Domain
Questions
1)
How do I get all of my domains working with FORYOU?
Quite
simple. If you can pull up your Activation Email, you'll notice
DNS entries to plug in to your registrar. You will need to go to
the provider whom you registered your domain name from (ex:
networksolutions.com), login to your master domain panel and
update your domains 'NAME SERVERS.'
You
will then point your domain to the domain Name Server of your
choice.
Of
course, if you need assistance with this (as we have helped out
in the past with others) please don't hesitate to contact us contact
us.

How do I register my www.____.com/net/org... domain name?

3)
Why doesn't my web site work yet?
Upon
activation, it will take your site 24-72 hours to update DNS
entries AROUND the globe. In english, every DNS "phone
book" (so to speak) will be updated within a MAXIMUM of 72
hours and at that time, anyone in the world can access your site.
YOU may be able to access your site within 24 hours, but people
4 blocks from you, may not be able to access your site until 24
hours from now (it's really work how the system works). :-/
This
is true with ANY web host. SO, if you would like, you may access
your web site by visiting the following URL (so you may test
things out)
http://111.111.111/~username/
Just
replace USERNAME with the username assigned to you in your
Activation Email. and replacing the IP with the one provided in
that email as well :-)
4)
What are the name servers for my site?
These
name servers are located in your Activation Email. They look
something like NS3.something.com NS4.something.com Something
like is what you will be looking for. PLEASE DO NOT ASSIGN YOUR
NAME SERVERS to the ones in this example unless you are certain
these are yours. :-) Please allow 24-72 hours for global DNS
updates to update your DNS entries. :-)

Several
ways! :-) Either by uploading your files one by one via your

will need to do is configure the HTML/FTP editor to work with
your site and you should be good to go!
10)
What's the difference between domain pointing and domain parking?
Pointing
- pointing a TLD domain name to a sub-domain giving it the
appearance of an account of it own
Parking
- making a second domain name point to the same web site as
another.
