I have registered a domain name at godaddy.co.uk and want to host it at blue host. i have an account with blue host, i have ADD of the doman and also changed DNS servers to bluehost, but it is still not working. Under my Domain manager it has my new domain but no options for it.

Iv pointed it to the right directory too

www.freexbox360.biz is my current one, that domain is right but want igetitfree.co.uk to point to it also

if you want another name to also point to the freexbox..., then you need a parked domain, not an add-on domain.

Ok iv gone to Parked Domain in Blue host, i entered the igetitfree.co.uk it has done it but the directory say's /public_html not /public_html/freexbox360 how do i change, and i know i have to change the DNS server names over at Godaddy to Blue host, do i have to park the domain name over at godaddy also ?

Thanks

but that say's using it under the redirection way, so when people enter the igetfree address it will redirect to my freexbox one which will display in the address bar, which is not what i wanted

I'm not sure what you want. What you explained is what parked domains are for. If your main domain is domain1.com and you park domain2.com, domain2.com will show the domain1.com content but still keep domain2.com in the URL

Right, as my domain name (igetitfree.co.uk) is registered to godady, i saw i had free hosting credits with them :) so took it up, went ot change Name servers on the domain to godddy, but i kept getting q error email :mad:


They just stay as

NS1.BLUEHOST.COM
NS2.BLUEHOST.COM
