| We
often find that site owners already have a domain name they purchased
elsewhere and they would like it to be "attached" to their easisite.
This
is how to do that.
Tell
your provider
Go
to the web site of whoever you bought the domain name from and see if
they have a page where you can log-in and alter the technical settings
for the domain name you own.
There
are usually two settings to consider: the site to which web surfers
will be directed (ie. your easisites web address), and where email should
be delivered (eg. your freeserve,aol or hotmail email address).
To
set the one for the web site, you need to enter the full technical address
of your easisite (ie. http://www.easisites.co.uk/nameofyoursite).
To set the email, fill in your everyday email address like you did when
building your easisite so that mail to your domain name is re-routed
to your usual inbox.
If
your domain name company doesn't have a special log-in page for you
to make these changes, send them an email (or phone them or write to
them) and ask them to do it for you. In most cases there's no charge.
Ask
us
If
you have no domain name yet and would like one OR you have one but cannot
get it routed to your easisite, send us an email at admin@easisites.co.uk
and we will help you.
We
can register a name for you (you become the name owner) and set it up
accordingly OR we can take over the technical control of your existing
domain name and do the necessaries.
We
make an admin charge of £50 to register a new name or take over the
duties for an existing one.
In
all cases the domain name belongs to you, our customer, and you
can take it with you to a different provider at any time you wish.
NB:
Transferring a domain name to your easisites web site does not affect
the way your web site functions. You can still use all the usual easisites
facilities - and we will still be invoicing you £50 (+VAT) per annum! |
