Hello my Oga's here...

I have a little challenge...

I created a website for a client on a domain: www.sample.com - hosted and working perfectly fine...

Now, the client has another domain: www.sample2.com. He contacted me that I should redirect the first domain: www.sample.com to a subdomain on the second domain: www.sub.sample2.com.

Managing a domain redirect is not my problem. The problem here is that the files will still be maintained on the server hosting the www.sample.com while the subdomain: www.sub.sample2.com will only be the accessible url.

For instance: when you create a blog with blogger.com and then upgrade it to a tld while still maintaning using the blogger platform... Your files and contents are hosted on blogger while you still use a top-level-domain...

So, I need someone who can explain to me how I will handle it.

Thanks.

that should be easy all you need do is do a permanent redirect of the subdomain to the already existing domain so that once someone types the su bdomain url it automatically goes to the already existing url where the file exists and fetch. you would need to have access to the subdomain admin area to do this under url redirect.

Have you tried last joomla version bootstrap templates... you don't need anyone integrating it for you.

so no one can be of help so no one can be of help

Good to know that u doubt this. That is our selling point. We have 99.9% up time and we offer softaculous, multiple sql DBs, unltd cron, unltd subdomains, full ssh, unltd emails etc.

Thank you @Oluwatope

that is real expensive marketing stunt there

Being proactive is a very important thing to succeed against any form of adversary and challenge. unfortunately that is what we lack here. we prefer being reactive to being proactive. God help Nigeria

An indigenous arms industry in Nigeria?


President Muhammadu Buhari’s call to Nigeria’s Defence Ministry to outline a plan for the development of an arms industry for the country is thought-provoking. Many people have taken sides on the subject but there is more than meets the eye to the quest for an indigenous arms industry for Nigeria.

Conceptually, it is a good idea. Nigeria should have long come of age for the internal satisfaction of her arms needs, at least at a basic level. The arms industry ranges at different levels. A country may be capable of producing small arms such as pistols and revolvers and long guns like rifles, but depends on exports for heavy weapons, tanks and armoured personnel carriers. One need not be a defence expert to realize that, by its very nature, the arms industry is a highly sensitive one. Major arms-producing countries tie in their national interests to their exports. During the Cold War, the former Soviet Union and the Warsaw group of Communist countries used their arms industries to promote the expansion of Communism by selling to entities that toed their line. For example, so-called revolutionary movements fighting, even if by proxy, governments backed by capitalist Western states got their support.

Nigeria’s recent unwholesome experiences in her bid to weaponize her military to fight Boko Haram and other insurgents are well known. It did not suit American/Western interests to arm her armed forces. There are indications that they probably scuttled the efforts of the Jonathan government to acquire weapons elsewhere.

Is Nigeria ready for an indigenous weapons industry? An arms industry is a very different ballgame from almost every other type of industry. Nigeria may have the experts but many interests, both local and foreign, may collude against them. History may help out here. As the first indigenous Quartermaster-General of the Nigerian Army, Lieutenant-Colonel Emeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu realized that the army was depending on low-quality British military products. He played a very active role in reversing the policy and the subsequent engagement of the German arms producer, Fritz Werner, to set up an ordnance factory in Kaduna. That factory was the foundation of the Defence Industries Corporation of Nigeria. The British never forgave Ojukwu for the effrontery to attempt to remove Nigeria from her sphere of influence and he paid for it during the civil war. So if Nigeria must have her arms industry, President Buhari and his planners should take a long-term view of these considerations:

The Western, and even Chinese and Russian, military-industrial complex will be uncomfortable with such an industry. Apart from the billions they stand to lose, a Nigerian arms industry, if well run, will limit their domination in the country’s internal affairs and strengthen her diplomatic muscle.

Then issues of corruption, ethnic interests and terrorism should be factored in. From an economic perspective, is the project viable? It is doubtful if Nigeria will be producing solely for internal consumption. USA has the world’s most powerful armed forces but the millions of bombs, bullets and planes her industries roll out are not just for their internal needs. Were it so, the country’s military-industrial complex would have folded up long ago. Strategic thinking is called for. Boko Haram will end one day. If Nigeria’s arms industry comes on stream, will it compete favourably on the world market? Hopefully, Nigeria is not anticipating another war and although security challenges will inevitably crop up, what will the proposed industry be aimed at? One has to be brutally frank here: generally speaking, most arms producers anticipate that the bullets they produce will be, save in exceptional circumstances, shot in the bodies of foreigners, not their citizens.
During the Nigerian civil war, Biafra went indigenous to meet her arms needs. She took on the Nigerian armada which was outfitted by foreign arms producers. Can Mr. President and his defence planners tap into the technical savvy behind innovations such as the home-made Biafran explosives, e.g., ogbunigwe? I admit, times have changed and dynamics must be upgraded. But the civil war era blueprint and surviving actors can be consulted for guidance.

