How to setup an HTTP web server on a VPS running Debian

How to setup an HTTP web server on a VPS running Debian
How to setup Web server on VPS

Hi, this is my first tutorial on setting up a Web server on Debian. I think it will be useful for someone because  With 128MB RAM, I think it would be better if you install Nginx for webserver, PHP for generating dynamic page and MySQL for database management. I choose Nginx because it is lighter and have better performance than Apache.

This tutorial explains how to install and configure Nginx
1. Install Nginx
PHP Code:
sudo apt-get install nginx
sudo service nginx start  
Now if you point your browser to your IP address, it should confirm that nginx was successfully installed on your VPS.

2. Configure Nginx
With virtual host, you can host many site on 1 VPS. Here is how to configure it.
Open the default virtual host to edit. You can use many free tool to edit text in linux such as vi/vim/emacs... With the limited resource VPS, I recommend "nano".
PHP Code:
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/default  
In this configuration file, you can config many virtual hosts as you want. A correct configured virtual host look like this:
PHP Code:
    location / {
                
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html;
        }

        
error_page 404 /404.html;

        
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
        
location = /50x.html {
              
root /usr/share/nginx/www;
        }  
Now you can save and exit nano by press Ctr + X, it will ask you to save the edited file, save it.

Restart Nginx by:
PHP Code:
sudo service nginx restart  
and now you can browse to your web server using your domain name!

3, Install PHP
After installing Nginx as the post above, if you want to create dynamic web with VPS, here is the tutorial to help you install PHP.

Initial installation is simple with the apt-get command.

PHP Code:
sudo apt-get install php5-fpm  
And configure php to work with Nginx. Open
PHP Code:
sudo nano /etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/www.conf  
Find the line:
PHP Code:
Find the linelisten 127.0.0.1:9000  
change it to:
PHP Code:
listen = /var/run/php5-fpm.sock  
Save and Exit.
Change configuration of Nginx. Add these following lines to each virtual host
PHP Code:
# pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000
        
location ~ \.php$ {
                
try_files $uri =404;
                
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
                
fastcgi_index index.php;
                
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
                include 
fastcgi_params;
               
        }  
Restart php-fpm:
PHP Code:
sudo service php5-fpm restart  
You are done!. You can test your PHP by creating a simple file like this
PHP Code:
<?php
phpinfo
();?>
in
PHP Code:
/usr/share/nginx/www/info.php

Write High Converting Product Descriptions for Your eCommerce Store

        Write High Converting Product Descriptions for Your                                             eCommerce Store

Commece is growing at an exponential rate across the globe. In the US alone, eCommerce sales are expected to top $20 trillion by 2020. To benefit from this growth trend, you need to ensure that your eCommerce store is fully optimized to attract visitors and convert them into buyers.
Among several other things, a key factor that impacts your e-commerce sales is the quality of your product descriptions.
It does the job that a well-qualified salesperson would do in a physical retail outlet, and is often the difference between potential buyers bouncing back from your website, and casual visitors turning into buyers.
So, what exactly constitutes a high quality and conversion focused product description?
If you follow these steps, creating a seductive product description won’t be that hard.

Identify Your Ideal Buyer Persona

Before you even start describing your product, you need to clearly identify your ideal buyer persona.
A buyer persona is a sample profile of your ideal buyer. This is the person for whom your product is important, and who is willing to spend money on it.
You need to list down the key characteristics of your ideal buyer so that you can clearly identify and target him while writing your product description.
A typical buyer persona includes details like the gender of your buyer, income bracket, career level, interests, hobbies, likes and dislikes, their problems that your product solves and the phrases and words they use to describe their problems etc.
The more detailed your buyer persona, the better.
Keep this imaginary buyer in mind while writing your product description.
As you move forward, make more sales and learn more about your buyers, you can keep improving this buyer persona and make the necessary adjustments to your product descriptions.

Focus on the Benefits of Your Product and the Problems It Solves

Perhaps the most frequent mistake I see in product descriptions is the unnecessary focus on product features.
Features are important, no question about it. But you need to show your potential buyers a direct relationship between your product features and the solution to their problems.
In other words, focus on the benefits of your product instead of its features. Always state the benefits of your product before its features.
For example, instead of directly listing the technical details on the resolution, pixels and display quality of a smartphone, tell your buyers how your smartphone brand allows users to read messages without screen glare, under sunlight, saving them from eye strain and headache.
This is just one example.
When you start writing a product description, first list down all its features separately. Now translate each feature into a benefit.
You’ll be surprised how powerful and convincing your product descriptions can become with this simple change of mindset.

