Understanding what someone in the industry is saying to you will make your life a LOT easier.  \nACCESSIBILITY Relates to web design/coding standards and refers to how easy it is for everyone to use your website, including people who are visually impaired or in any way physically handicapped, or limited by older or less common computers and software.  \nADDRESS BAR The white bar towards the top of your computer screen. It will normally have something typed in it that starts with \"[http://](http://)\" This is where you type in the address of a website that you want to visit.  \nASCII American Standard Code for Information Interchange. A code that represents English characters as numbers, ranging from 0 to 127. Commonly used by computers and browsers, ASCII codes make it possible to transfer data from one computer to another computer (like a server) . In terms of transferring data from a computer to a server (called \"uploading\"), you would need to use either ASCII or Binary, depending on the type of file being transferred.  \nASP A coding language that is compatible with Windows servers. Normally used for increased functionality on a website or to work with a database. It works in conjunction with html and html variants.  \nBACKLINKS Links from other websites to yours. Used to increase a site's popularity with search engines and to get more people to visit your site.  \nBANDWIDTH It may help if you read \"traffic\" first, but very simply, bandwidth relates to how much aresource is used. An analogy would be a freeway. The wider the freeway, the more traffic (users) it can handle. The narrower it is, the less people can use it at once (without problems) . When a website gets a lot of visitors, it will use a lot of bandwidth.  \nBCC Means \"Blind Carbon Copy\" . An email feature. If you send someone a BCC email, their email address will not show in the \"to\" field.  \nBETA A term used for software that is in a \"live\" testing phase. People can use it but can expect some hiccups.  \nBINARY A numbering system that consists of only two numbers, 0 and 1. Everything that you type or input into a computer is converted into binary-a unique combination of the zeros and ones. Screensand printers then convert this binary code back into what you inputted. When uploading (transferring) information (files) from a computer to a server, certain files need to be transferred as binary in order to be correctly interpreted and rendered. The alternative to binary for uploading is ASCII.  \nBLOG An online journal or diary and a very popular current method of sharing your thoughts with the world. It is also very popular as a marketing tool.  \n1 of 9  \nBOUNCE When you send an email to someone and it comes straight back to you with an error message, it is said to have bounced. It's like the internet version of \"return to sender\" except it is a computer or piece of software automatically sending it back to you, not a person. Emails can bounce for many reasons. The most common are: you made a spelling or typing error in the address, making the address invalid; the person you are sending to no longer has that email address; the person you are sending to has let their mailbox become too full to accept new emails; a piece of software on the receiving end thinks that your email is spam or that it includes a virus and sends it back to you.  \nBROADBAND Relates to a type of internet connection. When someone says they have a broadband connection it means they are connecting using a service that provides greater speed. ADSL is one example of a broadband connection. It also often means greater reliability because you will not experience as many timeouts and also because more people can use a broadband connection at the same time without it causing \"traffic congestion\" (which slows everything up-just as it does when you are drivin","cbCailsgrkYta9tM","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailsgrkYta9tM","pdf",165558,"English","# Internet Terminology\n## Key Definitions\n## Email, Browsers, and Connections","[{\"question\":\"What does “Accessibility” mean in web terms?\",\"answer\":\"It refers to web design/coding standards focused on how easy it is for everyone to use a website, including people with visual impairments or physical limitations.\"},{\"question\":\"How do ASCII and Binary differ for data transfer?\",\"answer\":\"ASCII represents English characters as numbers from 0 to 127, while Binary uses only 0 and 1.
