I am having trouble figuring out how to use the website. I was under the impression that I build my web page here, and collect a domain name.If someone could tip me off on how to use this site please reply!!!!
View Finder
Two different questions, two different answers.
First of all, astahost offers website hosting. This means that, once you start being a hosted member, you get a website, where you can upload your ready-made website (if you have already written your index.hmtl file and it's correlated files. If you did create and test your own website yet, astahost offers ready-made facilities, like phpbb forum creator or picture alleries creators. And the cpanel associated to your website has facilities for uploading your files or editing the uploaded files.
This is the basic plan. Typically, if your username is "viewfind", your website will be reacheable at the address
http://viewfind.astahost.comIf you don't want this really long site name, you can also (but this is not really necessary) also order a short impressive domain name. For instance if you want your site to be reached at the address "http://www.vfinder.com", simply order the domain name vfinder.com and ask this domain name to pint to your astahost account. Once you ordered both these items, you own your domain name and you astahost website, and you use the tools astahost and Xisto provide you for configuring that.
I hope this was clear enough, else do not hesitate to ask for more info.
