Setting up your site with ViralHosts’ cPanel

A few weeks ago our head Server Technician Tycho switched ViralHosts’ hosting panel to cPanel. We’re really glad we made this move as we got a lot of positive feedback these last few weeks. Now we want to help you get started with it by (1) setting up your hosting, (2) creating your site and (3) uploading it via an FTP client.

First, log into ViralHosts (or register if you haven’t joined yet), hover the Hosting Section button and click ‘Log Into cPanel’. This will direct you to your cPanel. You don’t need any username or password to log into your cPanel.

Step 1: Setting up your hosting

The very first step should be to set up an FTP account. In cPanel, under ‘Files’, click the ‘FTP Accounts’ button.

Enter the login and password of your choice, enter your password again and leave the other fields as they are, unless you want to specify a directory the user can access or determine a quota. If you aren’t too sure what this is all about, leave the ‘Directory’ field as blank and the ‘Quota’ fields as unlimited.

Once this is done, you should set up your domain name. You can choose to use your own domain name (check out NameCheap if you don’t have one yet, or any other domain registrar) or pick a ViralHosts subdomain. In cPanel, click the ‘Addon Domains’ button, enter the domain name you’ve purchased, your FTP username and password, and your password again.

Very important: you need to get your domain name registrar to point the domain name to our servers:

ns1.viralhosts.com
ns2.viralhosts.com

Your domain name may take a few hours to be set up. You just need to be a little patient.

To add a subdomain the process is simpler. In cPanel, click the ‘Subdomain’ button. Enter the subdomain name of your choice and the directory you want your site to be located, unless your site is located in the root folder.

Step 2: Creating your site

If you’re a free member, you don’t have access to any of our site builders, but you can of course build yourself a page or site and upload it via an FTP client. There are lots of different site builders that you can use:

– Microsoft FrontPage is a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) HTML editor included in most versions of Microsoft Office. We only recommend you to use FrontPage if you have a good knowledge of HTML.

– Adobe Dreamweaver is another WYSIWYG HTML editor but can also be used as an FTP client. Like for FrontPage, you need to have some knowledge of HTML.

– XSite Pro is a website design software that helps you build a site even if you don’t know much about HTML. We’ve used this site builder in the past and strongly recommend it to you.

There are lots of different, good and bad site builders on the web. You can browse around, purchase one and use it… or simply get your hands on a ViralHosts Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond or Elite Membership and get access to RV Site Builder and SiteReptile Website Builder, two of the web’s most popular sites builders. As a reminder, the Silver Membership is at only $17 a month, and the Gold Membership even less if you take advantage of the one-time offer! Head to the ‘Upgrade Section’ inside the member area for more information.

Step 3: Uploading your site

Once your site is created, you can upload it via the FTP client of your choice: FileZilla, SmartFTP or any other FTP client you like. Let’s do this with FileZilla. Once you’ve launched the program, you need to fill in the 3 top following fields as follow:

– Host: [your_account_name].ViralHosts.com
– Username: [your_ftp_login]@[your_account_name].ViralHosts.com
– Password: [your_ftp_password]

You should leave the ‘Port’ field blank unless you experience some issues. In that case you may contact our support team. Then click the ‘Quickconnect’ button.

‘Local site’ on the left is your computer side, and ‘Remote site’ on the right your web hosting side. You simply need to select the files (or folder, if you want your site to be in a specific directory) and drag them from the left side to the right side. The bottom section will show you the files being transferred. This is a fairly delicate process so make sure you take your time to properly upload your files.

Once the transfer is complete, you may visit your site at the domain or subdomain you previously set up.

If you experience any issue, please contact our support team at Reply2Colin. If you’re a beginner, make sure you carefully go through these steps… and remember that Albert Einstein said: “You never fail until you stop trying.”

To your success,

9 Reasons to Join ViralHosts

Saturday, November 7th, 2009

A few days ago we asked some of our most active ViralHosts members why they find the system so valuable. It’s always good to know what actual members think of its strengths and benefits. For those who don’t know what ViralHosts is, we define it as an all-in-one web hosting, traffic generation, list building and mailing system targeted at internet marketers and alike. Here is a compilation of the answers we got:

1 ) ViralHosts is free to join. Even if the real value of the system is in the upgraded memberships, being able to try the system before you purchase is definitely a plus. Even if you miss out on the one-time offer, you can upgrade very easily inside the member area. All memberships are great value.

2 ) ViralHosts provides marketer-friendly, reliable web hosting to anyone who joins. Hosting is a highly important, tangible requirement to anyone’s online success. If you want to be successful on the web, you must have a website. This is non-negotiable! Do you know any internet marketer who hasn’t got a website or a blog?

3 ) The hosting section is based on cPanel, which is one of the most popular hosting panels in the world. The support is great and as an upgraded member you also have access to an auto-installer system for WordPress and lots of other scripts as well as not one but two website builders with more than 900 templates. With ViralHosts, setting up a website or blog is just a matter of minutes!

4 ) By referring other members you not only have the opportunity to make some cash but also build a downline from 5 to 7 levels deep and email it every 5 to 7 days. The money is in the list, they say… Well, here is a great opportunity to build your own list almost on auto-pilot and increase your online income.

5 ) You earn cash when your referrals decide to upgrade. ViralHosts has a high commission structure that allows you to earn recurring commissions and make some extra cash. The system also pays you from 5 to 20 cents per thousand page views on your website or blog and from 5 to 20 cents per thousand from all your referrals.

6 ) If you are an upgraded member, you can email from 3,000 to 6,000 random members every 3 days! That’s 30,000 to 60,000 emails sent per month! Keep in mind that most ViralHosts members are internet marketers and alike so think of all the qualified leads you could have! You can be in profit with only one sale.

7 ) You can generate traffic to your website or blog with the text and banner ads. You simply have to purchase credits and design your ads. There are lots of different ways to generate traffic with ViralHosts… and it’s cheap and super easy! ViralHosts has the potential to become your ultimate traffic generation tool.

8 ) Even if you already have a website or a blog, the web hosting section remains valuable because you can easily get quality backlinks. You know how important inbound links are to search engines. They will help your website or blog rank better in search engines and build a strong, durable online presence.

9 ) The overall value of the system is far worth the price, especially if you get your hands on the one-time offer. For only $197 per year you get quality web hosting, a traffic generation tool, a downline builder and most importantly a system mailer that allows you to send 30,000 emails per month! That’s 53 cents per day, and you can send 360,000 emails in a year (plus all the people in your downline)!

As you can see, and we’re glad to have this feedback from our members, ViralHosts is truly a powerful web service. As an internet marketer, affiliate manager or network marketer, you must be nuts to miss out on this system! If you haven’t joined yet, register now and take full advantages of all the features and benefits.
