia implies sluggishness or inactivity. Do you want these adjectives associated with you and your business? I believe a name should have positive connotations, not negative.

Cyberinertia seems a bit difficult to comprehend in one quick glance. How about a little punctuation?

cyber-inertia, cyber.inertia, or whatever. Otherwise it seems like a good name to me.

I was thinking about adding a dash between cyber and inertia, but now I know I am :)


and when I hear the name cyber-inertia(or anything else with inertia), it makes me think of something going fast, that wont stop....

but thats just my opinion :)

Another idea is to find a word in another language that tells what your business is about. For example, "Provectus" means "advanced" in Latin. This is just an idea, and I like the name you have already:). If you are looking for more advice, go to www.entrepreneur.com. It has lots of great articles and tips for starting your own business.

aggreed on that name explaing what the company is about
took me FOREVER to come up with mine
changed it at LEAST 25 times
every time i thought i had the best
then i was like SHIRTTTTT this new one is better

i produce software to help people with knowledge
so i decided to name it Al - Kitab Software
which means THE BOOK in some language, and we know a book(in most cases is symbol for knowledge)
hehe

there is my 2 canadian cents in there..
