Making an "Under Construction" page

2026-10-01T06:53:13Z

Andrew: /* Edit the text */

[[file:Underconstructionpage.png|thumb|What the template page looks like unedited]]
Here's an quick under construction page which you can get set up on your hosting package in just a few minutes. You'll also learn some useful skills along the way!
=Make the page=
All you need to make a basic HTML page is a text editor. On Windows, the easiest option is Notepad. On Mac, TextEdit is the default choice.

Please '''don't use Word''' to make your page. It won't work.

Open your text edit, then copy the text in the block below and paste it into your text editor.
<html>
<head>
<title>Under construction</title>
<meta name="description" content="This website is under construction">
<meta name="keywords' content="my website, my business, my products">
<meta name="viewport" content="height=device-height, initial-scale=1">
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<style>
/* Container holding the image and the text */
.page {
position: relative;
text-align: center;
color: black;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
overflow: hidden;
height: 100vh;
}
/* Centered text */
.centered {
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-45%, -65%);
color: black; /*the immediate background of the text is white in the image, so we set the text to black explicitly to preserve contrast*/
font-size: 2em;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="page">
<img src="Background.png" alt="Under construction page">
<div class="centered">
<p>
My website
<br />
Coming soon
</p>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

==Edit the content==
There are a few things you can tweak and personalise in the code. First, find the following part in the head of the page:

<title>Under construction</title>
<meta name="description" content="This website is under construction">
<meta name="keywords' content="my website, my business, my products">

HTML tags look like <this>. That's called a "start tag". An "end tag" looks like </this> with a forward slash before the word. Start tags indicate the start of some format or effect, and end tags end it. If you look at the code block above, you'll see the "title" start and end tags, marking the title of the page '''Under construction'''. You can change the title of your page to be anything you want by changing the text between the title tags.

Next there's a special kind of tag, the "meta" tag. Meta tags are special because they don't have end tag partners. They also perform many functions, but the ones we're interested in are '''meta name="description"''' and '''meta name="keywords"'''.
These tell search engines what your page is about, and can also be used by assistive technologies like screen readers used by people with vision loss.

Each of these meta tags has a '''content''' field, which you can edit to contain information about your website. The important things to remember are:

* Only edit the text in the content="" field, '''between''' the quotation marks.
* Key words and phrases should be separated with commas.

===Edit the text===
The main lines "My website" and "Coming soon" are easy to change. Look for the following, toward the end of the code:

<p>
My website
<br />
Coming soon
</p>

You can change this text as well. Some tips to help you out:

The "p" tag indicates a paragraph.

The "br" tag is another special tag that doesn't need a partner. This is called a "self-closing" tag.

The "br" tag creates a line '''br'''eak, or new line, like pressing enter on a keyboard when you're typing normal text.

HTML ignores normal "enter" line breaks, so for short lines of text, you can use the "br" tag to end a line.

For longer lines, it's best to put each line between its own set of "p" tags.

===Remove comments if you want to===
In the code above you will have noticed text written <code>/* between marks like this */</code>. These are comments. They are not displayed or interpreted by the viewer's web browser, so it's safe to remove them if you'd like to. We've only added them to help you understand what the code does.

==Save the file==
<div style="overflow:hidden">
[[file:Notepad_encoding.jpeg|thumb|Be sure to choose UTF-8 encoding before saving]]
When you've finished customising your page, it's time to save the file.
===In Notepad===
Click '''File > Save As...'''

For '''Encoding''' select '''UTF-8''' (See the screenshot to the right).

For the file name, enter '''index.html'''

Take note of where you will be saving the file, and click '''Save'''.
</div>

===In TextEdit===
<div style="overflow:hidden">
[[file:Textedit.png|thumb|In TextEdit, Save the file as HTML]]
Click '''File > Save'''.

For '''Save As''' enter '''index.html'''.

For '''Plan text encoding''' select '''UTF-8'''. (See the screenshot to the right)

Click '''Save'''.

