Question: Are you hosting with someone more expensive (and probably getting a lot less)? Would you like to have your domain hosted with us instead, and save money WITHOUT losing traffic OR Email?
We can host any domain whatsoever. Its possible to switch to our servers without interrupting your website. Here is how: First, click here to order your account. You will receive all the FTP details you need in a welcome email. Second, upload your website from your local copy to your trial Adfree Web Hosting account. See our support site yourwebhostingsupport.com on how to preview your site on our server. Also set up your important email users and aliases so that when redelegation and propagation take place, email will go where it should. Thirdly, to ensure no email could ever go missing during the transfer, using the services of your old host, make sure all email is automatically forwarded to a temporary free email address you can obtain with Yahoo or Hotmail, for example. While propagation is taking place, email could go either to the old or the new IP address. Make sure the email directed to your old account is forwarded to a temporary address. Fourthly, contact the company through whom you registered your domain (NOT your old hosting company - unless they control your domain as the admin contact. You need to be the admin contact for your domain, or you don't really control it). You may have registered through Verisign, or some other company. If you have a .com.au domain, you probably registered through Melbourne IT at www.inww.com.au. These companies usually have web forms and/or procedures you need to follow to get a redelegation of your domain. Basically, you need to have the domain point to our NAMESERVERS. The information you need is below: |
| Our Name Server Info and How to Transfer your Domain to Adfree Web Hosting: |
| Please also consult your Welcome Email you receive when your account is activated, and read information at our site http://yourwebhostingsupport.com. If you are on our old resold accounts and you need the Name Server info, PLEASE contact us for the information, as it did change due to an upgrade the suppliers forced on us. We have been running our own servers for almost a year now and we are able to provide much better service than what MANY others are paying for. We know from experience. Customers wishing to move to our faster new servers should contact sales@snt.com.au. DNS redelegation details for our new servers: Primary Name Server: NS1.DNSTOIP.COM Once the redelegation has been authorised by you and implemented by the company who registered the domain name, it usually takes 24-36 hours for the new information about the domain to become known right across the internet. At that time, anyone using your domain name on a web browser will get files from our servers. Please also note that sometimes email takes a little longer than the web for propagation of changes, so make sure you keep your old account at least 3 days after you order with us, and have it forward all your email to a THIRD PARTY E-MAIL ADDRESS as a TEMPORARY MEASURE. For example, you could get a free email address at Yahoo to make sure none of your important mail could go missing during the transfer period. The chances are not large, but its a good precaution to take. It might be a good idea to make a very slight difference on one of your pages when you upload it to our servers, so that you can tell when the new domain settings have truly taken effect and propagated right across the Net. Its only so you can see when the domain changes have come through. Once your domain is successfully pointing to your site with us, pay for your account here, and then you can notify your old hosting company that you wish to cancel your services with them. From then on in, you can enjoy knowing you are not wasting your money any more - and enjoy the quality of service you'll come to expect from our company! And once you are, be sure to tell your friends about us, and earn 2 months of free hosting for every customer you refer to us. Just make sure when they sign up they mention you in the 'How heard' field. Success! Michael Fackerell http://www.adfreewebhosting.com/
