Good news all round then :D

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

yup :D :D :D

Just as a heads up, we have taken a hosting package with another company to be able to bring you

http://www.i-websolutions.info/

This monitors our server every 60 seconds. If any of our servers arent responding, this page will be able to tell you if its your connection or our server. (apparently :pp :angel: )

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

I've just had a look at that - that will be very useful, although we shouldn't need to use it much ;)

I'd also like to say thanks to I-Web for the enhancement of the Cable Forum package, the extra mysql databases, especially. I had mentioned previously on the I-Web forum, that I was thinking of getting another one & KP personally advised me to wait as they had 'something in the pipeline' - having 5 available is more than I could of hoped for. Well done you guys :tu: :)

You guys arnt gonna go bust or anything are you?

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Stupid question coming....

I have 3 domains (lemarsh.co.uk, nhafc.co.uk & harehill.co.uk) all registered with another provider (firevision).

harehill currently points to my NTL webspace, lemarsh does not have webspace, only email (which firevision points to NTL (& O2 as backup)), and NHAFC is currently being designed, and was expected to be pointing to Blueyonder.

Do I need to transfer all 3 over to I-Web (and if so what is the costs on renewals). Also, can I have a sort of sub-domain (i.e. harehill at I-Web, and NHAFC poining to a sub-directory of harehill (form firevision), which would maintain the NHAFC look at the top.

Thanks for any help

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Whats it cost for I-Web to arrange the domain name for packages 1-2 ?

And is the live support often offline like now?

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

You nicked my next question !

:D

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

You have domains called "lemarsh.co.uk, nhafc.co.uk & harehill.co.uk" too?

I didnt think that was possible :D :D :D

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

:D :D :D

No, but I do have three too.......

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

yeah..... :erm:

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Hi, You need to choose a package that has at least 2 addon domains, then all you need to do is login to your domain regtistrar, and point the domains to i-web's name servers,

ns1.i-webserver.co.uk
&
ns2.i-webserver.co.uk

The only charges you will incur for your domain names is from your registrar. Normally they wont charge you to change the nameservers. If you have any problems, we can transfer you to our registrar account.

With the addon domains, it means that you will have a directory inside your main hosting package that will serve the files for your addon domain. But it is completely masked, and therefore would appear like this

http://youraddondomain.com/forum/index.php

not http://youraddondomain.yourmaindomai...orum/index.php

Therefore it will make it look like a completely seperate account ;)

Transfers are charged at the same rate as domain registration, as you are also purchasing 1 years renewal at the same time.

HTH

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

The domain name charges are details in the signup process, if you choose to register a domain with us, the prices will be displayed for you.

The live support feature is a new function (as im sure everyone will tell you) that were working on. This should be fully operational in the next 7 days.

KP

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

I tried the sign up pages & it does not give the domain charges until after I have put all my details in?

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

When you click the select button your taken to a screen where you choose your package, at the very top you have a domain option..... where you can transfer your domain (just ammend your nameserver records with your current registrar) or you can select the option that says
I want I-Web Solutions to register my domain, this is a new domain.

When you click continue you get a new page that allows you to type in your domain name with a drop down box, if you open the drop down box it displays all of the domains that we can register for you and there pricing. Bear in mind that all of the .uk domains are for 2 years, not 1 :)

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Incog?

INCOG...

Theres someone here who needs a "Blind git award" !!! lol

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

;) :p

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Sorry KP to sound dim, but I am pretty new to the hosting lark etc....

I have 3 domains with 1&1 (no hosting), under two account numbers (2 orders at different times).

So, if I request a move, do I use the main one when setting up, then transfer over the other two afterwards ?

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Yes you use a "main one" and then add the other 2 after,

However from experience with 1&1 you wont have any control over the domain names.......

Are they .uk domains or standard .com/.net etc?

let me know :)

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Two are .me.uk
One is .biz

Is there a charge to transfer ??

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Oh, and both are domain name only - pointing to my Pipex webspace............

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

OK i would recommend you setup an account with ukreg.com

your .uk will be free to transfer to them, but i think there .biz prices are high (cant honestly remember)

You will need to send 1&1 a signed fax tho before your able to move your .uk domains as you will need them to change the TAG on it...

Last time i used 1&1 they didnt offer the ability to change the name server settings for your domains. This may have changed and you may not need to move them at all.... but like i said, last time i used them this wasnt the case.

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

OK peeps, the offer ends in 32 hours (and 20 mins) ;)

Just a reminder to those of you that have contacted me, and were umming and arrring :)

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

FWIW I would add my personal reccommendation to jump if you are hovering - having finally got my old hosting to forward the domain I am now having a play, and the range of features on I-web is awesome.

