Help need to setup a website. Im fainting.
Hi.
This is my first post here and I feel really bad about asking for help in my first post. Still.
I have registered a domain name shabda.name, from netgeometry.com. I have choosen frihost.com to be my website provider. They provide free webhosting, with php-mysql.
Now how do i set up my domain to point to the webspace that will be provided by them.
Thanks a lot for replying.

Hi shabda, welcome to TWF.
Firstly you need to point your domain name to your hosts server, this is done via the DNS, I havent used netgeometry so am unsure of their procedure but you should be able to login and change the DNS. server name and/or IP which you should of got from your host when you signed up in the welcome email.
Once change you have to wait up to 72 hours max (usually just a couple) for it to register then your domain name should be active.
Happy webbing
