SETTING
UP YOUR ACCOUNT
How to create an account.:
You can order your account by clicking on the "I'm ready to
join!" link on the ForwardingWeb Home
Page. If you want more information about these accounts, we
recommend you visit our Features
Page, which also has a link to the signup form.
The signup form will ask you to choose an account name under one of our domain
names, or you can use your own domain
name.
The signup process for domains is no different than for subdomains, however you must be able to point your domain at our IP
Address: 184.154.185.4
There are 3 ways you can do this:
Domains registered at our Network.
If you are a Network domain
customer, you have free use of our nameservers to point your domain at our IP
address. Click
here to set up your domain for Forwarding. -
Domains registered at
another Domain Registry.
Most Domain Registries allow you to use their nameservers to point your domain at
an IP address free of charge. After you sign up here, you will need to
contact your Domain Registry and change the Address Record (they may call it
the A-record or DNS-A) to our IP address (184.154.185.4). This will point
your domain at your ForwardingWeb account.
-
Order Ad-Free
Forwarding.
If you are not a Network domain customer and your registry doesn't allow you to point your domain at an IP
address, you can set up your domain on our nameservers with Ad-Free Forwarding. Click
here to order.
On the domain page it asks for the member's
domain. This can be
entered with or without the "www." and can have any country extension. (ForwardingWeb is not
limited to just .com, .net, and .org; we can handle .com.au, .co.nz, .co.uk,
.cc, .ca,
.us, or any other country specific domain).
After you choose the type of account,
you will be able to enter your forwarding setting, including your
"Destination URL". This is the web address where you want your
visitors redirected. Also, please make sure you
enter a valid email
address because instructions will be mailed to you at this address.
Once you have completed your application, you should be taken to a confirmation page
that will ask you to enter the Confirmation Code sent to you by email. You will
then be able to log into
your account immediately. If you see any error messages, click your
browser's back button and correct your entered information, then complete your
account setup as before.
