Re: Activation completed website in blue voda?

oh sorry that was my mistake .... so the page you made and called index is not showing up with your domain name which should look like this


www.hottie4ever.com


you can get rid of that page yes

I think you have to get your domain name pointed to vodas servers and you cant seem to do that in your account, i would submit a support ticket to voda asking if they could point your domain to their servers, you may find that you may need godaddy to do this ... they will let you know

at the below of this thread is says

If your domain name is not with VodaHost and you do not know how to
change your name servers. Please give your current reigistrar a telephone
call. Im sure that they will be more than happy to help.


So I believe that is where the problem lies....

yes i would do that as well and it would not hurt to put a support ticket into voda as well for the same matter .... but in reading that I dont think your domain has been pointed to the voda servers and until the registrar (go daddy) unlocks the site and adds you as admin contact etc., I believe you are stumped to have to wait ....

in the meantime, remember when you do get it sorted, your very first page your home page, must be named index, saved as index and published as index, by default this will be the page that the viewers when go to when they click your url ... your domain name ....

GO TEAM GO!!! GO TEAM GO!!!!

Sorry, I been watching you two go back and forth with this, almost in real-time! HA HA HA It's been exciting, for sure!

if you published a page titled: index.html, and you have been able to log into your cPanel, then go to your cpanel(logged in) and look at your address bar in your browser: it should read... http://www.yourdomain?????

delete everything from the end all the way back to the to right after the last letter of what''s listed and type your .? at the end: .com, .org, .net, etc..

i forgot which one you said.. With an index.html page published doing this would take you to it...if not,

I would submit a support ticket with Vodahost

THAT'S JUST IT!! I was writing that post about 4-6posts back, LOL.

I must've been a sloooooow typist because as soon as i posted, you two were saying goodnite. hehehe

i did notice though, that domain is a parked domain, I embarrassed to say do not know much on how those are handled when transferring... maybe this situation would be mainly about transferring a parked domain to VodaHost???

Let me know if this sounds more clear

Re: Activation completed website in blue voda?

lol Robert ... yes I do believe that is the problem, when reading about the pointing of the servers, he should have received further emails etc., about this, also the admin contact on the domain name at the registar go daddy is not himself .... so go daddy needs to release this, voda may not even do anything until go daddy adds his name as admin contact ... yeah ... was all a new thing for me too ... I can't believe I was left holding the fort ... lol .........

glad you joined the party though .... push enter earlier, next time .... lol ....


well he cannot even transfer it to voda until 60 days, and it was just oct. 17th so he just has to point the servers, but cannot get those pointed until go daddy releases, etc. ....

I think ... lol .... I'm heading back to the lounge, lol ..... :)

Re: Activation completed website in blue voda?

If you just purchased your domain name via GoDaddy Oct 17, you are permitted to transfer them immediatly if you so desire.
You will NOT be able to transfer them if you have entered your control panel there and made any changes to the Registration or updated any of your contact information with them for the 60 days you mention.

YOU can make the DNS changes yourself at GoDaddy (I'm not even sure they will do it for you over the phone...too many problems with improper transfers that way?) to point to your VH hosted account, and when you do it yourself, it has been my experience that it takes no more than 3-4 hours for everything to become active. Actually, for me, the average has been about 2 hours (I still have more than 50 domains "parked" there alone).

It's a simple thing to do: log into your account, click on Manage My Domains (left side top nav drop-down under "Domains"), again top left blue underlined listing "Manage Domains", click on the domain itself, and then the "+" next to "Nameservers" and merely type in your VH server info, click Save Changes and - poof! Done!
