Just registered a domain, I am such a noob.

Registered a domain just for fun.
Now what?

 

[LakerGod]

Make a website or use it for email.

 

[FrustratedUser]

Yeah, but I only got the domain name. Now I have to find out how to make it work with my current ISP web space.

 

[TheOmegaCode]

get free web space, and forward the domain name...

 

[FrustratedUser]

noob question:

How to forward?

 

[TheOmegaCode]

hopefully you didn't just go out and buy the first domain name available... There should be an option from the company you bought it from...

 

[FrustratedUser]

Yes, I there was. I should contact them about it.

BTW, the domain is www.anandtechmoderator.com

LOL!

 

[FrustratedUser]

A good time to bump now.

Learn about DNS. Someone has to provide DNS for your site.

 

[FrustratedUser]

Thanks.
Will do that.

How much did you buy that domain??

 

[FrustratedUser]

<< How much did you buy that domain?? >>



You mean what I payed?
$17.95 for 2 years
LOL!

check out www.mydns.com, they offer a full FREE dns service even if you don't have the domain from them. Just register an account at their site, have the registrar you bought your domain at put mydns' dns server in their file, and you can use the mydns webinterface to configure all your domains. Lots of options, no limits, and very fast adjustments.

Pleasant.

 

[FrustratedUser]

Thanks for the 'pleasant' tip.

Sounds like you should have asked a few more questions before buying. Good luck with it.

 

[FrustratedUser]

I just needed to own www.anandtechmoderator.com

No time to think. LOL!
