Whonami-How to fix DNS issues for new hosting accounts

When you set up your hosting account, we’ll let you know if your cheap domain name‘s DNS settings do not point to it. This means the content you uploaded will not display until you update your domain name’s DNS settings.

If you don’t want your new site to start displaying for everyone, don’t change the DNS settings. If you want to make sure your new site looks good, check out Preview your website.

Once you’re ready to display your new site, you can update your DNS settings at your domain name’s registrar (i.e. the company where you registered it) in one of two ways:

  • A Record / IP Address — Updating your domain name’s primary A record (usually denoted by the @ symbol) does not change any of your other DNS settings (e.g. email service). Use the IP address you find using What is my website’s IP address?.
  • Nameservers — Updating your domain name’s nameservers also changes all of your domain name’s DNS settings to our defaults (e.g. using our email service). Use the nameservers you find in Find your website’s nameservers.

These changes can take up to 48 hours to start displaying on the Internet.

If your domain name’s registered here, see Manage DNS for Your Domain Names orChange Nameservers for Your Domain Names.

Whonami-How to change your account’s domain names

In order to change the primary cheap domain names on a hosting account lets you change the domain name associated with account’s Web root directory.

There are something to remember: 

1- If you already added the domain name you want to use as your primary hosted domain name, you need to remove it first. You might also need to remove any subdomains of your primary domain name before you can change it. For more information, see Remove domains.

2- If you have an SSL certificate applied to your hosting account, you cannot change your primary hosted domain name without revoking your SSL. For more information, see Revoking an SSL Certificate.

3- WordPress® installations can break when you change your primary domain. If they do, see the instructions on WordPress’s site.

Log in to your Account Manager.
Click Web Hosting.
Next to the hosting account you want to use, click Manage.
From the More menu, select Hosted Domains.
Select your primary hosted domain, and then click Change Primary.
Enter the new primary domain for your account, and then click OK.

Whonami- Sub domain names

Sub domain names are not handled technically in the same way as regular domains (on the backend), for the most part they work the same way so far as the end user is concerned.

There are two significant reasons that sub domains are used: to allow users to register otherwise unavailable domain names or to organize large websites.
In the first instance, a sub domain is created when an existing domain owner allows you to register and use a new domain directly under their existing domain name, similar to how a regular Registry works.

These sub domains give the end user an opportunity to register a great sounding cheap domain name that would otherwise be unavailable at a regular Registry. Having been widely recognized and accepted by the Internet community, sub domain names are being used by many as their main website URL and are now being sold in the domain aftermarket as well.

Whonami-The meaning of domain hosting or website hosting, web hosting

Hosting (also known as cheap website hosting or cheap Web hosting) is the business of housing, serving, and maintaining files for one or more websites. In a sense, you rent space on a computer to hold your website.
