To set up your domain you will need to refer to the members control panel at https://www.eukhost.com/mb/ and your own web hosting provider.
If he says he sent the log in info, I'm sure he did - otherwise he wouldn't post it on the forum! I'd double check

Yeah, I checked about 5 times, HE did send something, with the ticket's name, but it didn't have any log in info... it said I'd soon receive a status update.

Oh right, your not UK based - I get it now!!
If you opened the ticket from one email address the reply to the ticket would be sent to that same address.
You might have to wait till Mark sees your message to see if he can sort it out for you. Maybe there has been a delay at some point in the email system between yourself and eUKhost - sometimes messages are delayed on the Internet for reasons beyond everyone control.  You never know, you might recieve it soon!

That's prob. this forum it self's best feature, internet veterans helping newcomers. Opposed to maliciously insulting them for being ignorant. -__-
And from what I've heard very good hosting. lol

I agree that the forum is a great feature of eUKhost.
Ands its no problem - we were all new once.
And on your third point - it is definitely good hosting - hopefully you will get to sample just how good one day!

Good luck with that - hopefully it won't take too long and you can enjoy all the benefits of paid hosting for your forum (and the rest of your website hosting if you want to create one)  .

Would be much better than free hosting!! I can tell you that for sure. I tried to use free hosting for years while I was younger and it was no end of problems. The quicker you can make the transistion the better!

Yeah, I did find ONE free hosting that was better than most paid, but it had very long url's, and they killed all the greatness down, so now it's no competition at all. That's why paid seems better, it only gets better from what I've heard.

Yes in many ways. One thing is you get support - and with people like eUKhost it is 24/7 support which is even better. You normally get a lot more features like being able to use SQL Server databases and Fantastico which I have not seen on most if not any free hosting providers. Also the uptime is better and there is no ads. The list is endless.
And especially if you chose eUKhost - they are very reasonably priced for everything that they offer. Unlimited email, databases, scripts, subdomains, parked domains etc and generous amounts of disk space and bandwidth with all accounts.
What more could you want from a host?

That's pretty much all, and more than I wanted. lol
Yeah, eukhost is defiantly a first choice, but it'd be very expensive when having to get good forum software. lol

There are lots of free good forum software available. Such as SMF (simple machines forums) and phpBB both of which can be installed in 3 clicks for free through Fantastico if you get a Linux plan so there is no need spend on forum software until your forum gets a lot larger and is making you some revenue!
Hope that helps

Well, I knew of these. lol ANd how to install them manually. But it's still good. I never knew there was any difference between linux hosting, and windows... So, I'm guessing linux would be better?
Well, Mark came through, and fixed everything! I got the info, but am lost how to set it up... I have no clue how to use it...