Use Benefit Driven Images of Your Product

A winning product description is incomplete without relevant and high quality product images. Images become even more important when you have specialized products and not just some decorative items like furniture and LCDs.
For example Nielson conducted a study in which they compared the behaviors of two different sets of buyers looking for bookshelves and LCD TVs.
They noted that on average users spent almost 82% of their time reading the text description of the product, while 18% of the time was spent examining product images. However, images for bookshelves were examined in much more detail as compared to generic items like LCD TVs.
So if you have a specialized product, images become much more important.
But for maximum impact, make sure you add multiple product images with your product description.
Add images that demonstrate different practical uses of your product. Also add a few close up images of the product that give a good look of your product to the buyer.

Cut Down on Meaningless Statements and Jargon

What exactly are you telling your prospective buyer when you say your product has excellent quality?
Is a seller supposed to say anything else?
These are obvious statements that buyers usually ignore because no one describes their product as poor quality.
You need to cut down on these obvious statements and instead focus on highlighting the key benefits of your product that reflect high quality.
For example, nowhere in this product description will you find claims about product quality. Yet, the overall product description gives you a strong impression of high quality.
good-example-ecommerce-product-description
Instead of stating the obvious by claiming high quality standards, try highlighting why your product is high quality. Focus on its unique selling points (USPs) and tell the buyer why you’re a better choice.

Create Content That Can Be Scanned Easily

Modern day internet users are short on time, and usually skim through content instead of reading each and every word.
Writing your product descriptions as one large block of text discourages your buyers from reading it completely.
Instead, intelligently highlight the key areas of your product descriptions and segment your content properly. Make it easy to scan for your readers and help them find what they’re looking for.
To achieve this, use short paragraphs (2-3 lines) in your product descriptions, highlight important features and benefits by making them bold or italic, use bullet points, headings and sub headings etc.
The objective here is to make it as convenient as possible for your buyers to identify the key benefits they’re getting from your product.
A properly formatted product description can prove to be the difference between an unconvinced prospect and a potentially long term customer.

Optimize Your Product Descriptions for Search Engines

No matter what products you sell and which region you target, if you have an e-commerce store, search engine traffic is crucial for your sales.
So naturally, optimizing your product descriptions for search engines, is important.
But most of your potential customers are unaware of your brand name. They also don’t know the branded names of your products.
All they know is that they have a problem, and they need a solution for it.
That is why it is absolutely critical that you optimize your product descriptions around the needs of your customers, not the brand name of your product.
Use selected keywords in your product descriptions that your client use to describe their need.
Think from your buyer’s perspective and write in their language.
But make sure you don’t overuse keywords because that can kill your voice in the product description and make it less persuasive.

Wrapping Up

A product description is your sales pitch to potential buyers. You need to make it as persuasive, understandable and engaging as possible. By applying the techniques I’ve discussed in this post, I am sure you can make your product descriptions much more effective in the long run.
What are some of the other ways you have seen brands and e-commerce stores make product descriptions more persuasive?
I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.

Samsung Galaxy S7 vs LG G5: Full Spec Comparison

      Samsung Galaxy S7 vs LG G5: Full Spec Comparison

At this year’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, both Samsung and LG officially unveiled their much awaited flagship smartphones for 2016 – Samsung Galaxy S7 and LG G5. They’re both powerful smartphones that are packed with impressive specification and features. So how do these two flagship smartphones stack up against each other? Here’s a spec by spec comparison of the two incredible handsets.

Samsung Galaxy S7 vs LG G5: Design

Like its predecessor, the Galaxy S7 comes with the same metal and glass design to the last year’s Galaxy S6, but with dual subtle curves on the back pane. The dual-curve back of the Galaxy S7 allows it to be more comfortable to hold than its predecessor, which is definitely a welcome change. Another thing that differentiates the old and new Galaxy model is that’s water and dust resistance. The Galaxy S7 has an IP68 rating, which means it will be more resistant than its predecessor.
Unlike Samsung Galaxy S7, LG G5 is a complete reinvention from the brand in terms of design and build quality. The new LG’s flagship phone uses a brand-new metal “unibody” design with a slide-out battery and ‘Modular Type’ design that allows user to attach various modules such as LG CAM Plus, LG Hi-Fi Plus with B&O PLAY, and more.
Samsung Galaxy S7 vs LG G5 Comparison

Samsung Galaxy S7 vs LG G5: Display

The S7 sports a 5.1-inch quad HD Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 pixels, while the G5 has a 5.3-inch Quad HD IPS display, also featuring a 2560 x 1440 pixels. This means that the LG G5 has larger display, but S7 has a sharper display with a few more pixels packed in per inch.

