HostMonster Review

Hostmonster Simple Scripts is cPanel tool for fast and simple installing of web applications. Web software included: wordpress, drupal, joomla, phpbb, b2evolution, mediawiki, moodle and lots of others. Simple scripts interface is not like Fantastico. Fantastico de luxe is integrated as cPanel tool and the interface is inside, while simplescripts tool is on their official site www.simplescripts.com. Don’t worry about securuty cause the connection is over SSL (secure sockets layer) (https://). The installer if configured can automatically create new database, set the folder or site where the script will be installed, setup random administrator password or password of your choice. Everything is setup by simplescripts including all files are placed, database tables setup and initial configuration is put. After the application is installed you can access it immediately and begin posting new content on your web site. Installation is very simple and consist of three easy step, it took around five minutes for the whole process. Overall it is excellent tool for installing apps.

Hostmonster nameservers are:
ns1.hostmonster.com
ns2.hostmonster.com

Do you know what happens when you type google.com in your website? The web browser uses the domain name system to find the server that have your website. Here is where the nameservers are needed. They give the IP address (unique number that every computer connected to the internet must have in order to communicate with each other connected device) of the web server where the browser connects and ask for the website. The server gives back the html code back to the browser where it is rendered and displayed. There is much more processes happening underneath. You need the above two servers (primary and secondary) you need to add them at your domain registrar in order your site to work. After you update the nameservers at your dns registrar clear the dns cache (google for solution) and wait a few hours in order the changes to propagate.
