• I just did a WHOIS lookup on
my new domain name and it says there is no match (still available)?
The WHOIS database of the registries usually gets updated once a
day. Your domain name information will not show up until the WHOIS
database is updated. Please wait 24hrs before doing a WHOIS search
on your newly registered domain name.
• I don't have a website yet. What
will people see if they type in my newly registered domain name?
When someone tries to access you site by typing your domain name
in a browser, they will see an undercontruction
page. This is what they will see until you find a hosting company
and publish your site. .
• How do I connect my new domain
name to my existing website?
There are two ways to do this:
The first is by using DomainProcessor's Free URL forwarding service. It
will point your domain name, for example, www.mydomainname.com
to your existing site at a hosting provider, for example, www.geocities.com/lot2/38423/myweb.
Login to your Account Manager to
activate URL forwarding.
The second way is to modify the
DNS information of your domain name at Account
Manager. You will need to ask your hosting company to
provide the primary and secondary DNS information.
• Where do I go to manage my
domain name?
To manage your domain name registered through DomainProcessor, login
to your Account Manager.
• My web hosting company is asking me to transfer my domain
name to their DNS server. What does that mean?
It simply means that you need to modify the domain name server
(DNS) associated with your domain name. Login to your Account
Manager and enter the new DNS
information provided by your hosting company.
