    Default domain name help

    I want to register a domain to use with my website and have no idea of how to do it.

    I can see I can buy a .co.uk for about £10 a year but how do I use it ??

    Do I have to upload my site to a different server or can I use to new domain name on my existing website.

    Also how do i use email on my bought domain name ?

    I will just be using a personal website so dont need large bandwidth or anything special just have no idea of what I do / dont need and what I need to do

    or if you want it to forward to your existing webspace and email then you can get it from http://www.123-reg.co.uk for about £7 for two years, which is much less than £50 as you already have your own space. You could buy the £50 package from xdam, but as you already have your own site and just want to forward to that, you might as well onyl spend a few quids on it.

    yeh i was going to mention 123-reg but I wasn't sure if you wanted a proper all in one package.

    I use 123-reg with about 10 Domain names... Good Service and Very Cheap.
