    Introduction

    relationship www.bisnis-jasa-web.cc.cc with business, and web services;

    The following is the understanding what it means business, web-services:

    1.Business

    A business (also called a company, enterprise or firm) is a legally recognized organization designed toprovide goods and/or services to consumers.[1] Businesses are predominant in capitalist economies,

    most being privately owned and formed to earn profit that will increase the wealth of its owners and

    grow the business itself. The owners and operators of a business have as one of their main objectivesthe receipt or generation of a financial return in exchange for work and acceptance of risk. Notable

    exceptions include cooperative enterprises and state-owned enterprises. Businesses can also be formed

    not-for-profit or be state-owned.

    The etymology of "business" relates to the state of being busy either as an individual or society as a

    whole, doing commercially viable and profitable work. The term "business" has at least three usages,

    depending on the scope the singular usage (above) to mean a particular company or corporation, thegeneralized usage to refer to a particular market sector, such as "the music business" and compound

    forms such as agribusiness, or the broadest meaning to include all activity by the community of

    suppliers of goods and services. However, the exact definition of business, like much else in thephilosophy of business, is a matter of debate and complexity of meanings

    Basic forms of ownership

    Although forms of business ownership vary by jurisdiction, there are several common forms:

    Sole proprietorship: A sole proprietorship is a business owned by one person. The owner may operateon his or her own or may employ others. The owner of the business has personal liability of the debts

    incurred by the business.

    Partnership: A partnership is a form of business in which two or more people operate for the commongoal which is often making profit. In most forms of partnerships, each partner has personal liability of

    the debts incurred by the business. There are three typical classifications of partnerships: general

    partnerships, limited partnerships, and limited liability partnerships.Corporation: A corporation is either a limited or unlimited liability entity that has a separate legal

    personality from its members. A corporation can be organized for-profit or not-for-profit. A

    corporation is owned by multiple shareholders and is overseen by a board of directors, which hires the

    businesss managerial staff. In addition to privately-owned corporate models, there are state-ownedcorporate models.

    Cooperative: Often referred to as a "co-op", a cooperative is a limited liability entity that can organize

    for-profit or not-for-profit. A cooperative differs from a corporation in that it has members, as opposedto shareholders, who share decision-making authority. Cooperatives are typically classified as either

    consumer cooperatives or worker cooperatives. Cooperatives are fundamental to the ideology of

    economic democracy.

    For a country-by-country listing of legally recognized business forms, see Types of business entity.

    Classifications

    There are many types of businesses, and because of this, businesses are classified in many ways. Oneof the most common focuses on the primary profit-generating activities of a business:

    Agriculture and mining businesses are concerned with the production of raw material, such as plants or

    minerals.Financial businesses include banks and other companies that generate profit through investment and

    management of capital.

    Information businesses generate profits primarily from the resale of intellectual property and includemovie studios, publishers and packaged software companies.

    Manufacturers produce products, from raw materials or component parts, which they then sell at a

    profit. Companies that make physical goods, such as cars or pipes, are considered manufacturers.

    Real estate businesses generate profit from the selling, renting, and development of properties, homes,and buildings.

    Retailers and Distributors act as middle-men in getting goods produced by manufacturers to the

    intended consumer, generating a profit as a result of providing sales or distribution services. Mostconsumer-oriented stores and catalogue companies are distributors or retailers. See also: Franchising

    Service businesses offer intangible goods or services and typically generate a profit by charging for

    labor or other services provided to government, other businesses or consumers. Organizations rangingfrom house decorators to consulting firms to restaurants and even to entertainers are types of service

    businesses.

    Transportation businesses deliver goods and individuals from location to location, generating a profit

    on the transportation costs

    Utilities produce public services, such as heat, electricity, or sewage treatment, and are usually

    government chartered.

    There are many other divisions and subdivisions of businesses. The authoritative list of business types

    for North America is generally considered to be the North American Industry Classification System, orNAICS. The equivalent European Union list is the NACE.

    Management

    The efficient and effective operation of a business, and study of this subject, is called management. The

    main branches of management are financial management, marketing management, human resourcemanagement, strategic management, production management, service management, information

    technology management, and business intelligence.

