Well If you read my article about installing Nginx+Mysql+PHP-FPM on debian or linux server you might interested in knowing how to setup wordpress on your newly installed lnmp serve. If you didnt read my article about how to install lnmp its here-http://www.ruchirablog.com/nginxmysqlphpfpm-auto-installer-centos-5-debian/
LNMP is really nice installer program I only discovered only 1 bug in it. Actually its not about security, LNMP asks your domain when installing so if you provide www.yourdomain.com for lnmp it will only setup your domain with www. So if some one access yourdomain.com ( Without www) it will not placed on the server and your web browser wont resolve that domain and sidplay Not Found error. So don’t worry now im going to write about solving this error and configuring nginx.conf correctly for complete install for wordpress. I have modified nginx.conf forWordPress Permalinks + WP Super Cache + Non WWW to WWW. , So to setup this I have included modified nginx.conf below
You need to open your nginx.conf to put this if this is a single domain lnmp server setup just login to ssh and your nginx.conf file is located in
- /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf
To edit in type ,
- nano /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf
It will open nginx.conf file in nano text editor like this-

If you dont know about how to install kloxo you may read this article first- http://www.ruchirablog.com/setup-vps-dedicated-server-kloxo-admin-panel/
Configuring DNS is nasty job if you are newbie for linux. Installing Nginx is more easy than configuring DNS and other type of records like MX records for mail and C name records.
If you are newbie best thing is to install a nice control panel to manage your websites. In kloxo its very easy to setup DNS but lot of readers asked me to write about configuring DNS in kloxo. So this is it.
If you use kloxo for the first time and trying to add a domain in the kloxo panel you will get a massage like that regarding to add a DNS template first.

Ok, This post is a part of my upcoming post about setting up DNS with kloxo. I know most of guys know about doing this but I thought I should write this for newbies. So lets begin,
If you host your website on shared host like dreamhost they will give you name servers like NS1.DREAMHOST.COM , NS2.DREAMHOST.COM , NS3.DREAMHOST.COM actually adding only 2 of those name servers are enough and those name servers doesn’t need to be in capital letter you can use what you prefer!
So this is not a post about how add name servers its about how to setup your own name servers for your VPS or dedicated Server. Like NS1.YOURDOMAIN.COM and NS2.YOURNAME.COM So you need to add host name (like adding name servers but need your ip address to setup) on godaddy.
If you browse godaddy control panel you will see a box to add host in the below of page-

Few years ago myspace was very popular and on the news papers all over the world. But now? Facebook leads the game and all the good and bad things happening on facebook. I can find many articles per week about facebook and facebook related things but guess what I never found a thing related to myspace in past months. Our dear Alexa shows how the trend is going for both sites and I thought I should publish some interesting facts that can be found on Alexa about Facebbok and Myspace.
Look at the graphs below. It shows how the traffic goes for both sites. Myspace graph is blue color and facebook is red!
And look at the 3 month traffic change for myspace
