• Every domain name is given a series of numbers known as an IP address — for example, the IP address for www.coolexample.com is 68.178.232.100. It’s this number that your browser uses to locate a particular website.
• When you type a domain name into your browser, the DNS (Domain Name Server) looks through a huge database to find the IP address you requested and then directs your browser to the correct website content.

Due to differences in Grid Hosting, it cannot offer support for some of the technologies that Shared Hosting can:

• Access databases are not supported due to Access’ locking scheme which prevents concurrent usage from different processes.
• Front Page Server Extensions are not currently supported.
• Java and ColdFusion are not currently supported.
• Concurrent file writes to the same file in multiple sessions or concurrent threads. Example of affected resources: File-based databases and cross session log files (these issues are exaggerated in a Grid Hosting environment due to additional volume).
• Storing data within the Application namespace and depending on multiple concurrent sessions accessing accurate data for the entire application.
• Static Classes where sessions across the site (application) must have concurrent access to accurate data.

Upgrading to Grid-Based Hosting from Shared Hosting

If you currently use a Shared hosting account, you can migrate it to a Grid-based hosting account, which offers improved performance. For more information, see Web Hosting Powered by the Grid Frequently Asked Questions.

NOTE: When migrating to a Grid-based hosting account, you cannot switch your hosting account’s operating system. However, after the account migrates, you can switch it.

To Upgrade to Grid-Based Hosting

1. Log in to your Account Manager.
2. From the Products section, click Web Hosting.
3. Click the domain name you want to use.
4. Go to the Edit Account Details tab.
5. From the Plan menu, select the new plan you want to use. Grid-based hosting accounts are labeled “[Plan type] [Operating system] Web” — for example,Deluxe Linux Web.
6. Click Save Changes.
7. Complete any necessary purchases.

What does it mean?

• Increased performance and redundancy: Grid technology uses a cluster of servers instead of a single server to host websites, resulting in more available resources to accommodate traffic and processing loads. Moreover, multiple servers mean redundancy – if a server goes down, the other servers are still available to serve a website.
• Pricing is unchanged: You can continue to order the same pricing structure, with no hidden fees, but powered by technology similar to what is used to deliver the most advanced cloud solutions available today.
• Usability is unchanged: we will continue to offer the Hosting Control Center and Hosting Connection at no additional cost, and the customer interface is the same.
• Features are virtually unchanged: with the exception of Java, ColdFusion, FrontPage, and Access database all the remaining features available on the shared hosting platform are available on Grid.

Customers who require one of these exceptions can still order plans that support them (based on the shared technology). NOTE: Look for a link below the plan options on the Web Hosting landing page – The page looks very similar. Order our cheap domain hosting now!

Setting up your Web site on our secure hosting servers

So you want to host your Web site on our secure servers, but you want to avoid costly mistakes and excessive site downtime. The process of moving your Web site from one hosting provider to another can seem like a daunting task. This guide leads you through the process of transferring your account to our secure servers while minimizing unfavorable downtime.

Essentially, when you host your Web site and its content, you are storing the files and data on a remote computer. The access and management tools pro-vided make it easy for you to move and maintain your files and data. You can successfully transfer your Web site hosting from your existing hosting pro-vider to our secure hosting with minimal interruptions to your site activity.

To help the process run smoothly, you should know who your current host-ing provider is and the company where your domain name is currently regis-tered. In many cases, this is not the same company. To begin the process of transferring your hosting account, purchase a hosting plan that suits your needs and then follow the steps outlined in this guide.

Importing Your Data

Before you can import data into your new hosting account, you must create a new SQL database in that account. Depending on the operating system on your host server, you use a SQL tool to create and manage your database.

Importing Your Database Using SQL Server

Once your new database is set up, you can transfer the data from your existing database. There is a link to the SQL Server tool in the Hosting Manager.

1. Log in to your Account Manager.

2. Under the Hosting & Email section, select Hosting Account List.

3. Next to the hosting account you want to modify, click Open.

4. Under the Databases section of the Hosting Manager, click the SQL Server icon.

15. Click Submit.

TESTING YOUR TRANSFERRED FILES

After you have set up your new hosting account and transferred files, you can easily verify that your Web site looks the way you want it to before you make it live on the Internet. You can test your Web site by adding the IP address and Web site name to your Windows host file.

If you do not have your IP address, you can get it from the Hosting Manager. You need the Server IP Address displayed in the Account Summary area.

To Modify Your Windows Host File

1. Go to c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts and open the host file in Note-pad. Note: hosts is the name of the file you need to modify, not a directory.

2. Add your IP address and Web site name below the last entry. The entry should look like this: 100.55.55.52 www.coolexample.com. Add each entry on an individual line with the IP address preceding the site name.

3. Save and close the host file.

Verifying the Transfer of Your Web Site Files

Once you have transferred your files and updated your host file, you can verify that your Web site works.

To view your Web site, open a browser window and type your domain name in the address bar.

You can only view your Web site from the computer where you added your IP address and domain name to the host file. It is not live on the Internet yet.

CHANGING YOUR DOMAIN NAME SERVERS(DNS)

4. In order to complete the transfer of your Web site hosting, you must change your domain name servers(DNS). A domain name server(DNS) is an address assigned by the computer where your Web site files are hosted. The address is associated with your domain name so that your Web site can be viewed on the Internet when someone enters your domain name. The process for setting up your name servers depends on the company where your domain is registered. Check with your domain name Registrar for specific instructions on how to change your name servers The nameservers for your hosting account depend on the day you set up your hosting. Use this list to determine your default nameservers:

After January 31, 2007

ns5.secureserver.net, ns6.secureserver.net

November 15, 2006 ‐ January 30, 2007

ns1.secureserver.net, ns2.secureserver.net

December 15, 2005 ‐ November 14, 2006

ns3.secureserver.net, ns4.secureserver.net

Before December 14, 2005

ns1.secureserver.net, ns2.secureserver.net

OR

wsc1.jomax.net, wsc2.jomax.net

These name servers will point your domain name to your new hosting account.

There may be some downtime before your Web site is avail-able on the Internet. This period is called the propagation period and can take up to 48 hours.

Once you have verified that your Web site works, you can cancel your account with your existing(previous) hosting provider.
