    Hi, Firstly you will have to go to a domain registrar and buy your chosen domain name. You can buy them through VH or do a search in google 'buy a domain name'.

      .. or if you have a domain and its pointing to VH servers and you are building your home page in BV, then save this page as index and publish.

        Hi TigerT,
        Click here to learn more and how to register a doamin and hosting with VodaHost.
        If you rather want to register a .co.za domain, click here. You can then still host the web site with VodaHost.
        Bless you

            Hi thanx Darren

            Just to give you a bit of info on what I'm trying to do.

            I just got BV today and I'm still playing around but I'm trying to create a web page on endometriosis. I have a big support group on Facebook but a lot of members has asked me how can they join the group without joining Facebook so I decided to create a web page for the group so that the members can join and post blogs pic's ect on the site like they would have on a facebook group.

            So I will be posting alot of questions in the future. Its quiet different from coding in HTML and so on because I've created the web page in DHTML but ya.

            Thanx for your help
            Have a nice day
            Semper fi....

              Hi Tom

              Thanx I will look into the future reading, as i just explained to Darren what my plans are i would like to leave it as a .com domain. Just one quick question if i understand correctley your first domain is free and you don't need to buy it if you register it through BV?.

              Thanx Chris
