Thats more or less it.

Once you have your domain name.
when you register with the hosting company they will ask for the website name then tell you to point the name at there server.
They will give you two DNS address's.
You then go back to the people you bought the website name from and log in.
There will be a part in there for DNS just click that put the two address's in the hosting company gave you and click ok.

It will take anything from 1 hour upto 24 hours for you site to first show.

but you can still build your site and upload it whilst you waiting.
You can get a free website template and edit that in an editor there's plenty of free one's about or use the hosting companies website builder.

Hi Paul,

i have registered with the two that you recommended... but the hosting company have taken my payment... and i can access my website space.... and its live... but they have not asked me to direct my domain name to them or anything.

cheers.

now i have my host email..... its sayin...


Alternatively your domain name must point at the following nameservers to work on this hosting account:

ns1.enixns.com (.................)

and there are 4 of them... but not links i can click on....

how do i point my domain name to a host please.

Hi Matt

Its a holding page... but i have a contact site for the the domain area too ..

i just wondered if the nameservers are pointing to the right place

[geefree]

or will they find it with my window cleaning content on the website,

does anyone know.
