MOVING / TRANSFERING FROM ANOTHER HOST -
ZERO DOWNTIME!!! |
- DO NOT CHANGE
YOUR NAMESERVERS JUST YET NOR
DELETE YOUR CURRENT WEB HOST!
- Establish a
hosting account with us. You
will then be able to access your
new account via the server's
hostname which you will get on
your setup email. Start
uploading your website files to
your domain folder through FTP
or any other site publishing
software (FrontPage, Dreamweaver,
HomeSite, etc.)
- In your
welcome email, you will get a
temporary link to access your
NEW web site before anything
goes live. Verify that
everything is working on your
NEW site (graphics, web pages,
links, etc...)
- Once
verified, go to your registrar
and change your "name servers"
to those that are mentioned in
your setup email.
- Your site
will be updated WORLDWIDE within
24-72 hours. Note: although you
may be able to see your site is
on your new server within
possibly 12 hours, please allow
a complete 72 hour cycle before
you delete your old host.
- Enjoy your
new site @ The Web Hosting
Network If you have any problems
during the transfer, please have
a live chat session with our
support staff and let us know
what you've done so far, and
we'll help you finish it all up!
EVEN IF YOU DO IT RIGHT, drop us
a line and let us know that you
love the speed!

IF YOU
ALREADY PURCHASED A DOMAIN AND WANT TO HOST WITH US... |
- First step is
you establish a web hosting
account with us. Start by
ordering any of our premium web
hosting plans.
- After your
payment is verified you will get
your setup email within 30
seconds. In there will be all
your usernames / passwords that
grant you access to the server
via your assigned server
hostname. Proceed to upload your
files to the server via the
server's hostname. MAKE SURE YOU
PUT EVERYTHING IN YOUR DOMAIN
FOLDER and MAKE SURE YOU RENAME
YOUR HOMEPAGE "index.html" ALL
LOWER CASE. Then use the
temporary link provided in the
email to view your site.
- Once you have
everything verified go to the
place where you originally
registered your domain (your
registrar).
- In your setup
email(s) there will be a pair of
DNS or Nameservers. Use those
DNS to change them for your
domain. If you don't have a
domain control panel (that is
where you usually can do these
changes) please email your
registrar or call them and tell
them to change your name servers
to those provided to you in your
setup email from us.
- After the DNS
changes has been made your
domain will now begin to point
to your server with The Web
Hosting Network. This will take
24-72 hours to resolve along the
whole world as every ISP updates
their DNS at different times.
- If after 48
hours you can not access your
domain via www.yourdomain.com
please do a whois on your domain
HERE make sure your name servers
show up as those provided in
your setup email. If they do not
call your registrar right away to
get it corrected!