    Reforming State Enterprises

    In recent decades, assets and enterprises that were run by various states have been modeled after

    business enterprises. In 2003, the Peoples Republic of China reformed 80% of its state-owned

    enterprises and modeled them on a company-type management system.[2] Many state institutions andenterprises in China and Russia have been transformed into joint-stock companies, with part of their

    shares being listed on public stock markets.

    Government regulation

    Most legal jurisdictions specify the forms of ownership that a business can take, creating a body ofcommercial law for each type.

    Organizing

    The major factors affecting how a business is organized are usually:

    The size and scope of the business, and its anticipated management and ownership. Generally a smallerbusiness is more flexible, while larger businesses, or those with wider ownership or more formal

    structures, will usually tend to be organized as partnerships or (more commonly) corporations. In

    addition a business that wishes to raise money on a stock market or to be owned by a wide range ofpeople will often be required to adopt a specific legal form to do so.

    The sector and country. Private profit making businesses are different from government owned bodies.

    In some countries, certain businesses are legally obliged to be organized in certain ways.Limited liability. Corporations, limited liability partnerships, and other specific types of business

    organizations protect their owners or shareholders from business failure by doing business under a

    separate legal entity with certain legal protections. In contrast, unincorporated businesses or personsworking on their own are usually not so protected.

    4/13

    Tax advantages. Different structures are treated differently in tax law, and may have advantages for this

    reason.

    Disclosure and compliance requirements. Different business structures may be required to make more

    or less information public (or reported to relevant authorities), and may be bound to comply withdifferent rules and regulations.

    Many businesses are operated through a separate entity such as a corporation or a partnership (eitherformed with or without limited liability). Most legal jurisdictions allow people to organize such an

    entity by filing certain charter documents with the relevant Secretary of State or equivalent and

    complying with certain other ongoing obligations. The relationships and legal rights of shareholders,limited partners, or members are governed partly by the charter documents and partly by the law of the

    jurisdiction where the entity is organized. Generally speaking, shareholders in a corporation, limited

    partners in a limited partnership, and members in a limited liability company are shielded from

    personal liability for the debts and obligations of the entity, which is legally treated as a separate"person." This means that unless there is misconduct, the owners own possessions are strongly

    protected in law, if the business does not succeed.

    Where two or more individuals own a business together but have failed to organize a more specialized

    form of vehicle, they will be treated as a general partnership. The terms of a partnership are partly

    governed by a partnership agreement if one is created, and partly by the law of the jurisdiction wherethe partnership is located. No paperwork or filing is necessary to create a partnership, and without an

    agreement, the relationships and legal rights of the partners will be entirely governed by the law of the

    jurisdiction where the partnership is located.

    A single person who owns and runs a business is commonly known as a sole proprietor, whether he or

    she owns it directly or through a formally organized entity.

    A few relevant factors to consider in deciding how to operate a business include:

    General partners in a partnership (other than a limited liability partnership), plus anyone who

    personally owns and operates a business without creating a separate legal entity, are personally liablefor the debts and obligations of the business.

    Generally, corporations are required to pay tax just like "real" people. In some tax systems, this can

    give rise to so-called double taxation, because first the corporation pays tax on the profit, and thenwhen the corporation distributes its profits to its owners, individuals have to include dividends in their

    income when they complete their personal tax returns, at which point a second layer of income tax is

    imposed.

    In most countries, there are laws which treat small corporations differently than large ones. They maybe exempt from certain legal filing requirements or labor laws, have simplified procedures in

    specialized areas, and have simplified, advantageous, or slightly different tax treatment.

    To "go public" (sometimes called IPO) -- which basically means to allow a part of the business to beowned by a wider range of investors or the public in generalyou must organize a separate entity,

    which is usually required to comply with a tighter set of laws and procedures. Most public entities are

    corporations that have sold shares, but increasingly there are also public LLCs that sell units(sometimes also called shares), and other more exotic entities as well (for example, REITs in the USA,

    Unit Trusts in the UK). However, you cannot take a general partnership "public."

