Concordia Posted July 14, 2005 Posted July 14, 2005 Hello, your site is very appealing, and I am highly considering joining. I just have one question about the domains. Do I need my own domain (www.sitedomain.com) or will you give me a free one, like for example wwww.totalchoicehosting.com/username? I do not currently have a domain and I am not interested in buying one, however I can register a free sub-domain from a site such as 2ya.com if required. Thank you for your response, Concordia Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted July 14, 2005 Posted July 14, 2005 Hi Concordia and welcome to the forums. You need to purchase a domain name to host a site here. You can purchase a domain name through TCH or any valid registrar. Quote
Concordia Posted July 15, 2005 Author Posted July 15, 2005 Okay, I will consider buying one. And thank you! Quote
credence Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 Hi...I also have a question on domains and rather then make an entirely new thread I thought I would post here... If I have 2 domain names can I register them with one TCH account and host them here? Thanks in advance, Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 Hi and welcome to the forum. Yes, as long they point to same content/root, you can park them on top of each other. For having different domains to point to different content within same hosting account you will need a reseller account. Quote
TCH-Andy Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 Welcome to the forum If they are two separate domains, to different files, then you would need 2 accounts. If they are mytchdomain.com and mytchdomain.net, pointing to the same files, then you can have them on one account. Quote

TCH-Thomas Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 On a virtual account, no. Only on a reseller account. Quote
Alec Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Just to clarify then (was about to ask this question myself). I already have an account with TCH (virtual), but am currently considering another online venture (which would just be a very small site initially), there's NO way for me to use the same account for both domains (assuming I wanted the content totally seperate)? Also, I notice that your cheapest reseller account is $19.99, so I'd be cheaper to just buy a completely seperate virtual account... yes? TIA. Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Hosting two or several domains on same account, would only be allowed on a reseller account unless parked on each other pointing to the same content. So in your case, it´s correct, 2 virtual accounts would be what you are looking for, unless going for a reseller. Quote
