MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / January 2008domain name transfer
I have a website and a domain name. How do i do it so that when someone types the domain name it goes to my site? HT redirect is for Linux and I cant seem to find any other info that helps. Please, please please someone help. You will find directions on how to direct your domain name to your web host from your web host and/or where you registered the domain. Go to the support section of your web host and start reading. If you are going to use Publisher to produce your site, then you might also read: Prepare, publish, and maintain your Publisher Web site: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/publisher/HA100947601033.aspx Other articles: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/publisher/CH100793371033.aspx DavidF >I have a website and a domain name.

Let be break it down what im doing and maybe you can tell me what im doing wrong: this is my website address from my isp- http://members.shaw.ca/citylifewinnipeg/ if i type this in the address bar the site comes up fine. The domain i have is http://citylifewinnipeg.ca(which i purchased for 1 year at a domain site). I want to make it so that when someone types that addres in the address bar it goes to my website for viewing. If you have to talk to me like im 5 years old i dont mind, just please please tell me what im doing wrong. > You will find directions on how to direct your domain name to your web host > from your web host and/or where you registered the domain.

My first guess is that you are using your personal web space rather than a business account, true? If so read item 3: http://www.shaw.ca/en-ca/CustomerCare/InternetSupport/Residential/WebSpace/WebSp aceFAQs.htm#q3 It appears that you cannot use your domain name when you try to use the free web space. You will probably need to select a different web host, as you certainly wouldn't want to host a paid site with Shaw. You can find webhosting for ~$5 a month. I can make suggestions if interested. Who did you register the domain name with? DavidF > Thanks for your help David, but i think im still doing something wrong > because my website still doesnt go to my domain name.

You cannot host your domain on the free personal web space. You will have to find another web host and https://www.domain.ca/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=55&Itemid=111 DavidF > yes i am using personal web space. > [quoted text clipped - 73 lines] >> >> >> > someone >> >> >> > help. I would add that you should contact your webhost to confirm that is indeed what it is saying...that you can't host your domain... DavidF > Then you have your answer.