    Commercial law

    Most commercial transactions are governed by a very detailed and well-established body of rules that

    have evolved over a very long period of time, it being the case that governing trade and commerce wasa strong driving force in the creation of law and courts in Western civilization.

    As for other laws that regulate or impact businesses, in many countries it is all but impossible tochronicle them all in a single reference source. There are laws governing treatment of labor and

    generally relations with employees, safety and protection issues (Health and Safety), anti-

    discrimination laws (age, gender, disabilities, race, and in some jurisdictions, sexual orientation),minimum wage laws, union laws, workers compensation laws, and annual vacation or working hours

    time.

    In some specialized businesses, there may also be licenses required, either due to special laws thatgovern entry into certain trades, occupations or professions, which may require special education, or by

    local governments. Professions that require special licenses range from law and medicine to flying

    airplanes to selling liquor to radio broadcasting to selling investment securities to selling used cars toroofing. Local jurisdictions may also require special licenses and taxes just to operate a business

    without regard to the type of business involved.

    Some businesses are subject to ongoing special regulation. These industries include, for example,

    public utilities, investment securities, banking, insurance, broadcasting, aviation, and health care

    providers. Environmental regulations are also very complex and can impact many kinds of businessesin unexpected ways.

    Capital

    When businesses need to raise money (called capital), more laws come into play. A highly complex set

    of laws and regulations govern the offer and sale of investment securities (the means of raising money)

    in most Western countries. These regulations can require disclosure of a lot of specific financial andother information about the business and give buyers certain remedies. Because "securities" is a very

    broad term, most investment transactions will be potentially subject to these laws, unless a special

    exemption is available.

    Capital may be raised through private means, by public offer (IPO) on a stock exchange, or in many

    other ways. Major stock exchanges include the Shanghai Stock Exchange, Singapore Exchange, Hong

    Kong Stock Exchange, New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq (USA), the London Stock Exchange(UK), the Tokyo Stock Exchange (Japan), and so on. Most countries with capital markets have at least

    one.

    Business that have gone "public" are subject to extremely detailed and complicated regulation about

    their internal governance (such as how executive officers compensation is determined) and when and

    how information is disclosed to the public and their shareholders. In the United States, theseregulations are primarily implemented and enforced by the United States Securities and Exchange

    Commission (SEC). Other Western nations have comparable regulatory bodies. The regulations are

    implemented and enforced by the China Securities Regulation Commission (CSRC), in China.

    6/13

    In Singapore, the regulation authority is Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), and in Hong Kong,

    it is Securities and Futures Commission (SFC).

    As noted at the beginning, it is impossible to enumerate all of the types of laws and regulations thatimpact on business today. In fact, these laws have become so numerous and complex, that no business

    lawyer can learn them all, forcing increasing specialization among corporate attorneys. It is not unheard

    of for teams of 5 to 10 attorneys to be required to handle certain kinds of corporate transactions, due tothe sprawling nature of modern regulation. Commercial law spans general corporate law, employment

    and labor law, healthcare law, securities law, M&A law (who specialize in acquisitions), tax law,

    ERISA law (ERISA in the United States governs employee benefit plans), food and drug regulatorylaw, intellectual property law (specializing in copyrights, patents, trademarks and such),

    telecommunications law, and more.

    In Thailand, for example, it is necessary to register a particular amount of capital for each employee,and pay a fee to the government for the amount of capital registered. There is no legal requirement to

    prove that this capital actually exists, the only requirement is to pay the fee. Overall, processes like this

    are detrimental to the development and GDP of a country, but often exist in "feudal" developingcountries.

    Intellectual property

    Businesses often have important "intellectual property" that needs protection from competitors for thecompany to stay profitable. This could require patents or copyrights or preservation of trade secrets.

    Most businesses have names, logos and similar branding techniques that could benefit from

    trademarking. Patents and copyrights in the United States are largely governed by federal law, while

    trade secrets and trademarking are mostly a matter of state law. Because of the nature of intellectualproperty, a business needs protection in every jurisdiction in which they are concerned about

    competitors. Many countries are signatories to international treaties concerning intellectual property,

    and thus companies registered in these countries are subject to national laws bound by these treaties.

