DNS servers are web servers that are specifically used to connect on the domain name system. It convert the IP addresses of web sites into names that can be typed into the address bar of a browser. DNS servers use special networking software to transmit information from the server to site visitors and web servers.

Bandwidth means of the amount of data that can be transferred from the web server at any given point in time. When you browse a website, it's actually downloading and uploading information from the web server with every page that is loaded. Sufficient bandwidth is very important to ensure your website can be viewed smoothly by your customer.

Domain parking means there's no actual website available on that domain but just registered with your domain provider. There are two kinds of parked domains – parked by the domain name registrar which is by default, parked intentionally for a small fee.

If your site works fine but cPanel or webmail fails to load, there is a problem with your Internet connection and firewall (or antivirus software). Please make sure your connection or firewall allows outgoing connections to ports 2082, 2083, 2086, 2087, 2095 and 2096 in order to access all cPanel based services. If issue still exists, please contact your network administrator for more assistance, as there is nothing else we could do in this case.

cPanel is a web based hosting control panel provided by many hosting providers to website owners allowing them to manage their websites from a web based interface. This program gives users a graphical interface from which they can control their portion of the Unix server.

Web Host Manager, or WHM, is a powerful program that allows administrative access to the back end of cPanel.

Logging into cPanel through the cPanel URL:

• Visit example.com/cpanel (Be sure to replace example.com with your actual domain). You will then see a login page, it will look like this:
• Login using your cPanel username and password.

Domain names are allocated by the relevant domain authorities on a first-come, first-served basis. Once a domain name has been registered, it is no longer available. The most popular and easily-remembered domain names are being reserved daily, at the rate of one domain name every 5 seconds! At that rate, in the near future, only obscure domain names will be available to the general public.

A good domain name creates inherent value for your organisation. Domain names that reflect the name of your organisation (i.e. sony.com, intel.com, ford.com) are an invaluable asset to your company.

Wouldn't your rather your customers find you on the internet like this? www.yourcompany.com instead of like this? www.yourserviceprovider.com/yourcompany

In some ways, a domain name is similar to a customised license plate - very easy to remember. A domain name allows you to receive e-mail at a customised e-mail address. With a domain name, your email can look like this: yourname@yourcompany.com instead of like this: yourname@yourserviceprovider.com

As the Internet grows and domain names become more scarce, premiums for existing domain names will increase significantly.

Why do I need one right now?

• to avoid costs of address changes later on.
• to avoid somebody else from registering the name you want.
• to maximise the chances of a successful internet presence. Eventually, all the names will be all taken up! Don't be left behind -- the faster you act, the better your chances for getting the domain name you want. Once a domain name is taken, you would have to track down the owner to see if they are willing to sell it.

Go to the Name Search facility on the menu to see if your domain name is available. If it's available, register it by clicking the "Register Name" button.

Many people register a domain name in anticipation of putting up a domain website. They may not be ready for their website at this time, but they may still own the domain name and are under no obligation to put up a website using the domain until they are ready.

Yes. It's called Web Address Redirection or Domain Address Redirection or Domain Forwarding or URL Redirection. This allows you to set up a domain name and direct it to your existing website. You can use your domain address (www.yourcompany.com) and virtual email addresses (yourname@yourcompany.com) on your business cards and letterhead. When viewers enter your domain address they will automatically be redirected to your existing website, without you having to relocate your existing site. This is an easy, affordable option for folks with existing websites that may be free or very inexpensive!
