Once you have signed up for web hosting, and received your welcome e-mail, you will be ready to access your account with us, and upload your site.
Your domain is not working on our server yet, but you can still upload your site, access your control panel, and set up your e-mail accounts to get ready for it to go live. It can take 24 to 72 hours for the DNS to change at Internic and updated across the internet. During that time, you can use the IP numbers we sent in your welcome e-mail to get into your site, in place of the domain name.
Your IP will be working at the time you receive your information from us. To see your empty site on our server, simply put the IP in your web browser like this; http://66.103.135.1 , of course replace the numbers with the ones sent from us in your welcome e-mail. It also works for your control panel, and FTP. This allows you to log in, set up your site, and test things before it goes live.
Your e-mail will not work at our server until about 12 hours after your name starts working. You can set up your e-mail addresses in your control panel, but they won't work until the site works by the domain name.