The biggest threat to an indigenous Nigerian arms industry will come from Nigerians. It is unpatriotic Nigerians who will sell top-secret weaponization plans to foreign interests; it is unpatriotic Nigerians who will access these arms to insurgents; it is unpatriotic Nigerians who will downgrade the quality of weapon production programmes; it is unpatriotic Nigerians who will introduce sentiments that have nothing to do with national interest to this project.

A very bitter truth

2011 account up for grab. giveaway price of 10million but if its needed for political benefit 50million

I believe many must have seen the thread on FP about ex gov. Fashola 78million naira website contract. https://www.nairaland.com/2523906/official-press-statement-former-governor


Bearing in mind that being a government contract, the price would definitely be high. i cant imagine if i also get that kind of contract and i don't give a relatively high price compared to regular jobs but isn't 78 million naira in this case too much?? Please let us discuss without any sentiment or bias but strictly from professional standpoint. Thanks

Hmmmm!

This really touch my soul.

I need to stop the act.

i was almost moved to tears when i first read it as i tried picturing the scenario and the kind of thought of dejection and sorrow within the mind of the victim of circumstance

i was expecting NL mod to push this on fp or does it not worth seeing by millions

A poor widow with 12 children?
Instead of buying banana, someone should educate her on family planning.

Lolz a widow once had husband who probably provided for the need of the family until his demise.

I really don't know where to post this nor the title to give it but i felt every one of us should read this and decided to post it here after getting permission from the original writer.

[b] Irony of life!!! The rich getting richer n the poor getting poorer.
Most times when we walk into big malls, boutiques, supermarkets, we never question their prices. We pay exactly what we see on the price tags and even hand out tips to the staff.
But the moment we are out of these shops and want to buy banana, our bargaining game gets off to the roof. Poor widow with 12 hungry children at home tells you banana is N100. She even takes out her time to explain how difficult it was for her to even buy it, how the economy is so tough.
But we insist that if it's not N50, we are not paying. Some of us even step back into our cars and make to drive away. But because 'half bread is better than 'chin chin', this woman is forced to call you back and sell to you at little or no gain. In her heart, she cries, she's worried about how she'll survive with her children. She silently reassures herself that 'It's well.
God will definitely provide.'' While you happily chop the luscious banana. Take some seconds out and think about this, guys. Please don't bargain hard with small vendors like this. They do business not to buy designer bags, Gucci shoes but to LIVE and EAT!!!
We're all guilty at one point or the other but we can always change our mindset towards these people that seem poor but hardworking.

Since its like topics that now makes FP whether meaningful or meaningless do have some moderator's name quoted. I think this topic really deserves FP more than many on the FP so i am calling attention of lalasticlala to this.

after reading about the attack on the home town of the new CAS. i without no doubt believe what the OBSERVE is saying above....i hope they are replied appropriately

Just noticed this post from a page i follow on facebook THE OBSERVE and i cant but agree with it.

HOW YOU CAN USE A HOSTING ACCOUNT
MEANT FOR ONE WEBSITE FOR MULTIPLE SITES
Well maybe you don't know that you can actually
use a hosting account meant for one website for
multiple website. Here is how its possible! Its not
a cheat though, after all how will a web host give
the clue for her clients to cheat her out.
Okay, you have ordered an account which is
meant only to host one domain name i.e one
website but definitely you will have access to
create a number of subdomains (dwebconsults
allows unlimited subdomains).
Now you may ask, what is a subdomain? lets say
your original domain hosted on your hosting
account is www.dwebconsults.com. A subdomain
is of the form xyz.dwebconsults.com. A sure you
have seen examples of this many times.
So after creating this subdomain, you can now
put your new website file folder under this
subdomain so that anybody can access this
website with the subdomain address. I know you
are saying but i want a unique domain name for
my new website. Relax! we are getting there.
Having set your subdomain, now you can register
the unique domain name you want for your new
website e.g www.nosebook.com. After doing that,
from the domain administration area you then
redirect it to your subdomain address. So when
someone accesses www.nosebook.com , he is
redirected (without knowing at all) to the
subdomain xyz.dwebconsults.com and your site
pops up.
You see how simple it is. The beauty of it all is
that the person visiting your website will not even
have any iota knowledge what is happening in the
background.

