  1. Usually the moderators of a chan are very busy cleaning up the chan and removing annoying posts. Also removing spam is a big part of the duties of a moderator. The same applies for the moderator of a forum. These things happen in the forum of Xisto and the forum of Xisto too.
  2. Users of a chan are mainly people who like to stay anonymous while posting. They don't want their names and addresses been known on the internet. 4chan is a website with anonymous posters. Other websites are used to discuss for instance anime art. Another purpose to post this list of actions to get a free chan in this section of the forum is to be able to discuss the chan culture on the internet.
  3. Chan is a short name for a channel. This is a website where people can post anonymous. Messages can be posted. And sometimes images and videos can be embedded in the messages. The main difference with a forum is that people don't have to subscribe to post. Users have to subscribe to a forum in order to be able to post on the forum. Xisto is a forum.
  4. This manual is not complete. It is possible, that more parts will be added to the list. And the tutorial department asks for a complete tutorial. That is why it seems this list of actions is not suitable for the tutorial part of the forum.
  5. Manual to get a free Chan Part two. Create five free email accounts Some websites to create free email accounts are: yahoo hotmail gmail There are more websites that offer free email accounts. One of the accounts is ment to back up two email accounts. In case the password is forgotten the back up email account can be used to get a new password. It is recommended that four email addresses are kept private. Don't tell anybody the four email account names. And don't use four email accounts for emailing. Use one email account only to back up the other three email accounts. And use the other 3 email accounts for the registration of the free domain name and the free website and to get a new password. Use one of the free email accounts to back up the fifth email account. The fifth email account can be used to publish on the chan. This email account can be used to communicate with the users of the chan. The idea is that the back up account of the email account to communicate with the users is different from the email account, that is used to back up the registration email accounts. If the email account for communication and the back up account for communication get hacked the email accounts of the chan and the domain name and their back up email account are still safe. So the advice is that there aren't any emails sent from the email accounts except from the communication email account. This advice is given to keep the information and the names of the email accounts as secure as possible.
  6. Manual Part 2. Download the chan file. The name of the software of the chan is kusaba. The website to download the file to create a chan is http://kusabax.cultnet.net/ The version to use for this manual is Kusaba X 0.9.2. It is suggested to upload the full version. The link to the download page is: Kusaba home page
  7. Manual Short list of actions 1. The first step is to create 4 free email adresses. The four email adresses are used for the back up of the other three email adresses, to get a free domain name, to get a free website and to have a contact email address on the chan. 2. Download the chan file. 3. Get a free domain name. 4. Get a free website of a free websitehost. 5. Use a FTP downloader to upload the chan file in the root dir of the server space of the free website host. 6. Extract the chan file into the root dir of the the website space. 7. Download a copy of the config.php file on the hard disk of the computer. 8. Edit the config.php file with WordPad. Add the name of the database host, the database name, the database user name, the database password and the database prefix into config.php. Save the config.php file in txt mode. 9. Upload the edited config.php file into the website space and replace and overwrite the old config.php by the edited config.php. 10. Move three files from the Other file to the root file. The files to be moved are: install.php install-mysql.php chanfilename_freshinstall.sql 11. Run the install.php file. This can be done by typing in the URL of the domain name into the URL window. It is possible to start the install.php file by adding /install.php to the URL of the domain name too. 12. Follow the instructions of the install.php page. 13. Delete 1 folder and three files in of the root dir: The folder: Other The files: install.php install-mysql.php chanfilename_freshinstall.sql 14. Open manage.php 15. Log into the management page with the user name admin and the password admin. 16. Create a new administrator user with a new password. 17. Log out. 18.

Save the new options. 27. Promote the chan. It is pretty easy to set up a new chan. Most of the set up process runs automatically.
  8. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ This link works. And there is a drop down menu at the top of the right upper corner with a long list of langages. Maybe the site puts an advertisement banner on the site. It is not sure at the moment if everything is add free.
