Hosting Frequently Asked Questions
What is Website Space?
This generally refers to the amount of space on a web server that is allocated to website owners by the web hosting company. The physical space that will be available to you for your website account which stores your html or text files, images, scripts, databases, emails and other files and will make them available for any one to view on the Internet
Can I transfer my Domain Name to your Hosting?
Yes, just let us know you are requesting a "Domain Transfer" and not a new domain. You should keep the service with your current provider while waiting to complete the transfer process. If the contact email on your domain has changed from the time you originally registered your Domain, you will need to contact the original Registering Company to make changes
