Domain and website transfer

[kachano]

Hello BV members,

My firm's web-designer is taking the piss of late. I have told my boss that he can always use BV (user friendly) software to re-design the website by himself and transfer the domain here.

He put me in-charge of re-designing and transferring the domain. The website www.theconfab.net is up and running. How would I go about transferring the domain? I know how to use BV!

Please keep in mind that I am an amateur.

A step by step guide would be apprecited.

Hi,

Set up a hosting account for your company with VodaHost.

Submit a support ticket to apply for a free transfer and VodaDomains will
transfer the domain to your account.

Re: Domain and website transfer

Thanks very much for the linky Doug.

Zuriatman,

Where can I get a support ticket to apply for a free transfer? Do you mean "freedomain" coupan?

Ok here's a screen shot of the website which I am working on.



Another question that I want to ask is .....

should I name the page as www.theconfab.net/theconfab-quality-approach or should I name it as www.theconfab.net/quality-approach ?

Visitors can get to this page once they visit theconfab website and then click on the second icon at the top (from left) labelled "The Confab".

Now my question is which one of the above is suitable?

I would very much appreciate if you guys give some suggestions on colour schemes too.

This is really up to you...But I would go with the shorter keyword rich version.

Re: Domain and website transfer

Hello guys,

The website www.theconfab.net is up and running. I have managed to get the e-mail address changed to me account so that I get the transfer confirmation e-mail.

Before I start the procedure, I'd like to ask a few questions as follows:

Once I transfer the domain, www.theconfab.net, to Voda servers, will I be able to get rid of the website, which isn't programmed using Blue Voda?

Will it cost us anything to get rid of the website and upload the new website that is being built using Blue Voda?

Thanks in advance for your input.

Just a few clicks on the mouse in your Control Panel before you upload your new website is all it takes!

I would first backup/copy all your "old website" files into a folder onto your computer for safekeeping rather than simply delete them outright, however ..... never know if you will need them in the future!

Thanks very much for the info, Vasili. I have a backup on a cd. I will be using them with some modifications.

Once again thanks very much for the info.

Re: Domain and website transfer

Another question for you lot!

We use "google mail service for organisations" with our website, www.theconfab.net . It is a free service.

The question is:

Will we loose all our e-mails (thousands of them) when we transfer to vodahost?

Thank you.

Kachano

P.S: I have already designed the look of the website using BV. I have also called the hosting to unlock the domain. Almost ready to switch to vodahost.

Re: Domain and website transfer

you can still use google mail or you can use our mail, server.

Re: Domain and website transfer

Thank you very much for the reply, Vodahost. I won't loose any e-mail when I switch to vodahost, right?

Re: Domain and website transfer

Hello,

I have just transferred the domain, www.theconfab.net, to BV server. The said website isn't designed with BV software. I have recently designed one, in BV, and would like to publish it. How do I go about it? What should I do with the already designed website (up and running on the server and not designed using BV)?

A step by step guide would be higly appreciated.

I am a novice.

Thanking you in advance for your help.
