your welcome. thanks for your interest in surpass.

couple of things...

if you'd like to transfer your domain over to us that's fine as well. heres a link to a page that describes what to do. ( it's not a requirment for hosting though )

Domains: Transferring, custom DNS, etc.

however you dont need that to get up and running you can keep your domain with the current registrar and just edit the DNS information. or your registrar can do it. thats just a tiny section of the domain record that says where the server is that hosts your site lives( think of it like a street address ).

anyway what will happen is after you sign up for hosting you'll get an email with instructions. you will be able to get at your site by the ip address username - even before propagation starts to upload files and such.

in other words a link like http://ipaddress/~username/

hope this helps

i know this seems kinda confusing, but you'll see its pretty simple once the process starts.
