Please go through following documentation before using services of UnderHost.

We assume that you have purchased a hosting plan and received our welcome email with your account logins and DNS information.

Once you go through following steps you can easily setup your site with UnderHost.

STEP 1: POINT YOUR DOMAIN DNS TO OUR SERVERS ( Change Nameservers )

Before pointing your domain DNS to our servers, You need to collect Primary Name server and Secondary Name server address provided in your hosting plan welcome email ( Transfer Domain Section )

Then Select below desired option to update domain DNS.

OPTION 1 : DOMAINS REGISTERED WITH UnderHost

If you registered your domain with UnderHost and purchased a hosting plan your nameservers have already been set.


Note: You need to wait 24-48 hrs for your domain DNS info propagation.

OPTION 2 : DOMAINS NOT REGISTERED WITH UnderHost BUT HOSTING WITH UnderHost.

You need to update your domain DNS at your registrar site. Please contact your domain registrar and give DNS information provided in your welcome email so that your registrar can update DNS on your domain.

STEP 3 : UPLOADING FILES TO YOUR WEBSITE


To publish your website (upload the files from your local computer)
to your account/server, you need to use some sort of uploading software.
There are many options available. Here are a few options:

A ) FTP Software (WS_FTP, CuteFTP, FlashFXP )

You can download and install on your computer from following links

-- FTP SERVER NAME : ftp.yoursite.com or Server IP ( located in the welcome email )
-- USERNAME : Your control panel username
-- PASSWORD : Your password
-- UPLOAD DIRECTORY : public_html

Your home page must be placed in the "public_html" directory and must be named
"index.htm" or index.html. This is the file
that the server looks for when someone types your URL:
http://www.yoursite.com in their Web browser.


B) Microsoft FrontPage (http://www.microsoft.com/frontpage/default.htm)

-- FRONTPAGE SITE : http://www.yoursite.com (See Notes Below)
-- FRONTPAGE USERNAME : Your control panel user name
-- PASSWORD : Password

*Note: FrontPage will not work until your domain DNS propagated to our
server. It may take 24- 48 hrs for full DNS propagation after you update
your DNS.

C) Cpanel File Manager

You can also upload files using cpanel File Manager.

2) Click on File Manager Icon
3) You can see list of files and folders.
