Well first i think you have to park your domain, and to edit it and make more files i suggest getting a program called Dreamweaver, or if you don't feel like spending much money get Frontpage.

"but i want to attach my domain name which i have bought www.grafixhouse.com, i dont know how"

what's that suppose to mean? do you have programs with graphics on your sites?
if that's true, check if the image sources is correct (on the WWW but not on your computer)
if the solution cannot help you solve this "problem", can you be more descriptive and post more details so that we can understand it better?

BTW: Freewebs is one of the worst web host i've ever seen, lots of pop-ups, ads, etc. 2/5

i do have front page, and i would very much like is host matrix can host my site.
also its www.grafixhouse.co.uk lol i got it wrong last time but i still cant get used to saying it.

so, i have a homepage. looks very nice. and i have hosted it on free webs but its super slow and yes lots of pop ups so i am going to apply for host matrix at some stage.

what i need is someone to help me who knows how to attach my domain to my site and maybe help me with alot of other things because im fine on the graphics side but nothing else.

Thanx

Peter, i highly doubt that free webs allows you to park domains. I strongly suggest that you get hm hosting, as they offer soo much more than those other crappy free hosts. Free webs i believe dosn't even give you a subdomain i think.

Hey Peter,

I kinda understand what you want. You want to know how to "park" your domain on hostmatrix and upload your site so that when people go to grafixhouse.co.uk they go to your site hosted on hm.


The first step is to request hosting from HM. Once you are approved, you need to upload your site either through your cpanel or an ftp program. If you do it through your cpanel, go to http://hostmatrix.org/cpanel and log in with the name they provided you. Then go to the ftp manager and upload your website. Once it is uploaded you should be able to go to it. For example: http://yourname.hostmatrix.org/file

To park your domain I believe you have to change the nameservers from the place you got it to either n1.hostmatrix.org or n2.hostmatrix.org. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Then you use grafixhouse.co.uk instead of yourname.hostmatrix.org . That's pretty much how you do it. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

[Tim]

Or, you could put in your hosting request that you want your domain to be it, and then just change your Name Servers in the 1&1 control panel to ns1.hostmatrix.org, and ns2.hostmatrix.org, Instead of parking your domain.

just park your domain in cpanel (don't think it will work if it is a redirect domain) well, it would work anyways so you wouldn't need to ask if it was a redirect domain! :lol:
