Wisewizz Hosting specializes in Virtual Web Hosting which means that you are able to establish a strong recognizable Internet presence on the Internet by using your Domain Name (www.yourname.com). We will help register your own domain name which will become your unique address on the World Wide Web.

Following four simple steps are required to get started with us.

1. Sign up - Contact us by phone or email. Write down your username and password in a safe place.
    
2. Receive instructions - After adding the domain to your account, please give us some time to set up your web site. It is usually 5 to 6 hours during business hours (9am to 5pm 7 days). If add domain submissions are received after business hour, then sites are set up next day morning. After setting up each site, we will send you an email with detail instructions on FTP, email management etc.
    
3. Modify DNS - If you registered the domain through any company other than our site www.wisewizz.com, then you have to modify name server information so that the DNS start pointing towards our name server. Most of the time, you will be able to make this change online by going to the web site of your registration service providing company. Any change in DNS need to be propagated over the internet and this time could be from 6 hrs to 72 hrs. No one has control on this.
    
4. FTP - When DNS propagation is complete, if you type your domain on any browser, you will see your site displaying "this site is under construction .....". At this time you can upload your files by following our FTP instructions. At the same time you should be able to create your email accounts also.

Wisewizz Hosting has their own web page design services department that will help you design the perfect webpage for your company or individual needs with the information you want to be shown on your Web site. See our web design page for more information.

Once Wisewizz has received your request for the registration or transfer of a Domain Name it takes approximately 48 hours to complete the Domain Name Registration process.

When you have a web site which is already up and running with another provider, follow the procedure below:

1. Submit the domain via phone or email to us.
2. We will set up the site on our server and allocate a temporary IP address.
3. We will send you an email with the IP address and procedure to upload with FTP.
4. Upload your files according to this procedure.
5. Check and make sure everything is working fine. At this stage you can access your site by typing the IP address only.
6. Modify the DNS information so that your domain starts pointing towards our "Name Server". It takes about 24 to 48 hours for this information to be propagated over the Internet. During this time, when someone types your domain name in their browser, he/she will see your site either on the previous server or on our server. At the end of this propagation period, your site will be available only from our server. At this point, you may notify your previous provider to delete the site from their server.
   
   Note: If, you require Pre-Publishing please mention it in the features or additional request while filing out the order form.

Files can be transferred to the web server using an FTP program (File Transfer Protocol). You can download a program for either the PC or Mac from our site. Cute FTP is a shareware FTP program, available from cuteftp.com . An FTP tutorial is available for first time users.

Microsoft FrontPage users can 'publish' their sites to our server and should not use FTP.

To get your own domain, you must register your domain. See domain registration.

To avoid email downtime the following steps need to be taken before modifying the DNS:

1. Set all emails on the old server to auto-forward to a third party email address or ISP provided email address.
2. We will create a "catchall" email on the new server (our server) and set it to auto-forward to the same third party email address or ISP provided email address.
3. Modify your DNS information and propagation will begin. During this propagation period emails will either go to the old server or to the new server. In both the cases, emails will be instantly forwarded to the third party email address or ISP provided email address.
4. At the end of propagation period, you may cancel the email forwarding as well as create more POP email accounts on the new server.
