Q:What is virtual hosting?

Hosting company will provide Web server and Internet connections for many different companies or individuals at the same time. So that a company or individual doesn't have to purchase and maintain their own Web server and the connection to the Internet. Every customer will have their own web space on the Web server to store their web pages. They also have their own domain names to access those web pages.

Q:What is a Virtual Domain?

A Virtual Domain means that you can have your own Internet domain name (e.g. http://www.yourdomain.com) and your Web site without having to install expensive server hardware and software. With a Virtual Domain, you utilize our server's storage space, and you are represented via your own personal Internet web domain name (e.g. www.yourdomain.com) and by your own personal email address(e.g. yourname@yourdomain.com).

Q: Can I transfer an existing domain name to your servers?

Yes. You should keep the service with your current provider while waiting for InterNIC to complete the transfer process. We will provide you with a temporary web space so you can transfer your site onto our server. All email and web pages will still be accessed from your current site. When InterNIC announces the completion of the transfer there is a 48 hour propagation period where visitors could go to either site. At the end of the 48 hours you should contact your previous host to have them delete the old domain from their records and update their DNS record.

Once the InterNIC announces that your domain name has been registered (or transferred, if applicable), it usually takes about 48 hours before it is activated. All Internet providers must update their records (DNS tables) to reflect the new site's location.

You have unlimited access via FTP 24-hours a day. As such, you can create and maintain your web pages on your own computer and upload files to your web site at any time you want.

Q: Can I upgrade my account?

Yes. You can upgrade/downgrade your account at anytime. You will just pay the difference between your current account and your new account or prolong your contract automatically when you downgrade your account. There are no extra fees involved in upgrading/downgrade.