  9. The price of a domain Considerations In several topics on the forum of several websites people talk about the lowest price for a domain. Some registars offer promotion prices. These prices are pretty low compared to the regular price. This means that the registar doesn't earn much money from the promotion price. This means that in order to raise money the registar needs some other source to earn money to be profitable. And these source of income is probably the regular price of a domain. After the first year some registars renew the domain name registration automatically for 1 year. The domain name owner is obliged to pay the regular price. It has disadvantages to change the registration to another registar with a promotion price. When the registration ends at the first registar it is possible somebody else registers the domain name. And when the doman name is transferred to another registar it is not sure the low promotion price applies. When the transferring of a domain name is done before the end of the year of the first registration the paid price to the first registar is gone for the rest of the year. This means that when searching for a registar it is usefull to look at the promotion price and to the regular price too. Because after the first year with a reduced price the regular price applies. And since it is possible that some effort is done to attract viewers and visitors to the site, the name of the website can be known by some people and for some other reasons it can be appreciated to use the name of the website for a longer period. This means that it can be seen like unwanted to change the name of the website after the first cheap year of registration. Promo code A low price for a domain can be get by looking for promotions. Some registars ask a low price for promotion reasons. And some extensions are given low prices by a registar while another registar asks a low price for another extension. So it can be usefull to look around and to compare several registars. To help to get an idea about some promotions of some registars here is an overview of some well known and not so well known registars. Some low prices Godaddy https://de.godaddy.com/ offers several promotions with low prices. A .com domain name costs $ 1.17 in december. The promotion code holiday99 needs to be entered during the registration process to gain this low price for the first year of registration. Here are some more prices: .info $ 2.17 .us $ 3.04 .biz. $ 4.56 .mobi 5.32 The .us extension is only deliverd by godaddy to people who live in the United States of America. Godaddy asks a small extra fee for the central registration office added to .us, .biz and .mobi. Xidomain An .in domain name costs $ 4.83 at https://xisto.com/ . Paying the bill can be a bit difficult because of the paying procedure of Xisto - Domains. 1&1 The .info and .com domain name of https://www.1and1.com/ have pretty low prices. .info: $ 0.99 .com: 4.99 .net: 4.99 .org: 4.99 .us: 8.99 .biz: 8.99 An advantage of https://www.1and1.com/ is the free anonymizer feature. voxdomains .us costs $ 3.99 at https://m.secureserver.net/?ci=101147&mrk=sales.none&mrf=%2fsc_origin-b0000273%2f%3fci%3d101147&prog_id=server&pl_id=103768 . .info costs $ 1.99. name.com .com costs $ 8,49 at https://www.name.com/ . The promotion code for this price is festivus. The regular price for .com is $ 9.99. Promotion codes can be found by using Google at websites that publish promo codes and by registering to news letters and in different topics of the forum of different websites about domains and internet topics. The prices are found in December 2010. The information and the prices are found on the websites of the registars and in several different topics on websites that have a forum. At most registars the registration of a domain name needs a credit card.
  10. https://de.godaddy.com/ has a promotion. A .com domain for 1 year costs $ 1.17. The promotion code is holiday99. It needs a creditcard or a debetcard to order and to pay the order.
  11. Please provide more information about the new promotion. The Billing and Support Section doesn't show any information about this promotion price. And https://xisto.com/ doesn't show any information about a lower price either. The title Back Luck seems to be a contraction of I am back and Bad luck and I have bad luck when I am back.
