Waffles Posted June 15, 2004 Posted June 15, 2004 1) So can I purchase a domain name at say, godaddy, and then get a hosting plan here and just point it straight at the IP address I get? 2) You said that you can have two parked domains.... can I have my second domain (should I get one) pointed at a subdomain instead? The reason I ask this is that I play NationStates, and I have a nation called Spaam. In addition to all my other content, I'd like to have a few pages for my nation in the same site. However, I'd like to have, say www.spaam.com point to it as well, but have the real site at say, spaam.mynewsite.com, though it wouldn't really be visited all that much. Is this possible, or do you REALLY not like any domains pointing to subdomains? (I'm just planning on getting a $5 plan.) Cheers, Jack Waffles Quote
Alan Posted June 15, 2004 Posted June 15, 2004 gDay Waffles, I am NOT TCH Staff, so if I am wrong about the advice I give you, 'Which I am most likely not' than a TCH Staff Member/Mod/Better knowing Customer will be along shortly to correct me. 1) So can I purchase a domain name at say, godaddy, and then get a hosting plan here and just point it straight at the IP address I get?Yes, purchase your domain name, and in the signup process do the 'Use my current domain' and there ya go. Just point the nameservers to:ns1.totalchoicehosting.com ns2.totalchoicehosting.com 2) You said that you can have two parked domains.... can I have my second domain (should I get one) pointed at a subdomain instead? Yes you can park domains, via the helpdesk. No you can not park them on subdomains unless your on a reseller account, it is explained in the AUP. Hope this Helps. ~Alan Quote
