You Can Set Up Help Center Live by Hand

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

A lot of us who set up our own websites have big dreams and big aspirations. We want to be able to create the kind of site that visitors will flock to and give the same level of service that a large company seems to provide so easily. For many of us, that is not a reality due to budget constraints and that’s why it is a great thing that HelpCenter Live is available. This is an open source solution, meaning it is totally free to use, that is going to set you up with the ability to give live help to your visitors right on your site without having to spend a fortune to make that happen. A live help center is now standard operating procedure for the big dogs in the ecommerce world and with HelpCenterLive available to you for free, there’s no reason your web shop or other website shouldn’t be able to have the best right on board.

When you run your own site, you often have to do a lot of things yourself in order to cut costs and stay competitive, especially in the big markets where your site is judged based on the quality of service it can provide. Those who are worried about setting up their own software do not have to worry when it comes to getting Help Center Live because it really is a breeze, provided you have a little bit of experience under your belt when it comes to installing things on your web host account. If you don’t know what CHMOD means or how to use it, then you may want to opt for an easier alternative or seek out some guidance before you get started with this particular script. As valuable as it can be, you do need a little bit of experience so it is important to realize that up front.

First off, here is a list of things you want to make sure that your webhost has installed for your account’s use as you will need them to make Help Center Live work properly:

MySQL 1.3 or newer must be installed on your web host
PHP 4.3.2 or newer must also be installed for this script to work

You will need to create a MySQL database for this script to work, but when you do that be absolutely certain that you record the user name, database name and password for later in the installation process.

Now you need to download to Help Center Live Core files and unzip them onto your computer.

Next, make sure that if your account is set with safe_mode on, you have gone into config.php in the Help Center Live Core package and edited this line of code:

$conf['safe_mode']

Set it to ‘true’ and you shouldn’t have any issues. Then save config.php and upload the whole Core package into a directory for Help Center Live. Now comes the CHMOD part.

CHMOD each of the following files and directories to 777:

/icons/
/compile/
/cache/
/config.php

Finally, all you need to do is navigate to http://www.YourDomainName.com/hcl/setup

In this case, YourDomainName.com is your own domain name where Help Center Live will be installed and the /hcl/ directory will be replaced by whatever you named the directory where you uploaded the Core package earlier.

All you have to do is follow the instructions on your screen and you’ll be guided through the entire installation process!

Tag: Not a Game to Play with Technical Support

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

When you were a kid, chances are good you loved a great game of tag, just like everyone else your age. When you got older, chances are good that played a different form of this game that’s considered to be one of the earliest stages of courtship. When you’re running a business and relying on a company to provide you with incredibly valuable services such as web hosting, tag becomes a game you loathe. The online world is evolving at a rapid pace and that means when your website is down you need help right away. You shouldn’t have to fire off emails back and forth to customer support getting only partial solutions to your problems when you are in a bad situation. You also shouldn’t be forced to leave voicemails or wait through endless hold sessions simply to have your problem solved.

The best companies today, both online and offline, have come to terms with the fact that technical support of the highest quality is paramount to their success. They know that you have to be able to rely on your tech support team to handle customers to the best of their abilities, but if you wind up having to cull through employees to make that team happen then so be it. It is better to pay for the best than settle for a sloppy team, right? Well, in reality not all companies really care to strive for the position as best web host in the industry. That’s why you’ll notice that whenever you are investigating web hosts you find a lot of people online screaming their digital hearts out over tech support that has been so lazy it’s helped them miss major opportunities.

Entrepreneurs move at the speed of inspiration. This means that when they see an opportunity, they need the tools to be able to take advantage of it right away. When a major event takes place in the world today you will often see websites springing up left and right to fill in any gaps in the information available online about that event. Take the death of pop music legend Michael Jackson, for example. Within hours of his passing, thousands upon thousands of websites sprang up literally overnight to honor the performer, share information they had gathered from all over the web or offer interactive tributes. Traffic skyrocketed off the charts, nearly bringing Google itself to its knees. Can you imagine the level of frustration that site owners with websites downed during this traffic boom must have felt? Can you imagine how utterly incensed they must have been at having to spend hours or even days hoping tech support might one day help them solve a simple problem so they could get their site back up and catch some exposure?

Leave tag on the playground and find a web host with tech support that is going to be responsive, friendly and informed. It’s the only way to do business online if you are serious about making your site a true success.