  12. General description The brotherhood of free post to host websites of the forum of Xisto and of the forum of Xisto combine the post to host functionality. Posting on the forum delivers credits. These credits are transformed to digital dollars in an account. Those digital dollars can be used to pay a package containing a website service. Overall impression The forum of Xisto has some things in common with the forum of Xisto. There are some differences too. The forum of Xisto looks a bit more modern and more sophisticated. The forum offers the option to post videos. Xisto doesn't offer this option. The look of the forum of Xisto seems a bit more outdated compared to the looks of the forum of Xisto. The forum of Xisto can be a bit slow when opening a section. The forum of Xisto seems to be directed to more quality posts. It seems it is appreciated when the content of the topics and the posts are to the point, based on facts and proven information of the internet with links to make it possible to other members to check the posted information. Xisto has a high tea party level. A lot of the content of the posts consists of comments about the other members. There seems to be a habit on the forum of Xisto to comment about the post history and the posting habits of other members. It seems more girls are active on the forum of Xisto. Xisto seems to be dominated by a bunch of members, who are members of the forum for a long time, like a year or several years. The service Each forum offers the possiblity to earn credits by posting and starting new topics. The amount of credits that a post delivers depends of several things. These things are not clear. This is understandable, because otherwise members might start to adjust their posts to the way the post offers the most credits. The amount of credits that a post delivers seems among maybe some other things to depend of the lenght of the post and the amount of words in the post. Amount of posts It seems the package of a free website for ten years costs about 100 posts in the forum of Xisto. Xisto offers the same package after about 80 posts. This relies of the lenght of the posts too. But Xisto seems to pay a bit more for a post compared to Xisto. A huge advantage of Xisto is the speed of paying credits. The credit system of Xisto pays the credits for a post sometimes within the hour. Xisto can take several days before the credits for a post appear. It even seems in some occasions some posts don't earn credits. This can cause some frustration and disappointment. Content Xisto seems a bit more directed to information about computers, technical issues, websites and the internet. Coding and building a website are favourite subjects of the members. Xisto seems to be more of a hobby forum. It seems the members like to post about the things they like to do in their lifes. The members of the forum of Xisto seem to react to eachothers posts and habits very much. This kind of interaction doesn't occur on the forum of Xisto. The posts of the forum of Xisto are completey directed to the content of the topic. Behaviour The forum of Xisto offers a high level of politeness and friendlyness. The forum of Xisto is full of negative comments to other members. Conclusion The forum of Xisto and the forum of Knowledgesutras have their points in faviour of the forum and points against the forum. Some members will probably like the atmosphere of one forum more. Some members might probably enjoy several aspects of the other forum a lot. The forum of Xisto and the forum of Xisto seem to serve different kinds of members with different purposes to post on the forum. This means that the forum of Xisto and the forum of Xisto meet the different needs of different members. The activities of both the websites of Xisto and Xisto together serve the different needs and the interests of the internet community. This means each forum has a value. Posting and starting topics on the forum of Xisto and on the forum of Xisto can be fun and rewarding.
  13. You have probably to convert the flash video to a format youtube accepts.Options are probably windows media video, avi, mov and mpg and some other formats.The Youtube help center speaks about Flash files that don't contain a video stream. They are not accepted by the upload engine of Youtube. It is not sure what a flash file that contains a video stream would be.
  14. What is ment by memory?The order shop mentions different packages.The website for ten years.The website with 1 gigabyte of space and 100 gigabyte of bandwidth.The website with 10 gigabyte of space and 100 bandwidth.A shared option.An unlimited option with unlimited space and unlimited bandwidth.The decade plan offers a website with 100 MB space and 1000 MB bandwidth.There seems to be some confusion. Memory can be used for the space available for the website on the hard disk and storage part of the server.Memory can be used for the amount of space of a file that is stored on a hard disk or a storage device too.It is possible that there is a limit to the size a single file can have that is stored on a server.But storing a file is something else compared to running a website.
  15. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ This video shows the complete part of the introduction, the performance during her audition and the interview after the performance back stage.
  16. To show that the information in the topic start post is not completely made up here is a link to one of the videos on Youtube of miss Susan Boyle with at this moment: 53,850,490 views http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Here is a picture of miss Susan Boyle during her first audition.
