FAQ:Technical Questions

|
| How can I simulate sub-websites within
my account ? - Top |
|
To simulate a sub-web site, you have to create a new folder and
then upload the main loading page (index.html). You can setup as
many sub-web sites as you wish. Web InSite only charges additional
fees if you need more space than you initially ordered.
|
| How can I use more than one domain
name ? - Top |
|
We can have several domain names point to site. To add a domain
name to your account just send e-mail to support@webinsite.net
and let us know what domain name(s) you want us to create zone file(s)
for on our name servers. There is a one-time configuration charge
of USD $25 for each additional domain that you want us to link to
your virtual web hosting account.
|
| When will I be able to reach my site using
the domain name ? - Top |
|
Once the domain registry announces that your domain name has been
registered (or transferred, if applicable), it usually takes about
3 to 5 working days before it is active world-wide. All internet
providers must update their records (DNS tables) to reflect new
site locations. This process is called propagation. Even if it should
take longer than expected, there is (unfortunately) nothing Web
InSite can do to actually expedite this process. We have found though
that on the whole most domains are active within 24 hours to MOST
ISP's. There are a few ISP's that just do not update their databases
as frequently as they should.
|
| How do I announce my site ? - Top |
|
We offer an outstanding package for announcing your site. Please
see our site submission package information. If you prefer to do
your own registration, we recommend the major engines beginning
with Yahoo ,
WebCrawler , Lycos , and
AltaVista. Look for an "add URL" option at each of these sites,
as well as links to other search engines.
|
| How do I activate my autoresponder ?
- Top |
|
Autoresponder setups are made through your control panel. If you
are having trouble please contact support@webinsite.net.
|
| How can I change my main POP e-mail account
name? - Top |
|
All email changes can be made through your control panel very simply.
We just set you up with a default email account to get you started
and then you are free to go in and change it to whatever you would
like.

| Does Web InSite support REAL AUDIO?

|
Yes, we do support the streaming http version of Progressive
Networks REAL AUDIO© on certain hosting plans.

- Does Web InSite support Microsoft® FrontPage®
? - Top
|
|
Yes, we fully support FrontPage extensions on all our virtual
Web hosting and WISP virtual servers. When you order your package
you choose whether you want the FrontPage extensions installed
on your account or not. If you already have a virtual Web hosting
account and would like us to install the FrontPage extensions
on your server , please contact support@webinsite.net.
Unlike other providers Web InSite does NOT charge extra for FrontPage
extensions.
