Hey Alex,
You'll need to register a domain name with a registrar - many people
here have recommended GoDaddy, which is what I use. Let's say you
register "alextweedly.com" Then you edit the Nameserver setting with
the registrar so that it points to On-Rev with the info that On-Rev
provides, which is probably:
ns1.on-rev.com
ns2.on-rev.com
Then you can create an "Add-on" domain in your On-Rev control panel
with the name you registered. Place your web site files in this new
directory. Within a short while everything should sync up and requests
for "alextweedly.com" will bring visitors to your On-Rev hosted site.
And with On-Rev you can host unlimited sites.
A "freebie" you get with On-Rev is a user space with your account
name, like "alextweedly.on-rev.com". You can host a site at this
address without further registration.
HTH,
No, it doesn't - but thanks for trying to help.
I already have a domain (actually, quite a few of them :-)
I want to migrate some of them to OnRev, but like Sarah I want to test
them properly before I risk changing nameservers, in case I am breaking
something, and would have the site be down for a day or two before I can
change them back again.
So the process Sarah described, namely
[...] wanted to test it out before changing the DNS entries.
I created a sub-domain "troz.troz.on-rev.com" so I could migrate my
site & test it, before changing it to an AddOn domain and altering the
DNS.
So the question was quite precise .... how do you "change a sub-domain
to an AddOn domain" ?
There is no mention in the docs (afaics) of changing sub-domain to addon
domain.
Thanks

Could you expand slightly on how you do this ?
I (think I) unerstand most of it
- create a sub-domain
- copy files over
- test it
But how do you "change a sub-domain to an AddOn domain" ?
Thanks