  17. Website promotion Several ways to promote a website It is possible to see several ways to promote a website. Lets start with the assumption that the webmaster wants to get as much traffic to the website as possible. There are other purposes thinkable besides this assumption. It is possible the webmaster likes to have a special sort of people to visit the website. It is possible, that the website is just ment for a specific group of surfers. A website that is used to give information to the members of a club has its own specific purpose. The webmaster of a website that is used to give member information for the members of the club might miss the purpose of getting as much surfers to the website as possible. The webmaster of a website that sells expensive goods might have the purpose to attract as much rich surfers as possible. And a bank might have the purpose of getting as much possible customers to the website. This shows that different purposes are possible. This topic deals with the purpose of getting as much traffic as possible. This topic doesn't deal with the quality of the visitors. And this topic doesn't cover the different attributions of viewers the webmaster might aim for. There are several issues attached to the purpose of getting as much viewers as possible. Some of these issues are listed below. The list contains simple and easy items. The list can be helpfull to make up the mind of the webmaster and the promotor of the website. The list can be helpfull to get different options sorted out. 1. Content. The attraction of the website is probably the biggest when the content of the website fits the needs and interests of the visitors. If a big audience is aimed for the content of the website can be ment for a big audience too. If the website is made for medical specialist the content of the website will most likely differ from a website that is made for lovers of horses. 2. Uncontrolled promotion. A way to let people know the website exists and that the content might be interesting for them is by promoting the website. Not all the promotion of the website can be controlled. Some kind of promotion is out of control of the promotor of the website. This kind of promotion is free. And this kind of promotion is not completely controlable. The promotor of the website can't completely influence this kind of promotion. Uncontrolled promotion contains of promotion of the website by other people. An example is somebody who sents the link of the website to somebody else in an email. Another example is the website of a newspaper who discusses the topic of the website and provides the reader of the website of the newspaper with a link to the website of the promotor. This kind of promotion can be stimulated by special events and other activities to increase the promotion by other people. This kind of promotion stimulation is not used by a lot of people and this kind of promotion is not used a lot. The promotion by social events is a sort of new way of professional skill. An example of not coördinated promotion is the video of the audition of miss Susan Boyle on the British television talent competition Britain's got talent. People started to send eachother the link, newspapers published about the audition and more and more people uploaded the video on Youtube. The results were a world wide fame and probably over 250,000,000 views of the several videos. Nowadays almost all videos are removed and deleted by Youtube. 3. Controlled free promotion. A webmaster and a promotor of a website have several options to promote the website for free. Here are several options. 4. Forum An options is to talk about the website on a lot of forums. A forum can be used to help other people. The answers posted on the forum might show the skill and the experience of the poster. This might lead to visitors of website. 5. Social networks. An option is to open accounts on social networks. There are several famous websites that offer the opportunity to open an account. Twitter, Facebook and MySpace are wellknown. It is possible to put small messages on the pages of other members. These messages can attract the attention. This can lead to a visit of the website. It is probable possible to put a link to the website on the profile on the social networksite. 6. Youtube. It is possible to open an account on Youtube. Videos about the topic of the website with links to the website in the description of the video can be uploaded on Youtube. Writing comments to the videos of other members of Youtube can attract attention for the website. It is possible to put the link to the website in the profile of the page of the account of Youtube. 7. Paid promotion. Paid promotion can be seperated in advertising in ofline means like magazins and newspapers and advertisements newspapers, television and radio advertisements and printed advertisements like in a brochure and online activities like Google text advertisements and other advertisements and by email. The internet gives several opportunities to promote the website. Some of those opportunities need to be paid. Examples are small text advertisements on the page of Google next to search results. And Google gives the possibility to put small text advertisements on other websites. Promotion plan A usefull way to promote a website seems to be to use the way not digital stuff is promoted. Advertizers tend to make a promotion plan. With useful in the other sentence is ment a way that spreads the available sources like time, money, efforts, work and activity over the available means like advertising, free publicity, promotion and other means of advertising like spreading brochures, advertisements in newspapers and magazins. The promotion plan makes it possible to oversee the different possibilities, to count the available money, to see how much money and time each activity costs and the expected outcomes and results of the different ways to promote the website.
  18. Google allows to send the url of a website to them. The website with the page to send the url to Google allows to add some comments to the request to add the url of the website to the list with results of Google. There is no option to send more information about the content of the website to Google. The submission of a sitemap is not necessary. Google states that when the url of the start page is sent to Google the search engine finds the other parts of the website by itself. Maybe it is possible to sent the url's of the other parts of the website to Google to, just to be sure. A look at the page of Google that is used to send in an url can make the procedure more clear. The search terms: 'add url' will probably show a link to the page that can be used to send an url to Google.
