Web Design

Domain Names Explained

Domain names is how your website gets found on the web. Without one, you will just have a website, that is identified by some numbers.

Web design fundamentals - stuff you need to know!

Often I'm asked questions from people who "think" they are asking a Joomla question, when in actual fact they are asking a web design question.  Remember that Joomla is simply a web development tool, nothing more!

In order to equip you with the fundamental knowledge of some basic principals, I thought I would put together this series of short videos covering the following topics.

• Domain Names
• DNS & Name Servers
• Hosting Explained
• FTP - what is it and why you need it.
• What is a STATIC HTML website.
• What is Joomla, and how is it different.

I hope you enjoy this series, please give me some feedback, and any questions that might arise from it.
