Hosting the Stranger $90 Hosting the Stranger features ten powerful meditations on the theme of interreligious hospitality by eminent scholars and practitioners from the five different wisdom traditions: Jewish, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist and Islamic. By gathering thinkers from different religious traditions around the same timely topic of what it means to “host the stranger,” this text enacts the hospitality it investigates, facilitating a hopeful and constructive dialogue between the world’s major religions. The first part of the volume offers five different hermeneutic readings that each wrestle with what interreligious hospitality means and what it demands. The second part is divided equally between the five different religious perspectives on hosting the stranger, with two thinkers representing each religion. Together these essays remind us of the urgent need for interreligious hospitality, and more importantly, they testify to its ongoing possibility. |
What CPAs Need to Grasp Concerning Hosting Accounting Websites
If you've never actually set up a website for a accounting practice before the details can get somewhat frightening. There are some fundamental tricks that will make your journey into the present day a LOT easier. Creating accounting websites is like any other skill. It's easy once you take the time to learn how it's done. Here are several items to reflect on:
A Good Host is Hard to find :
Keep an eye out for a good package deal. Lot's of companies provide features like free domain names registrations or email hosting when you host your website with them. Some of them throw in tons of features you don't need, just to up their prices. Take some time to shop around a little. You'll find it's pretty easy to get a lot of solid comparative information by doing a few simple Google searches for keywords like "website hosting".
You'll find that if you arm yourself with some basic information choosing hosts for accounting websites isn't nearly as scary as it might seem. For example, most GoDaddy web hosting plans come with email and a certain amount of server space that you can store your data on (images, videos, etc). Network solutions offers a free domain name registration with their package. Godaddy charges extra. Other features frequently found in hosting packages include Google advertising credits, file transfer systems, and other useful features.
Keep in mind how much media you're going to be putting onto the site. Videos, large images, and high resolution color portable document files (PDFs) use up a lot of memory. If you plan on storing your client files online for remote access you'll need even more space. Select a plan that offers enough storage space for all the files you plan to store.
One bundled hosting feature that seems quite useful is Email, but many users don't really need it. A lot of accountants ultimately choose to use a "freemail" account, or a more sophisticated free solution like Google Apps.
Choosing Your Domain:
Picking a good domain name is key for your business. You don't want something that's too long, because then people won't remember it and it may not fit on business cards if it's too many characters long. Using important keywords in your domain name can be helpful in getting your website a better ranking in the search engines. Keywords such as your location (FL, Florida, Tampa, etc) or words that explain your service (accounting, CPA, or even very specific keyword combinations like AtlantaConstructionAccounting, etc). Always use a ".com" domain name, and if you must use punctuation to break the words up know that dashes are better than underscores. Domain name registration can be done separate from web hosting. Fee's vary. GoDaddy is a pretty cheap option, and Network Solutions is at the high end while smaller specialty registrars Domains For CPAs tend to take the middle ground. Domain registration fees are usually done on an annual basis, whereas web hosting is often done on a monthly basis.
Be cautious if a company allows you to register your domain name as part of a package with your web hosting. Make sure your hosting service isn't registering your domain in their name instead of yours. Sometimes this is done as a retention strategy and sometimes it's done out of sheer laziness but in the end the result is the same: you don't actually own your domain.
What the Heck is a CPanel?
You absolutely MUST have access to a cPanel. If you don't have administrative access to your domain controls you can't make changes to your domain settings and this means don't really own your domain. Your cPanel is your domains central nervous system, and it's vital that you be able to access it. It maps the domain to your website and your email to your inbox. There are all kinds of advanced features on your cPanel. It can be used to redirect pages and even point multiple domains to a single website. Most web hosting companies give you cPanel access, but some don't. Either way you'll probably never need to access it, but it's vital that you be able to. If you can't access you cPanel whoever does has de facto control of your website and your email, and this can really put you over a barrel.
SSL Certificates:
This is something the beginner-user may not be concerned with, but if you're going to be storing QuickBooks files online, or accepting credit card payments, then you'll want to listen up. Having an SSL Certificate (Secure Sockets Layer Certificate) can ensure your site visitors that any confidential information they submit through your site will be handled securely. You can purchase SSL Certificates from a number of companies such as VeriSign, GoDaddy and DigiCert. You've frequently seen secure pages, but you might not have been aware of it at the time. If you have ever noticed a small lock symbol in the lower-right-hand corner of your internet browser that's a sign that you are viewing a secure page. Failure to satisfactorily secure your client's uncompromisable info won't just cost you clients, it can also get you into terrible legal trouble. Accounting firms are financial institutions according to the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act and are lawfully required to take reasonable steps to protect their clients' uncompromisable information.
