[Solved] Add my Domain to my heliohost control panel


msbsurfi

Recommended Posts

Site Address: msbsurfi.helioho.st

Domain to be added: dev.hhfn.org.bd

I want to build a wordpress site. The only person is me who will be visiting the wp site continuously (for development purposes). then I will extract a static copy of the site which will be displayed to public. Will it overrun the hosting service quota?

I've added that domain for you. Please note that it can take up to 2 hours to be fully working. If after 2 hours, it doesn't work on your side, please make sure you clear your web browser cache: https://wiki.helionet.org/misc/clear-your-cache 

In the meantime, please either: 

  • Point your domain to the HelioHost nameservers: `ns1.heliohost.org` and `ns2.heliohost.org`, or
  • Create an A record and point it to the IP address for the Johnny server. You can see the IP address to use inside Plesk > Websites & Domains > [domain name] > and check at the bottom of the page.

For WordPress, even a brand new site with no visitors can be at risk of exceeding the hosting limits, because of things like bot attacks. Your intention of converting it to a static site before publishing it is a good one, and much less likely to cause your account any load issues. Doing this is one of the recommendations we have on our WordPress help page at https://wiki.helionet.org/misc/wordpress and there's some other guidance there too that you may find helpful. 

If you're the only person who will be using the dynamic site, you might want to consider running it on your local machine only. Once the site has been set up how you want it on your local machine, you can then convert it to a static site before you publish/deploy it. This would reduce the risk of exceeding the account load limits on the shared hosting.
