Website basics

Jun 20th, 2008

Hi there. I want to get a personal website going.

I made a google apps account, bought a website name off of enom.com, and got a hosting account at x10hosting.com

But I realised I am totally clueless about DNS settings, host settings, A (Address), CNAME, etc. Everytime I visit my website, I end up at the google apps main page when I want it to end up at my own page.

How do I figure the basics out? Here's what I know so far:

[Host] : [url] : [PUBLIC]

Hi Santa,

•

Everytime I visit my website, I end up at the google apps main page when I want it to end up at my own page.

There's no reason to get into CNAME, A or any other details.

All you have to do is (if you havent already), contact enom.com and ask them to change your nameservers to:
NS1.X10HOSTING.COM NS2.X10HOSTING.COM

Which is your hosting company and it should do the trick.

If this reply solved your problem, please add to my reputation and don't forget to mark this thread as solved.
