Affiliates: Affiliates are other websites that you link to and they link to you. When someone visits your website or their website, they can
see the link and that way you'll get more hits. Having affiliates is one of the best things you can get for your website.
Bandwidth: Bandwidth is, well, let me tell you the most important thing. Whenever another site uploads something from your site, such as direct linking an image,
they'll be using your bandwidth. If say, your bandwidth limit is 1000, if it exceeds that limit your site is likely to be suspended. I can't tell you much about bandwidth, but
when YOU direct link an image, etc. from someone else's site, you're using their bandwidth and that's why direct linking is not a good thing.
Counter: A counter basically counts the number of hits you get. Most counters count every page view as 1 hit, while others only count individual computers as 1 hit.
CSS(Cascading Style Sheets): CSS is useful for colors, text areas, etc. You can use a CSS page to customize the colors, fonts, or scrollbar of your website. To learn more about CSS, go to Lissa Explains.
Direct Linking: Direct linking is bad. Okay, pretend you saw a free image on someone else's website. And you wanted it. Then you look at the "Properties" and you copy the
URL, and use that to display the image on your own website. That's called direct linking, and it's bad because you'll be using the other person's bandwidth, and if that was a good site
you should not be hurting it. And if the owner decides to delete the image on their site, then it'll be a broken image on your site. So you won't have any broken images on your website if you
don't direct link. But direct linking can sometimes be excused for image links to another site, or affiliating buttons.
Forum: A forum is a place where people post things, basically a chat room of some kind with rules. This is my forum.
Guestbook: A guestbook is where a guest posts a message if they like your website, or if they want to comment about it. It is not a forum.
KB/MB/GB: KB stands for KiloByte. That's not much space, and I doubt any host offers that less. MB stands for MegaByte. Usually free webhosts offer
space in MegaBytes. One MB is worth 1000 KB. GB stands for GigaBytes. 1 GB is worth A LOT of space. You can probably use that for any big site. However, not much
free hosts offer THAT much space.
Moderators/Administrators: Okay, you basically see these in forums. An administrator has the most power. A moderator basically help the administrator(admin).
Redirection Domain Names: Usually people use redirecting domain names if they cannot afford a ".com". Redirecting domain names can be things like "http://www.blabla.something.com". Eonlight Valley used to have a redirection domain at "www.eonlightvalley.net.tc".
The downside is that every time you refresh the page, it refreshes to the page the domain name was redirected to.
SSI(Server Side Includes): SSI is extremely useful if you have more than just a few pages in your website. If you use SSI, then you will only have to update one file to update everything in every page except for the individual contents. If you want to learn more, visit my SSI Help page.
TagBoards: A tagboard is a little chat room on a website. There's no login systems, you just have to enter a nickname.
Webhosts: A webhost is a site that hosts your site. You edit your website on their site in you file manager. There are free webhosts and paid webhosts. Usually the paid webhosts offer
better hosting, but many use free webhosts until their website because popular enough to move to a paid webhost. For a free webhost, you get a subdomain. A subdomain is something such as http://www.(yourhost's name).com/(your username).
If someone asked what another person who uses FreeWebs for their free website, they'd say, "http://www.freewebs.com/theirusername/". A domain name is something like "http://www.blabla.com" or ".net" or ".org", etc. If a website's name was
Kittyland, their domain name (if they have one) will be likely to be "http://www.kittyland.com" or ".net", etc. (Please note that I made up the name Kittyland)
Webmaster/Webmistress: A webmaster is male, and a webmistress is a girl. He/she is the owner of a website.