</div>

=Download the background image=
[https://www.imaginet.co.za/kb/images/2/26/Background.png Right-click this link] and click '''Save link as...''' and then click '''Save'''.

=Upload to your hosting package=
Both '''index.html''' and '''Background.png''' must be uploaded to the '''httpdocs''' folder on the hosting server.

There are a few ways to upload your files, but if you've never done this before, we recommend [[Manage files via Plesk control panel|using the hosting control panel]].

For other options, see [[Uploading your website]].

==Accessing MyDot with FTP details==
You may need to grant MyDot access to a web developer or designer, technician, IT officer, etc. In this case it might be appropriate to give them the FTP details for your hosting package.

'''Remember''' that FTP details are the keys to accessing and changing your website and hosted data, so only share this info with authorised and trusted people.

To access MyDot with FTP details, use:

your '''domain name''' as the username. Don't include the www. Enter your domain name only, like '''example.com'''.

</ul>
|}

=POP3 vs IMAP=

Understanding the differences between POP3 and IMAP is the most important step toward taking control of your mail and performing a complete and safe backup.
{{:POP3_vs_IMAP}}

Your emails are stored in your mail client as a database or a collection of files. Different mail clients and different versions of each mail client might store mail differently.

=Mail clients=

A ''mail client'' is the program you use to send and receive emails.

The most popular choices are Microsoft's ''Outlook'', and Mozilla's ''Thunderbird''.

Account settings are very similar in all mail clients, but the exact phrasing or name of each setting might differ between different programs, or between different versions of the same program.

==Check your mail client version==

The first step in backing up your emails is determining which version of which mail client you're using.

===Outlook===

Take a look at [[Which version of Outlook am I using]] to determine which Version of Outlook you're using.

===Thunderbird===

Click the main menu button, then go to the '''Help''' menu and choose '''Troubleshooting Information'''. In the new tab that opens, look for the version number under '''Application Basics'''.

===Apple Mail===

Open the Mail app, and click the '''Mail''' menu. Choose '''About Mail''' to see the version you're using.

==Check whether your mail client is set up to use POP3 or IMAP==

To find out which you're using, you'll need to check your email '''account settings'''. If you're not sure how to do this, click the name of your mail client below for instructions:

* [[POP3_vs_IMAP#Outlook|Outlook]]
* [[POP3_vs_IMAP#Thunderbird|Thunderbird]]
* [[POP3_vs_IMAP#Apple_mail|Apple mail on MacOS]]

=The backup process=
The process for backing up your emails depends on your mail client, and what you want to achieve.

==For all mail clients==
===If you want to transfer your domain and hosting===
Your emails can not be transferred automatically, and we therefore recommend backing up your mail before the transfer begins. If you've been using POP3 to receive your mail, you already have local copies of your messages, but it's still a good idea to make a backup. If you've been using IMAP, we've written a guides on creating local email backups with various mail clients. Once you've backed up your emails and website, you're ready to begin the transfer process, and our helpdesk agents and customer service team are ready to assist you during every step of the process.
===If you want backups for disaster recovery===
* Choose up a [https://www.imaginet.co.za/product/products/cloud.html Stratus Cloud Backup service]
* Contact Imaginet and inform us of the package you've chosen.
* Our helpdesk agents will guide you through the process of [[Setting up your Stratus Backup service|setting up your Stratus Backup service]].
* Configure the backup program to back up your PST file according to a schedule that suits you.
* See the following section for tips for creating a disaster recovery plan.
===If you want encrypted backups for POPIA compliance===
* Choose up a [https://www.imaginet.co.za/product/products/cloud.html Stratus Cloud Backup service]
* Contact Imaginet and inform us of the package you've chosen.
* Our helpdesk agents will guide you through the process of [[Setting up your Stratus Backup service|setting up your Stratus Backup service]].
* Create a strong password for your encrypted backup. Your emails will be backed up and the data in the cloud will be encrypted with POPIA-compliant AES encryption.
* Configure the backup program to back up your data according to a schedule that suits you.
==If you're using Outlook==
We do not recommend using Outlook. The data files it uses to store your emails (PST and OST files) are incredibly prone to corruption and data loss. This is so common, in fact, that Microsoft provides [https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/office/repair-outlook-data-files-pst-and-ost-25663bc3-11ec-4412-86c4-60458afc5253 special software] for "fixing common problems". Your valuable data should not be susceptible to so many "common problems" that you need special tools.
If you ''do'' need to use Outlook though, we've got your back. Take a look at the info below for guidance specific to Outlook.
===If you want to transfer your domain and hosting===
====For IMAP accounts====
* Configure Outlook to download complete messages
* Create a new PST file by following the [[Everything_you_need_to_know_about_email_backups#Creating_your_first_local_backup|steps below]].
* Copy and paste your emails and/or folders from your current inbox to the new PST folder in Outlook.
* Back up your website and send the backup to Imaginet for upload.
* Transfer your domain.
* Set up new '''POP3''' email accounts in Outlook using the settings provided by Imaginet.
* Configure your mail client to delete email from the server after a suitable amount of time.
====For POP3 accounts====
* Export your PST File by following the [[Everything_you_need_to_know_about_email_backups#Creating_your_first_local_backup|steps below]].
* Back up your website and send the backup to Imaginet for upload.
* Transfer your domain.
* When the transfer is complete, simply change your email account settings to those provided by Imaginet.
* Configure your mail client to delete email from the server after a suitable amount of time.