    Exit plans

    Businesses can be bought and sold. Business owners often refer to their plan of disposing of the

    business as an "exit plan." Common exit plans include IPOs, MBOs and mergers with other businesses.

    Businesses are rarely liquidated, as it is often very unprofitable to do so.

    3.Website

    A website (also spelled Web site[1]) is a collection of related web pages, images, videos or other digital

    assets that are addressed relative to a common Uniform Resource Locator (URL), often consisting ofonly the domain name, or the IP address, and the root path (/) in an Internet Protocol-based network. A

    web site is hosted on at least one web server, accessible via a network such as the Internet or a private

    local area network.

    A web page is a document, typically written in plain text interspersed with formatting instructions of

    Hypertext Markup Language (HTML, XHTML). A web page may incorporate elements from otherwebsites with suitable markup anchors.

    Web pages are accessed and transported with the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), which may

    optionally employ encryption (HTTP Secure, HTTPS) to provide security and privacy for the user ofthe web page content. The users application, often a web browser, renders the page content according

    to its HTML markup instructions onto a display terminal.

    All publicly accessible websites collectively constitute the World Wide Web.

    The pages of a website can usually be accessed from a simple Uniform Resource Locator called thehomepage. The URLs of the pages organize them into a hierarchy, although hyperlinking between them

    conveys the readers perceived site structure and guides the readers navigation of the site.

    7

    8/13

    Some websites require a subscription to access some or all of their content. Examples of subscription

    sites include many business sites, parts of many news sites, academic journal sites, gaming sites,

    message boards, web-based e-mail, services, social networking websites, and sites providing real-timestock market data.

    History

    The World Wide Web (WWW) was created in 1989 by CERN physicist Tim Berners-Lee.[2] On 30April 1993, CERN announced that the World Wide Web would be free to use for anyone.[3]

    Before the introduction of HTML and HTTP, other protocols such as file transfer protocol and the

    gopher protocol were used to retrieve individual files from a server. These protocols offer a simpledirectory structure which the user navigates and chooses files to download. Documents were most often

    presented as plain text files without formatting or were encoded in word processor formats.

    Overview

    Organized by function, a website may be

    a personal website

    a commercial websitea government website

    a non-profit organization website

    It could be the work of an individual, a business or other organization, and is typically dedicated tosome particular topic or purpose. Any website can contain a hyperlink to any other website, so the

    distinction between individual sites, as perceived by the user, may sometimes be blurred.

    Websites are written in, or dynamically converted to, HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) and are

    accessed using a software interface classified as a user agent. Web pages can be viewed or otherwise

    accessed from a range of computer-based and Internet-enabled devices of various sizes, includingdesktop computers, laptops, PDAs and cell phones.

    A website is hosted on a computer system known as a web server, also called an HTTP server, and

    these terms can also refer to the software that runs on these systems and that retrieves and delivers theweb pages in response to requests from the website users. Apache is the most commonly used web

    server software (according to Netcraft statistics) and Microsofts Internet Information Server (IIS) is

    also commonly used.

    Static websiteMain article: static web page

    A static website is one that has web pages stored on the server in the format that is sent to a client webbrowser. It is primarily coded in Hypertext Markup Language (HTML).

    8

  • 8/14/2019 Www.bisnis Jasa Web.cc.Cc

    9/13

    Simple forms or marketing examples of websites, such as classic website, a five-page website or a

    brochure website are often static websites, because they present pre-defined, static information to the

    user. This may include information about a company and its products and services via text, photos,animations, audio/video and interactive menus and navigation.

    This type of website usually displays the same information to all visitors. Similar to handing out aprinted brochure to customers or clients, a static website will generally provide consistent, standard

    information for an extended period of time. Although the website owner may make updates

    periodically, it is a manual process to edit the text, photos and other content and may require basicwebsite design skills and software.

    In summary, visitors are not able to control what information they receive via a static website, and must

    instead settle for whatever content the website owner has decided to offer at that time.

