| | Okay I am stupid here, I am about to buy a domain name for my site. Can I still be able to have it hosted here at trap17 and use the new dot com? or would I need to move it and spend more money? I really do love the free hosting here and would hate to have to leave and be charged a monthly fee. also, if I am able to use it here are there any transfer fees that I need to know of.
I have looked around the forum, maybe I missed it but really did not see anything about this
Thanks

Thanks No you are not stupid, how can you say that? Wow. Just because you don't know something doesn't mean you are stupid! I will clear some things for you if you want. First of all, when you buy a domain for $9.99 you paid it for a year in advance and you OWN that domain and you can use it for your Trap17.com hosted site or any other hosting site. The site will most certainly give you the name of their Name Servers which you'll need to enter in the empty fields in your domain managment page where you enter them and wait for the DNS propagation and then add the domain to your site using their cPanel (this is technical, I don't want to go into details since your question was about something else). If you want the domain to be used for your Trap17 hosted site, after you buy the domain you don't have to enter anything in the fields and they will automagically point to ComputingHost's nameservers and do the same thing as above. So, all in all, you aren't charged monthly, after you pay for the domain, it's like you paid with your own money and you own the domain for one year. It's yours. You don't lose it. Hope this clears some things up, if not, please write back and I will try to answer.

Hi - This is the first time that I'm trying to register a (free) domain name (at co.cc) and

Does 30 Credits = Enough Mycents To Get Free Hosting On Xisto?
- (5)
Hi - I joined trap17 and made some posts, and my credits were over 30, so I decided to sign up for
a Package 2 hosting plan. Then I filled out the form for the Free Hosting Application request, and
then I followed the instructions in the reply that later appeared underneath, telling me to sign up
at xisto using the same email I used at trap17, using the Logic Plan (which costs 1.99 USD a month).
Very quickly I received 1.00 USD in credits to my xisto billing. My question is: Under the old

being in the hosted group at all, it's just when the credit system is finally ready to be sent

Problem With The Trap17 Forum

is running on the forums here, and I'm sure that someone smarter than me can isolate the source
of the problem. What I have noticed firstly is that the link that is generated in the top right
corner of a post within a thread, the link to that particular post (I'll call that the linkback
link), sometimes links to the post itself, but often just links to the thread. T...

When Trap17 Will Host Non-english Sites?

QUOTE All websites must be in English to qualify for free hosting. We do this to ensure that
Accounts are legal and have permissable contents. I totally agree with the need to ensure that
accounts are legal and have permissable contentes, but I believe there's a big portion of forum
members who speak English as their second language, including myself, and so, I assume some time
they may need free hosting in their native language. So, why can't Trap17 host sites in those
non-English languages which have a large community in the forums? I'm sure that t...
