How do I sign up for the
free business card web page, e-mail forwarding and domain forwarding?
Once you've registered your domain, simply go to the account manager through
the client login area using your domain and password. Once inside, click
on "additional services," and pick the service you would like
to add.
How much does e-mail and
domain forwarding cost?
There is no charge associated with these either of these services. However,
if you use our free domain forwarding service, a small banner will be
placed at the bottom of your web site. Our url forwarding service requires
no banner.
How do I set up e-mail or
domain forwarding?
1) Check to make sure that your domain is parked on the following DomainPeople
name servers:
ns1.domainpeople.com
ns2.domainpeople.com
2) Go to the client login area, click on "additional services," and choose e-mail and/or domain forwarding from the drop down menu.
What features does the business
card web page come with?
Our customizable business card web page is a great way to establish an
immediate web presence using your new domain name. It's easy to set up,
and allows you to insert a photo, a page of text, and several links.
Where do I go to edit and
update my web site?
It's in the client
login area and you don't need any specialized technical or HTML knowledge
to set it up. This simple template allows you to add your contact information,
text, a graphic, three links and choose from one of eight background designs.
I already have a web site.
How can I get my new domain name to point to my web site?
With our free domain forwarding service, you can direct visitors from
your newly registered domain to your existing web site. When a visitor
enters your new web address, for example, www.newdomain.com, in the web
browser, your existing web site appears on the screen. To use our free
domain forwarding service, a small banner will be placed at the bottom
of your web site.
What web address will people
see when I forward my domain?
Our domain forwarding service is framed, which means that when a visitor
enters your newly registered domain in the web browser, your existing
web site appears on the screen. However, instead of the existing web site's
domain (such as www.DomainPurpose.com/~userid/index.htm) appearing in
the address field, the newly registered domain is displayed.
As a business, how can I
use domain forwarding to increase sales?
With domain forwarding, you can point all your domain names for a variety
of product lines to your main web site. For example, the owner of a business
called bikes.com might have other domain names that reflect product lines
such as bananabike.com, kidsbike.com, and speedbikes.com. Domain forwarding
ensures that all visitors to these product domain names are automatically
redirected to bikes.com. You can modify the destination domain at any
time.
Can I use my new domain name
to receive e-mail?
Yes, by using our free e-mail forwarding service, this allows you to create
an e-mail address that matches your newly registered domain name. Messages
sent to your new e-mail address are automatically forwarded to your existing
e-mail address. If your new e-mail address is president@newdomain.com,
you could have your e-mail directed to dianne@exisitingISP.com.
Can I use these services
if my domain is not registered with DomainPurpose.com?
No. You need to be a DomainPurpose.com customer; however, you may transfer
your domain to us and use these services.
How do I retrieve a lost/forgotten
password?
Submit
your domain name, and we'll e-mail your password to all the contacts
listed for your domain.
I have a business card
web page, but I require more features. How do I upgrade?
If you require a hosting account with advanced features such as, POP e-mail
accounts, e-commerce or media streaming, you will need to sign up to a
web hosting account. Choose a package that works best for you or your
business.
How do I check the status
of my domain name registration?
Go to your account manager through the client login by entering your domain
name and password to find out the status of your account.
My domain name is not registered
after several days. What should I do?
First, access your account by going to the client
login, Enter your domain name and password. Once you login, it will
display your current registration status. If your domain name is not registered
within three business days, e-mail us at support@domainpeople.com
and request a domain name registration status report. Please include your
domain name and the date of payment.
What should I do if I do
not receive a confirmation e-mail?

How do I change my contact
information?

login, enter your domain name and password, and change your contact
information.
