Setup A Website On Heliohost Using An Owned Domain Name

[AtomicBob]

I recently managed to lose a dot.tk domain that I had hosted on 000 webhost, now they want me to pay for it! that's what you get for not keeping a calendar of the expiration dates I guess.

 

So unperturbed but straying slightly from the path of my free for the free ethos we got a 'cheap' .co domain from namecheap.com, I have allready changed the nameservers over too Heliohost but currently I am just redirecting it too our site on 000webhost. I have applied too Johnny for a hosting account but I got this message in an email after day or so:

 

Your hosting account at HelioHost has encountered an error during installation. The error is:

 

Sorry, that's an invalid domain

 

I wonder what went wrong, I have signed up again using the name of the site with no www. or http:// prefix but again after more than 24 hours it still isn't showing signs of life. Any ideas or assistance would be great! All the best to the best.

 

Solved! Its online now great! the problem may have been the address with the http://www prefix from the site that I copied and pasted from my browser, signing up with just the name seems to have worked fine.

 

Well thank you all at HelioHost for the greatest service on the web I'm off to setup my new website!
