Help, I Need a Website!

domain names Domain Names

Not sure where to start? At i-Point Web Hosting, we make it
easy. Here are some answers about how it all works:

Q: I picked a ".com" name, but how do I know if it's available?
A: Easy. Click here to check for the domain name you want. If it's already taken, select something else, or consider using ".net" or another suffix. Once you have selected a name that is available, make sure to buy it quickly so it isn't bought by someone else. Click here for more on selecting and purchasing your domain name.
Q: Why do I need a hosting plan? Isn't a domain name enough?
A: When you buy a domain name you are essentially buying the right to use that name as your internet address. However, the domain purchase does not include storage space on the internet for your website's files. To store your website's pages on the "net" you will need a hosting plan. This plan will allow you to store your files on a massive shared internet computer, called a server." Check out our great deals on hosting plans.
Q: Ok, so I bought a domain name and a hosting plan. Now what?
A: Most websites are made up of a series of interlinked html files, also called "webpages." Webpages can be created in two basic ways. Some people know html programming and write the code that makes the page. Other people use programs that are more like desktop software and the program "writes" the code as the person designs what they want. Either way, to have a website means that you have pages that are saved as html files and that those files are "uploaded to a server." When you sign up for your hosting plan, you will select a login and password. You can use any FTP program to upload your files to the server using your login and password.
Q: What if I don't know html and don't have any design programs?
A: It's true, html takes time to learn and the programs that write code can be quite pricey (and they require training too!). That's why many people opt to hire a web design team to create their site. Our design team will deliver an attractive, fully functional LIVE website to your hosting server within 2 weeks or less. So you don't have to sweat the details. Check out our All-in-One Website Packages.
Q: I am planning my website, but I have no idea what to write on the site.
A: Sometimes it's hard to think objectively and write about your own work. At i-Point Web Hosting, we understand that. When you order an All-in- One Website Package, we offer to help you with your content prep. Just send us your brochures, resumes, CVs, or any other materials you already have and we’ll make them web-ready in no time! 
Q: I want to accept credit cards on my website. What do I do?
A: Since credit card information is sensitive data, your first most important task is to sign up your domain name for an SSL Certificate. This will ensure that all data that leaves your site is protected from prying eyes on its way to the credit card processor. Next, you will need credit card processing so that the money gets charged to their card and ends up in your bank account. Please ask us about our credit card processing option.
Q: I'm still stuck, what should I do?
A: Please contact us with any and all questions you may have regarding our products and services. We'd be happy to help.
