DOMAIN NAME REGISTRATION

Will you register a domain name for me when I signup?

emedia-webhosting.com is not a domain registrar and we feel it is best to leave domain registrations to those who specialize in just that, while we focus on providing you with the best Web Hosting possible.  We do however recommend godaddy.com as they provide exceptional support and extremely competitive pricing for domain registrations.

Can I have more than one domain name "pointing" to my website?

Yes. Many customers want the .com, .net, and .org versions of their domain name all pointing to their website.  This is known as domain parking, or domain pointing and each of our hosting plans provide unlimited parked domains.

Why do I have to change the name servers for my domain?

A name server is like a telephone book, so when you type a web address into your web browser, the browser looks up your domain name and then contacts the name servers for your domain to determine where your domain is hosted.  If you do not update the name servers for your domain, web browsers will not be able to locate your site on our servers. 

How do I change my name servers to point to your servers?

Each domain registrar is different and has their own procedures for changing the name servers associated with your domain.  Our customer support team has extensive experience with many of the domain registrar's and will gladly assist you with this process.

Can you update my name servers for me?

In order to change the name servers for your domain, you are required to login to the control panel provided by your domain registrar.  In most cases changing your name servers is quite simple and doesn't take more than a couple minutes of your time (our support team can provide excellent directions for most registrars), however if you are experiencing difficulties doing so and are willing to provide our support team with your login and password so we can access your registrar's control panel, we will gladly make the changes for you.

I've changed my name servers, how long will it take before I can see my site?

The length of time will vary depending on your registrar and how quickly they submit your changes to the registry database, but in the majority of cases the name server changes will propagate throughout the internet with 24 - 72 hours.