==Developing a 3-2-1 backup plan==

The gold standard for data protection and disaster recovery, the 3-2-1 plan simply means that you should:
* Have '''3''' copies of all your important data -- the main version you work with, and 2 backups.
* Use '''2''' different types of storage for your backups. For example, a cloud backup, and an external drive or flash stick.
* Keep '''1''' backup off-site, preferably in the cloud.

===Backup storage===
It's worth considering the type of storage you use for your backups. While cloud backups are relatively immune to data loss, physical media like hard drives, solid state storage (SSDs USB flash media, SD cards, etc.), and optical media (CDs, DVDs, Blu Ray, etc) can be vulnerable to various types of corruption, even when not being used. Physical disruption of the physical "bits" (the units that store the actual 0s and 1s of digital data) leads to corruption, and storage media can slowly lose data with time, even when they're stored safely and not used often. This is known as ''bit rot''.

* '''Optical discs''' are prone to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_rot disc rot] as they age, and the reflective layer and pigments undergo chemical degradation. This makes optical discs unsuitable for backup and archival purposes. If you choose to back up any data on optical media, it's important to replace the discs often.

* '''Flash and other solid state''' uses electrical charge to store bits in very small components [https://www.snia.org/sites/default/files/SSSI_NAND_Reliability_White_Paper_0.pdf which can wear out with time]. Different types of flash components are also susceptible to gradual [https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7056062 loss of charge], and these problems become more pronounced with larger volume drives which use ever smaller physical bits. It's therefore important that you '''check your storage devices at least once a year'''.

* '''Mechanic hard drives''' store data in magnetic domains on physical disc platters, which are prone to physical damage. Being bumped or dropped, being in use during a power failure, or being exposed to very strong magnetic fields can all result in data loss. Physical hard drives should be stored in static-free padded containers, and checked for consistency often.

* ''' All storage media''' are susceptible to data loss due to [https://web.stanford.edu/group/lockss/resources/2008-06_Predicting_Archival_Life_of_Removable_Hard_Disk_Drives.pdf exposure to high temperatures or high humidity]. Your choice of where to store your physical drives is therefore very important. Always store your backup devices in a cool, dry place, preferably in a sealed padded container with some desiccant like silica gel (silica cat litter is a good choice since it's cheap and easy to find).