Whether I can utilise these to create something useful remains to be seen, lol, but certainly the product is there for those with a remote idea of what they are doing!

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Interesting to get a comment from someone who has had experience of other hosts. I-Web are the only one I have tried & I have been more than pleased with the service provided. :)

- and I have to agree that the control panel options, especially the 'fantastico' script auto-installer, are brilliant. For a n00b like me the option to install all kinds of public domain stuff, like forums, content management portals, blogs, etc, with just a couple of clicks is very handy. :tu:

- I also have to say that the I-web team have been exceptionally friendly, efficient & communicative. So if anyone is thinking of 'dipping a toe in the water' to see what it is like to have a 'proper' hosted domain, rather than the html webspace offered by NTL etc, I would add my endorsement of I-Web Solutions, to Nikko's.

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

I think I will get one just to play with and build a few test systems. :)

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

I agree :) I-web's stuff is very cool.. and I'm not being paid to say that! :)

I also am in the same position as Nikko here because, with an upgraded package, it means I have even MORE toys to play with.. I keep installing things with fantastico, fiddling with them, and then uninstalling them, lol!

perhaps there should be a section on this forum for i-web customers to talk about their new toys and make everyone else jealous ;)

is there like a standard banner ad that i-web have? my website may not be the busiest in the world, but i don't mind adding it to my 'links' page to spread the word, even to a few people :)

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Thanks for the kind words guys.... and welcome to the mad house pem ;)

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

You dont have to be mad but it helps ;) ;)

Just have to echo Adam's response and say that this promo has been a huge success It is the comments by you the people that use our services that spur us on to improve the service even further and thankfully since we moved server to a new DC the problems we were having are few and far between.

Perhaps in the future we will be running more promo's :) :)

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Cheers. :D

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

I, sure youll enjoy it :erm:

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

OK - so I've done it (with minutes to spare!).

Sorry, but another question.

Firevision ask the following questions...
New Name Servers (presume they are ns1.i-webserver.co.uk & 2).
Also, ask the IPS TAg. Any suggestions (am I transferring this?).

How does email get transferred?

So many questions for midnight!
thanks

lemarsh (harehill.co.uk)

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

I think they would prefer you to ask them those kind of questions in their forum

http://forum.i-websolutions.co.uk/

or by submitting a support ticket.:)

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Your not changing registrar just host :)

So the only thing that needs changing are the nameserver settings, and yes ns1 &ns2 :)

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Thanks :tu:

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Oh.... just to clarify the offer ends tonight at midnight.... not yesterday midnight ;)

KP

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Just over 4 hours to go ;)

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

OK - time to think, quickly... :disturbd:

Do I, don't I?

Shall I?
Shall I wait? :juggle:

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Just do it! ;) :D

You won't regret going with I-Web :)

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

I'm already with them on the old NTHW Package 5 for my personal site.
Now though, I'm considering buying a package I can put a domain or two onto to use as general purpose business-related hosting.
Even without the 20% discount - 99p a month is still cheap!

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

If memory serves me right, your NTHW5 has been upgraded to CF5 (including all of its features, such as the addon domains ;))

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

You're absolutely right!
Superb. :D

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Go for it Rich - I took one with the discount just to play with - £9 a year for a test site is pretty damn cheap :)

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

I think Richard M is already happy :pp

- but, that's how I saw it too, I knew nothing about domain hosting before I signed up - and I still don't, 'cos I don't have to. I-Web sort it all out with cPanel & fantastico.:)

:notopic: I am trying out PHPWebsite atm.....

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

30 mins to go... :P

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Awww shucks!

I missed it.

Oh never mind, heck its cheap anough without a discount... :D

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

I have signed up too now, albiet without the extra 20% discount, given that I'm paying 99p a month I think its excellent.

It took mere minutes instead of the couple of hours & not working with EUKhost last night.

I just have to wait for things to propogate through the system & I should be able to access my site, then have a play with my own www pages etc.
Wheeeeeeeee!

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Welcome aboard :D

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Just waiting for my cpanel to become active..
want wait...well OK I can, but I'm hopping up & down like I wanna pee in anticipation...lol

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

You should be able to get into the CP via the IP address of the machine you're hosted on.

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Yeah, it will be https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:2083/

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
 

Unfortunately its no go, damn company firewall prevents that..
Ah well, will have to keep hopping about till I get home..lol

Then I can be up, up & away....Now what shall I do on it, shed appreciation society, yet another NTL gossip site ooh the posibilities are endless...he, he.

Re: I-Web Solutions - May Day special
