Ok, so I've got one of those free geocities.com websites, and today I bought a domain name from GoDaddy.com. I read some old threads in this forum and decided to do the private thing so that my info wouldn't be out in the open for everyone to see. I check out and all that great stuff, and then I go to the account manager area. This is where I totally become lost. I have my pages from the geocities site that I'd like to just transfer, but I don't know how to do that. I also read something about an email account ending with @yourdomain.com, but I can't figure out how to set that up either. I tried going to the help section, and it's just a bunch of ads saying, "buy this!!!". So far I'm pretty disappointed with GoDaddy, even though everyone on here recommended it. Would anyone like to give me a quick tutorial or possibly just help me out? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Did you buy just a domain name or did you actually purchase a hosting account?

Sort of, but you need hosting. Drop me a PM and I can host your site for free.

You need to assign a dns server for your domain name.
Try this, it's free. You can do web redirection and a bunch of other stuff with it.

She doesn't need that extra BS with the hosting I am providing.
