Domain Name Q. What is a domain name? A. A domain name is what is needed in order for people to find your website on the net. An example of this would be our domain name of www.eedie.com. Think of it like your name (Robert Smith), now if no one knew your name was Robert Smith...how would they find you in the phone book? It's just a name that is associated/linked to your site. Q. How do I choose a domain name? A. Remember...shorter is better. www.rs.com would be the best, www.rsmith.com would be second and so forth. Try to make easy enough to remember so that people can find you. Q. Which one do I choose? .com, .net, .biz,.org, .info A. .com &.net are the norm and we would recommend you use one of these unless you are a non-profit and then it would be .org. The others are there if that's what you decided you like...but the majority will look for you at .com. Q. Ok, I bought a domain name now what? A. We need to get that domain name pointing at where your site resides. If we are hosting your site, the DNS would have to be changed to point too NS1.ediesinc.com & NS2.ediesinc.com. If your site is elsewhere the same holds true and Name servers would need to be supplied.
