Setup
FAQ
1. How do I set up my new account?
Call or email me, answer a few questions, send in your
payment and you are up an running.
You will need to have a domain name figured out
(www.your_domain_goes_here.com) and either own it already or
be prepared to buy it (I suggest godaddy.com. It's
inexpensive and has excellent service). You will need to
decide on a username and password for your FTP account and
if you want to setup email right away, usernames and
passwords for those too.
2. Change your Name Servers
If you already own a domain name, you will simply need
to change your name servers and your site will show up
within a couple hours. If you are purchasing a new domain
name, simply add the name servers I will give you and your
site should be up within minutes. If you are unsure as to
how to do this, I can assist over the phone. I can also do
it for you for a nominal fee of $10.00. |

Emails
FAQ
1. What is a mail account?
A mail account is a "mailbox" that holds your
emails on the server until you view them (download them)
with an email program. An email program is software that
runs on your computer, such as "Outlook Express"
or "Eudora" or "Pegasus Mail". There are
literally thousands of other email programs available; we
recommend that you use "Outlook Express", as it
comes free with every Microsoft Windows installation.
2. How do I setup an email
account?
To set up your email accounts, decide on what they will
be, choose a password for each and either email the
information or call it in. It won't take but a few minutes.
3. What else comes with an email
account?
FormMail, Mailing Lists, Auto Responders, Email
Redirects, Web Mail
4. What is SPAM? '
'SPAM' or 'Unsolicited Commercial email' is e-mail that
is both unsolicited by the recipient and sent in
substantively identical form to many recipients. A common
synonym for spam is unsolicited bulk e-mail (UBE). Some
definitions of spam specifically include the aspects of
email that it is unsolicited and sent in bulk. We do not
tolerate the sending of unsolicited commercial email or "SPAM"
at all.
5. What is the policy on "SPAM"
and "unsolicited emails"?
We do not tolerate the sending of unsolicited
commercial email or "SPAM" at all. We reserve
the right to immediately terminate any domain without
warning, without refund, that sends out unsolicited
commercial email. NOW... if you wish to send email to
people in OPT-IN lists, this is allowed being that those
individuals "ASK" to receive advertisements,
newsletters, or posts to services like Free For All Pages.

FTP
FAQ

FTP means File Transfer Protocol and is an internet
protocol with which you can transfer files over the
Internet. It is fast, reliable and convenient.
2. Can I upload my websites using
FTP?
Yes, you can upload your website using FTP protocol.
The hostname (also called destination address / target
address / ftp address, etc.) for your account is always
ftp.yourdomain.com or the IP address (looks like this: "100.200.150.250")

have changed the nameservers of your domain name to ours. To
