Question About Domain Forwarding

[Guest Avery]

I just registered Turbobuy.com for my ecommerce business and I currently have a hosting account with you guys for averywong.com. How can I get files to come out like www.turbobuy.com/computers or computers.turbobuy.com? Basically how can I store files directly to turbobuy.com, can this be done via domain forwarding or do I have to pay for hosting? Also is it possible to transfer a hosting account from one domain to another? Say I want to transfer the hosting from Averywong.com to Turbobuy.com, and then do a domain forwarding to Averywong.com from the Turbobuy.com webspace.

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

Right, to get files to come out like www.turbobuy.com/computers you need a folder called computers in ur account. Now to get computers.turbobuy.com create a subdomain called "computers" in your account. Remember that the subdomain can also be accessed via typing in www.turbobuy.com/computers.

 

Then it all gets a bit complicated with your next question.

 

If your turbobuy.com and Averywong.com are being used for different purposes, maybe to I) sell computers and II) Something else, then yes, under TCH TOS agreements you will need 2 seperate accounts.

 

The bit which goes:

Say I want to transfer the hosting from Averywong.com to Turbobuy.com, and then do a domain forwarding to Averywong.com from the Turbobuy.com webspace.

Is kinda of a double negative in the way I read it. You can transfer the wong to turbo as your main account by dropping a help ticket to the help desk. You can then forward wong to turbo via domain forwarding if your registar allows it. Although this must be to the same page as tubro is and must not be anythign different.

 

I hope that makes sense!

Let me add a little to this thread -

This is true IF the hosted name is turbobuy.com. You cannot make a folder called computers on averywong.com and have the domain name turbobuy.com forwarded to that folder.

 

If you want the hosted name changed to turbobuy.com, then yes, drop a help ticket, and we can take care of that for you.