  19. With all internet and forum respect for the moderator: Yordan says, that buying a domain is useless. That can be doubted. When a website is ordered there is the choice to use a domain name. This means, that the domain name has to be ordered before the package of the website. The second option in the billing sector after chosing a package is: I want to transfer my domain to Xisto - Web Hosting (Xisto) This means that the domain name needs to be available. And when a special domain name has been chosen and some speed is needed in order to save the domain name and to claim the domain name before somebody else does it can be usefull to order the domain name before somebody else does. So there are several cases in which the purchase of a domain name without a package can be usefull. It is not clear if a domain name can be contributed to a package after the package is bought. If a domain name can be contributed to a package after the purchase the domain name can be bought later. If this is not possible the domain name has to be bought before or together with the package. In some way it seems that it can be expected that a domain name always can be attached to a packet. Because this makes it possible to change the domain name of the package.
  20. Some options:1. Send a message that you cancel the order.2. Send a message that you like a refund for the charged credits.3. Start posting and get enough credits to pay a new order.4. Order again and pay immediately with the credits in the account.or:1. Send a message and ask for a delay of payment and ask for some more time to get enough credits.2. Make enough posts in a couple of days to pay the bill.In all cases it works the best to reply to the invoice and send a message to the employees of Xisto - Web Hosting to let them know you care and that you are willing to pay as soon as you have gained enough credits.or:1. Pay the dollars and add them to your billing account by using Paypal or 2CheckOut if this is possible.
  21. Hotmail The start of hotmail followed by the prosperity of the founders of hotmail. The story of the start of hotmail is something like this. Two employees had an idea. They thought that they were able to do something new with the internet. If things would work out like planned they would be able to start their own company. If they managed to get enough money to start their own business they would quit there jobs. One day one of the employees wanted to tell his mate about the project they were working on together. But he didn't want to use the email program of this job. Because he didn't want his boss to know about the project. He didn't want his boss to know that he thought of quitting his job. Till then emailprograms were joined to a website. A company that had a website would have an emailprogram of the webhost. At that moment one of the employees of the new project got the idea that to avoid the possibility that his boss could read his email it would be handy to have an emailprogram that would not be attached to a website and run by the webhost of the website. This is how the idea of hotmail was invented. The two employees continued to look for investors for their project. When the investors rejected the idea for the first project for the right reasons they started to talk about the project of making an independent emailprogram. After 24 meetings with and visits to investors at last they found somebody who was willing to give them money to start their emailproject. It was hard to develop the program, run the program and renew and improve it while the customers were using itt. But the founders managed to keep the emailprogram working and running more or less smoothly. After some time, when hotmail had become popular, Microsoft bought the website of hotmail. That is when and how the inventors of hotmail became rich.
  22. This is a way lots of things are done. And lots of things on internet are done like this too. There is a lot of information. And different people have different opinions. The tric is to find the program and the approach that meet your own needs the most and to find the way to do things that you like yourself the best.And this forum is an interesting place to discuss different ways things can be done. What this topic learns the reader is that it seems to be important to talk about opinions and information in order to get different views. These different opinions make it possible to get a well founded idea about something.The deliverance of the link makes it possible for interested people to read the article themselves and to comment on the information in the article.
  23. Actually your website looks very good. The use of html made it possible to create a very usefull and clear website.The next things to be done are:Filling the sections with content.Promote your website.Make your website known to possible interested visitors.Spending time to learn how to use and how to control Drupal can be rewarding on the long run. It is a piece of consideration what is the most important: finishing the website now and to start to attract new visitors or learning Drupal first in order to make a fresh start with the website.
  24. There seem to be several ways that can be offered to the visitor of a website to contact the webmaster online.1. write an emailname on the website.The visitors can use their own email account to send an emailmessage to the webmaster.2. make a guest book.Some websites offer guest books for free. It is possible to put a link on the website to the guestbook.3. make a form.The visitor can fill in a form. The visitor can send the form to the webmaster.The server will send the message to an email address of the webmaster.4. make a chat room.The disadvantage is that this only works when the webmaster is online at the same time with the visitor.5. put an address of a messenger program on the website.Like: msn, yahoo messenger, gmail messenger, AIM.6. host a forum.This sounds a bit overdone for usual feed back.
  25. An automatic reply can be set in the settings of gmail.com. And probably other email websites offer that possibility too.Some effort was made to code an example of a simple form using html.A sort of comment if the example is usefull will be nice.Sometimes a first example helps to make things more clear.It can help other people to give advice about a more advanced solution.