===Scheduling regular backups===
====Windows====
# Create a [https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/create-a-recovery-drive-abb4691b-5324-6d4a-8766-73fab304c246 System recovery drive] to restore your Windows system.
# [[https://www.imaginet.co.za/kb/index.php?title=Setting_up_your_Stratus_Backup_service#Creating_backup_schedules|Schedule cloud backups in your Stratus backup software]]
# Manually copy your important files to an external storage device.
====Linux and Unix-like====
# Use a utility like Timeshift to create and schedule system snapshots.
# [[Setting_up_your_Stratus_Backup_service#Creating_backup_schedules|Schedule cloud backups in your Stratus backup software]]. Clients are available for Debian-based distros, as well as RHEL, CentOS, and FreeBSD.
# Utilities like Borgbackup or Déjà Dup can be used to back up user files, or you can create a cron job to run a script to back up your files.

====Testing and maintaining your backup data====
So you've done the responsible thing and backed up your data to the cloud, and made a second backup on a physical device. What now?
It's a good idea to test your backup devices periodically.

* Windows CHKDSK can be used to test the file systems your storage media, and the PowerShell module PsFCIV can be used to compute and check file hashes to verify integrity.
* On Linux systems, <kbd>fsck</kbd> can be used to test your storage media, and utilities like <kbd>md5sum</kbd> can generate hashes which can be saved to a file, which you can check later using the <kbd>--check</kbd> option.

While MD5 hashes are not ''secure'' they are fast, and are suitable for simple integrity tests.

==Encrypting your backups==
Stratus cloud backup can automatically encrypt your backed up data with strong AES encryption. Simply set a strong password when you set up your backups.

'''Remember:''' The point of encryption is that it can't be cracked, so '''there is no way to recover your data if you forget your password.'''

If you want to encrypt your local backups as well, for peace of mind, or POPIA compliance, there are free tools available.

* On Windows, you can use [https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/device-encryption-in-windows-ad5dcf4b-dbe0-2331-228f-7925c2a3012d BitLocker], which is [https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/technet-magazine/ff404223(v=msdn.10)?redirectedfrom=MSDN easy to enable] for external and internal storage devices.

* On Linux, LUKS and VeraCrypt are popular choices for full disk encryption.

Search Engine Optimisation

2025-09-18T12:23:29Z

Andrew: /* More resources */

The first step towards getting your site ready for Google's search bots is designing your web site according
to a set of basic guidelines; Google's guidelines for indexing your site are available at
http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=35769 and further information is
available at http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/?hl=en

=Basic Guidelines=
* Make sure that the links on your pages are accurate -- every page of your site should be reachable from at least one static text link, and you should avoid links which don't work.
* Make your site informative -- use accurate copy, and be sure to include keywords in the copy.
* Make your site easy for users to navigate -- create a sitemap page which details the structure of your site, with links to all pages (note that these sitemaps are not the same as Sitemap files, which will be discussed later). Remember that if there are more than 100 links, you should split the map into 2 pages.
* Keywords -- keywords are words which your site users would use to search for your website. Google searches for keywords in all parts of your site, so remember to include words in your copy which you think users will use to find your site. More about other places to use keywords later.
* Name files accurately -- name the actual files of your website using descriptive words, and not just random identifiers. so a picture of a pair or Acme shoes should be called something like "Red_acme_shoes.jpeg" and not "pic123.jpeg"
* Use correct HTML, and if using PHP, keep the number and length of parameters down.
* Use tags correctly -- Use accurate content for the title tag, such as "Mimi's shoes -- a range of Acme, Generix, and Shinybrand shoes." Use meta tags correctly (meta tags are used in the "head" section of an html file).
* Avoid duplicate content -- more occurrences of your key words all over your site won't produce better result. Rather be clear, informative, unique, and useful.

==Use Meta tags==
Google recognises the following meta tags which will assist searching and indexing:
meta name="description" content="A description of the page"
meta name="robots" content="..., ..."
meta name="googlebot" content="..., ..."
meta name="verify-v1" content="..."
Further information on other meta tags recognised by Google, and how these tags can be used can be
found at http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=79812

==Responsive design==

==Accessibility==

==Use a robots file==
In order for Google and other search engines to know what's on your site, automated programs called "robots" are sent to index or "crawl" your website, adding information to their search engines' databases. You are able to create a file called '''robots.txt''' which will control which bots can crawl your site, and which parts they have access to. <br />
Learn more from
Google here: http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=40360

==Don't be sneaky==
While this might sound strange, presenting results which are intended to deceive (either search engines or users) are more likely to harm your search results than help them. Avoid using doorway pages (pages full of nothing but keywords), and don't use cloaking (delivering different results to users and search engines), hidden links or text, or deceptive redirects. Straight-forward DNS pointing, or 301-redirect (which requires hosting a small html file on the hosting server for the domain) are the best way to accomplish redirects. Imaginet offers both services for free.