    They are edited using four broad categories of software:

    Text editors, such as Notepad or TextEdit, where content and HTML markup are manipulated directlywithin the editor program

    WYSIWYG offline editors, such as Microsoft FrontPage and Adobe Dreamweaver (previously

    Macromedia Dreamweaver), with which the site is edited using a GUI interface and the final HTMLmarkup is generated automatically by the editor software

    WYSIWYG online editors which create media rich online presentation like web pages, widgets, intro,

    blogs, and other documents.Template-based editors, such as Rapidweaver and iWeb, which allow users to quickly create and

    upload web pages to a web server without detailed HTML knowledge, as they pick a suitable template

    from a palette and add pictures and text to it in a desktop publishing fashion without direct

    manipulation of HTML code.

    Dynamic website

    A dynamic website is one that changes or customizes itself frequently and automatically, based on

    certain criteria.

    Dynamic websites can have two types of dynamic activity: Code and Content. Dynamic code is

    invisible or behind the scenes and dynamic content is visible or fully displayed.

    Dynamic code

    The first type is a web page with dynamic code. The code is constructed dynamically on the fly using

    active programming language instead of plain, static HTML.

    9

  • 8/14/2019 Www.bisnis Jasa Web.cc.Cc

    10/13

    A website with dynamic code refers to its construction or how it is built, and more specifically refers to

    the code used to create a single web page.A dynamic web page is generated on the fly by piecing

    together certain blocks of code, procedures or routines. A dynamically-generated web page would call

    various bits of information from a database and put them together in a pre-defined format to present thereader with a coherent page. It interacts with users in a variety of ways including by reading cookies

    recognizing users previous history, session variables, server side variables etc., or by using direct

    interaction (form elements, mouseovers, etc.). A site can display the current state of a dialogue betweenusers, monitor a changing situation, or provide information in some way personalized to the

    requirements of the individual user.

    Dynamic content

    The second type is a website with dynamic content displayed in plain view. Variable content isdisplayed dynamically on the fly based on certain criteria, usually by retrieving content stored in a

    database.

    A website with dynamic content refers to how its messages, text, images and other information are

    displayed on the web page, and more specifically how its content changes at any given moment. The

    web page content varies based on certain criteria, either pre-defined rules or variable user input. Forexample, a website with a database of news articles can use a pre-defined rule which tells it to display

    all news articles for todays date. This type of dynamic website will automatically show the most

    current news articles on any given date. Another example of dynamic content is when a retail websitewith a database of media products allows a user to input a search request for the keyword Beatles. In

    response, the content of the web page will spontaneously change the way it looked before, and will

    then display a list of Beatles products like CDs, DVDs and books.

    Purpose of dynamic websites

    The main purpose of a dynamic website is automation. A dynamic website can operate more

    effectively, be built more efficiently and is easier to maintain, update and expand. It is much simpler to

    build a template and a database than to build hundreds or thousands of individual, static HTML webpages.

    Software systems

    There is a wide range of software systems, such as Java Server Pages (JSP), the PHP and Perl

    programming languages, Active Server Pages (ASP), YUMA and ColdFusion (CFML) that areavailable to generate dynamic web systems and dynamic sites. Sites may also include content that is

    retrieved from one or more databases or by using XML-based technologies such as RSS.

    Static content may also be dynamically generated either periodically, or if certain conditions for

    regeneration occur (cached) in order to avoid the performance loss of initiating the dynamic engine on

    a per-user or per-connection basis.

    10

    11/13

    Plug ins are available to expand the features and abilities of web browsers, which use them to show

    active content, such as Microsoft Silverlight, Adobe Flash, Adobe Shockwave or applets written in

    Java. Dynamic HTML also provides for user interactivity and realtime element updating within webpages (i.e., pages don have to be loaded or reloaded to effect any changes), mainly using the Document

    Object Model (DOM) and JavaScript, support which is built-in to most modern web browsers.

    Turning a website into an income source is a common practice for web developers and website owners.

    There are several methods for creating a website business which fall into two broad categories, as

    defined below.

    Content-based sites

    Some websites derive revenue by selling advertising space on the site (see Contextual advertising).