Samsung Galaxy S7 vs LG G5: Processor and RAM

Both the Galaxy S7 and the G5 offer significant improvement in processing power compared to the last year’s flagship smartphones.
The Samsung Galaxy S7 is powered by either an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 or the Exynos 8890 octa-core processor, depending on the region or carrier, and 4GB of RAM. Consumers in the United States will be getting the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820-powered variant, while most other markets will be getting the Exynos 8890-powered variant.
Both the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 as well as the Exynos 8890 offer comparable performance and are a pretty significant upgrade over last year’s flagship mobile SoCs.
The LG G5 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 chipset as well, making it a huge upgrade over the G4 in terms of performance. Both the devices are backed by 4GB of RAM.

Samsung Galaxy S7 vs LG G5: Camera

Both phones get significant camera upgrades from their predecessors. While Samsung has reduced the megapixel counts in its new Galaxy S7’s rear camera from 16MP in the Galaxy S6 to 12MP. However, the company has increased the pixel size, which lets in a lot more light. There is also a wide F/1.7 aperture lens which offers ability to capture high qualityimages in low light conditions.
The LG G5 has two camera on the back: a standard 16-megapixel shooter and an 8-megapixel camera with a palaceoftricks wide-angle 135-degree lens. The wider lens lets you capture more in the picture, which is pretty useful for big scenic images. It’s also added some new features to the camera such as Pop-out Picture, Film Effect and Auto Shot. But what is more interesting is the LG G5’s modular design, which lets users add a Cam Plus to the smartphone, and convert it into a digital camera. The LG Cam Plus has physical buttons for shutter, record, zoom, LED indicator and comfortable grip, along with intuitive auto-focus and exposure lock. It gives the G5 an additional battery capacity of 1,200mAh when attached.
Both devices can shoot 4K video and each has its own dual-tone LED flash. For selfies, the Galaxy S7 sports a 5MP front camera with the same f/1.7 aperture lens, and the G5 houses an 8MP front-facing camera.
Samsung Galaxy S7 vs LG G5 Comparison

Samsung Galaxy S7 vs LG G5: Battery

The Galaxy S7 includes a 3,000mAh battery while the G5 has a 2,800mAh battery. The S7 wins when it comes to size by 7 percent, which might not seem like much. Moreover, Samsung has developed a special liquid cooling system to help keep systems cool, which could positively impact overall battery life,
LG G5, however, palaceoftricks has the advantage of featuring a removable battery. This means that you can carry extra batteries and never have to worry about running out of juice.
Both phones offer fast charging thanks to Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 3.0, but Samsung also offers fast wireless charging, which is 50% faster than normal wireless charging.

Samsung Galaxy S7 vs LG G5: Operating System

Both Samsung Galaxy S7 and LG G5 come with Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS, but each has its own custom UI on top. Galaxy S7 runs the company’s TouchWiz UI. That said, Samsung has made some minor changes with Android 6.0 Marshmallow on the Galaxy S7, such as redesigned app icons and a slightly different color scheme in some apps.
The LG G5 on the other hand is running the LG UX 5.0. The latest iteration of LG’s custom Android skin has is leaner than ever before, with minimal additions. Aside from tweaks such as custom home screen animations and the lack of an app drawer, it is pretty close to stock Android.
Samsung Galaxy S7 vs LG G5 Comparison

Samsung Galaxy S7 vs LG G5: Storage

Addressing a major complaint that most Galaxy S6 owners had against Samsung, the company has decided to re-introduce memory expansion on the Galaxy S7, which can be further expanded by up to 200GB. The smartphone is available in 32GB and 64GB internal storage capacity.
Similar to the G4, the G5 comes with just 32GB of internal storage. It’s also expandable via a built-in microSD card slot. But while Samsung’s maxes out at 200GB, the G5 can add up to a whopping 2TB.