==Don't be evil==
Google's old company slogan applies to web developers as well. Don't host malicious content, and don't link to sites know to spam users or to host malicious content.

==More resources==
[https://developers.google.com/search/docs Google Search Central]

=Telling search engines that you exist=
Now that your site has been designed, and you've prepared everything to be indexed, you'll need to inform search engines that your site is ready to be indexed.
<br />
<br />
You can submit your URL to Google's index at http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl
<br />
<br />
and to Yahoo! at http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/submit.
<br />
<br />
Should you want to submit your site to other search engines, the relevant links should be available on those pages.

=The next steps=
==Track your site's performance==
[[Viewing and interpreting your website hit stats|Activate detailed logging and track your hits]]

[https://search.google.com/search-console Google Search console]

[https://search.google.com/search-console/welcome Add your website to search console]. More info can be found [https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/34592 here].

[https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9128669?hl=en&ref_topic=9128571 Search console support].

==Sitemaps==
A Sitemap is a file based on a specific protocol, which basically lists all of the pages of your site. You can submit one to Google via your Webmaster Tools account. Sitemaps are useful if you have a large number of pages which are not being indexed by a search engine (due to incorrect linking, missing links, etc), or if you have a large number of pages which change regularly, or need to be indexed in a specific way. You can go about creating one in a number of ways. We will outline the two easiest options below: You can create a list of URLs in a basic text file. This type of Sitemap will inform search engines that unlinked pages exist. Simply create a list of URLs, each fully typed out, one URL per line. For example:
<br />
http://www.example.com/file1.html
http://www.example.com/file2.html
Do not exceed 50000 URLs, and don't include any other text at all. Save the file in UTF-8 encoded text, and name it "sitemap.txt". Upload this file to your host server, to the highest level directory to be crawled.
<br />
<br />
You can also create a sitemap using the Sitemap Protocol. Create an XML file with the following header:
<br />
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
<br />
You can now add URLs using the following format for each URL:
<url>
<loc>http://www.example.com/</loc>
<lastmod>2005-01-01</lastmod>
<changefreq>monthly</changefreq>
<priority>0.8</priority>
</url>
<br />
The loc tag specifies the URL, lastmod is the last modification date of that page, changefreq specifies how often the page changes, and priority is the relative importance of the page to the rest of your site. For example, your homepage might have a priority of 1.0 (most important) whereas a page of unimportant links would only have a value of 0.2 or so.
<br />
When you've added all the URLs, close the urlset tag, save the file as sitemap.xml, and upload and submit as for a txt Sitemap.

For more info and sitemap resources, see [https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/sitemaps/build-sitemap].

==Advertising==
The more you advertise and the easier it is for clients to find you, the higher your ranking will be on large search engines like Google. Remember that participating in lining schemes, and linking to malicious sites or "bad web neighbourhoods" will only serve to damage your results. Your advertising should be useful to the users of your site.

===Free classified adverts on the web===
* Gumtree – Johannesburg and Cape Town http://capetown.gumtree.co.za/
* Orange Pages www.orangepages.co.za
* Online Shopping http://www.onlineshopping.co.za/addasite.php

===Google AdWords===
Imaginet advertises with Google Adwords, as it's pay-per-click, it's a very effective way to make your
business known. Adwords will not increase your search rank, but you will be able to advertise in sidebars,
and ad blocks in certain sites. The service also allows for very precise budgeting, and campaign planning.
Further information on this service can be found at https://adwords.google.com