    Product- or service-based sites

    Some websites derive revenue by offering products or services for sale. In the case of e-commercewebsites, the products or services may be purchased at the website itself, by entering credit card or

    other payment information into a payment form on the site. While most business websites serve as a

    shop window for existing brick and mortar businesses, it is increasingly the case that some websites arebusinesses in their own right; that is, the products they offer are only available for purchase on the web.

    Websites occasionally derive income from a combination of these two practices. For example, a

    website such as an online auctions website may charge the users of its auction service to list an auction,but also display third-party advertisements on the site, from which it derives further income.

    Spelling

    The forms website and web site are the most commonly used forms, the former especially in BritishEnglish. The Associated Press Style book, Reuters, Microsoft, academia, book publishing, The Chicago

    Manual of Style, and dictionaries such as Merriam-Webster use the two-word, initially capitalized

    spelling Web site. This is because "Web" is not a general term but a short form of World Wide Web.

    As with many newly created terms,[which?] it may take some time before a common spelling isfinalized.[original research?] This controversy also applies to derivative terms such as web page, web

    master, and web cam.

    The Canadian Oxford Dictionary and the Canadian Press Style book list "website" and "web page" as

    the preferred spellings. The Oxford English Dictionary began using "website" as its standardized form

    in 2004.[4]

    Bill Walsh, the copy chief of The Washington Posts national desk, and one of American Englishs

    foremost grammarians, argues for the two-word spelling with capital W in his books Lapsing into aComma and The Elephants of Style, and on his site, the Slot.[5]

    11

  • 8/14/2019 Www.bisnis Jasa Web.cc.Cc

    12/13

    According to the AP Stylebook from the Associated Press, which clarifies the news organizations rules

    on grammar, spelling, punctuation and usage, the proper spelling is Web site.[6]

    Types of websites

    There are many varieties of websites, each specializing in a particular type of content or use, and they

    may be arbitrarily classified in any number of ways. A few such classifications might include:[original

    research?]Affiliate: enabled portal that renders not only its custom CMS but also syndicated content from other

    content providers for an agreed fee. There are usually three relationship tiers. Affiliate Agencies (e.g.,

    Commission Junction), Advertisers (e.g., eBay) and consumer (e.g., Yahoo!).

    Archive site: used to preserve valuable electronic content threatened with extinction. Two examplesare: Internet Archive, which since 1996 has preserved billions of old (and new) web pages; and Google

    Groups, which in early 2005 was archiving over 845,000,000 messages posted to Usenet

    news/discussion groups.Blog (web log): sites generally used to post online diaries which may include discussion forums (e.g.,

    blogger, Xanga).

    Brand building site: a site with the purpose of creating an experience of a brand online. These sitesusually do not sell anything, but focus on building the brand. Brand building sites are most common for

    low-value, high-volume fast moving consumer goods (FMCG).

    City Site: A site that shows information about a certain city or town and events that takes place in thattown. Usually created by the city council or other "movers and shakers".

    the same as those of geographic entities, such as cities and countries. For example, Richmond.com is

    the geodomain for Richmond, Virginia.

    Community site: a site where persons with similar interests communicate with each other, usually bychat or message boards, such as MySpace or Facebook.

    Content site: sites whose business is the creation and distribution of original content (e.g., Slate,

    About.com).Corporate website: used to provide background information about a business, organization, or service.

    Electronic commerce (e-commerce) site: a site offering goods and services for online sale and enabling

    online transactions for such sales.Forum: a site where people discuss various topics.

    Gripe site: a site devoted to the critique of a person, place, corporation, government, or institution.

    Humor site: satirizes, parodies or otherwise exists solely to amuse.

    Information site: contains content that is intended to inform visitors, but not necessarily for commercialpurposes, such as: RateMyProfessors.com, Free Internet Lexicon and Encyclopedia. Most government,

    educational and non-profit institutions have an informational site.

    Java applet site: contains software to run over the Web as a Web application.Mirror site: A complete reproduction of a website.

    Microblog : a short and simple form of blogging.

    News site: similar to an information site, but dedicated to dispensing news and commentary.Personal homepage: run by an individual or a small group (such as a family) that contains information

    or any content that the individual wishes to include. These are usually uploaded using a web hosting

    service such as Geocities.
