setting up a website
When I switched from Cox to Fios here in Northern Virginia I lost the website I hosted and played around with. It took 10 calls, but someone finally told me they blocked that port. So I hosted the site out. It's only a hundred bucks a year or so. My 16-year-old son likes all this speed we now have, I am finding out that youngsters only vaguely use websites like this. Our Fios speed is 25 up down Is web-closing standard so I don't have too much traffic? I own my last name domain, and it's time to switch and I just wondered if there was a way around this. I know I can set up sites using direct site numbers and such. But I wanted to make it so I could set it up so the seeker wouldn't have to know anything different than the last name. I get e-mail with no problem. Just curious. I have hosted many sites, but never had this to deal with... ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~
RE: setting up a website
Many carriers differentiate between business and personal use. And they consider hosting to be business use. GoDaddy is something ridiculously cheap like $4.50 a month. (I prepay annually and my cost is less than $4 a month.) Regards, Michael B.

RE: setting up a website
I've dealt with this stuff for years and you lost me... Site numbers? Are you talking about a dedicated IP address versus a shared server hosting? I *believe* you're also wanting to know about DNS (i.e., how to tie the dedicated IP to your actual domain name). Is this correct?