ZinoFego:
There are quite a number of websites offering free good templates.

What you intend ripping is someone's sweat over the years and I think that is not appropriate.

If a client wants a great website, he should be willing to pay. You can then factor the cost of the template in.

There are several websites that offer their premium templates of over 50 for $50. And your membership which is usually 3 months will be enough to download all the over 50 templates.

as the saying goes that you don't give what you don't have. pls just follow Zinofego advice.

you have more links to information you need now @ OP

mayorisaac:
Have been hearing about SEO here and there and have tried to read about it online but i still don't get it, can somebody please help me explain it.
Thank you in advance.

Am sure you already know SEO means Search Engine Optimisation.
Alright now what does this means? first let me ask you. have you ever tried to search for something on google? of course yes you said that in your post.

Just like you many other people are searching for one thing or the other on the internet and they do so by using words that are related to what they are looking for. Take for instance you want to host a website and you need a webhosting company to use. You will most likely search for terms like "reliable web hosting company, cheap web host, fast hosting provider, shared website hosting" and so on. so what google does is to now match your search words with websites that has such word in their content and metatags.

Just like you, many more people are searching for web hosting services hence the most commonly used words by the average people searching for such service is called keywords.

Search engine optimisation is now simply you having those keywords in your website content and metatags so that google or whatever search engine can easily see your website and list it when people are searching for something related to your site.

But its not that simple. this is because there are many websites out there with those keywords just like yours and some even pay Search engines huge money so that they can be listed first page of search result so that people can see them before any other.

Also many other things are put into consideration since many websites now fulfill the first requirement of having keywords in their content.
I hope have given you some hints?

VPS- Virtual Private Server.
What is it all about? Many have been hearing about VPS but do not really know what it is all about. I will be explaining VPS to us in the most simplest and familiar illustration.

Think of a typical dormitory in military school/institution or even some some secondary school hostels. Its a very long hall like room with beds/bunks arranged on both sides of the room on a long straight line.

Every member of a particular dormitory share the same room but each having his assigned bed space and corner. Everything is shared, toilet, kitchen, bathroom, just name it and its not even guaranteed you will have it when you need it because someone else might be using it when you need it. This is the typical shared hosting.

Now remember in our university days, in most cases we have a very big house (hostel) that is divided into different private self contained rooms. This gives each occupant a high level of privacy and freedom to do whatever he likes in his room without interference from anyone unlike the dormitory occupants. This is exactly what a VPS is like.

Finally we have a flat which is a whole house with different rooms and amenities all for just one person who paid for it. He has all the privileges a self contained occupant has but with extra privilege of owning the whole house and can do far more with it than the former. This is a typical dedicated server.

With this illustrations above a VPS gives you the privilege of a dedicated server but at a lesser cost that you would normally pay for a dedicated server.
It is suitable for you if your website or application requires more dedicated resources and privilege than a shared hosting can offer. You dont share server resources with anyone else as all resources accompanying your vps is fully for you only. You can install your own operating system, reboot your server. Just anything you could do with your personal computer.

And above all you have higher security from hackers so try ordering a VPS today and see the difference.

Cloud Hosting Service in a very simple term is a hosting service in which 2 or more servers are set up such that each server's individual resources are pooled together as one and as such they all function as one.

The beauty of cloud hosting is such that a client who hosted his or her software, website e.t.c on a cloud server will enjoy tremendous resources and computing power from all the individual servers that make up the cloud service. The common and widely use hosting service is the shared hosting in which many clients share the resources and computing power of just one server.

But with a cloud service clients enjoy the benefit of a more powerful platform that ensures maximum reliability as the cloud service is powered by many servers as against just one.

So what are the specific advantage of cloud hosting??

Flexibility and scalability; extra resource can be
accessed as and when required. This is made possible because of the number of servers involved.

Cost-effectiveness; whilst extra resources is available when
needed, clients only pay for what they are using
at a particular time.

Reliability; due to the number of available
servers, if there is a problems with any of the involved servers, the
resource will be shifted so that clients are
unaffected and everything would be working fine as if nothing happened at all.

Ease of setup; one would have thought with the level of sophistication involved, setting up a cloud hosting account would be difficult but not at all. Just the much you would do to set up a shared hosting account is all that is required.

Cloud hosting is not just 99.9% reliable but rather 100%. However, let us just be humble enough to say nothing created by man is 100% accurate.

I want to believe when next you have a need for hosting you would rather go for cloud hosting and you will have total confidence that you are on the most reliable web hosting platform.
