The Hosted Service

Hello,

Following on from the following post:
Hosted Info??

I do not have much programming knowledge and hence the hosted option would be good for me. But I am a bit confused about the following:

1. If I have my own domain, or want my own domain, then can I use this/do this or do I get a set address with your hosted option?

2. Would you recommend this option to someone like me who does not have much programming knowledge but needs this solution to start my website?

Thank you,

Stephen

Hi Stephen,

Let me answer your questions.

1. If I have my own domain, or want my own domain, then can I use this/do this or do I get a set address with your hosted option?

We let you define your own. Then we set everything up and get it installed. Also by going this route we give you full hosting control panel access so you can install other scripts, set up emails, use ftp, etc.

2. Would you recommend this option to someone like me who does not have much programming knowledge but needs this solution to start my website?

Yes that is the best way and that is what we recommend doing.

Sorry for the delayed reply.

Thank you for your reply. Just one more question. So if I buy a domain from another company, then I can use this with the hosted classifieds? Is that correct?

Thanks

Yes, you can get your domain name from any company you like. You will need to manage your domain however via the domain control panel through the company you purchased it from and enter some details so that when someone types the domain name into a browser it takes them to where ever you have your site hosted.

Thanks for the help.

I have made a purchase of the hosted version. How long roughly does it take until I receive an e-mail or until the service is ready for use? I put in a support ticket just to check everything was ok also.

I suspect you will be contacted sometime today. You should register in the forums since you are a customer. It might also be helpful to the 68C staff, if they are reading this post to know your name so they can look it up, just in case it was overlooked.

Thanks for reply, I shall register today.
