Changing URL

Tachikoma · February 7th, 2006, 6:58 PM

Just a quick question:

I am changing the URL of my site to avoid any potential nastyness over name ownership, but as my shared hosting was bought with the intention of URL A being it's destination, do I need to notify surpass of anything now I want it to be under URL B?

Would adding the nameserver for URL A into URL B work?

15$ Fee for shared.

Do I have to transfer it, or can I have both URL's pointing to the same share? Ideally I want to be able to have both up at the same time so people know where the site has been moved to.

Get them to switch the domain to the new one, then put that domain (the one you removed) as an addon domain, then they will both go to the same one, when you ready to give up the old domain, just remove it from the addon domains.

But for shared, it cost 15$ for them to change it.
