Changing my Yahoo Web Hosting Domain name and address?

Feb 26, 2009 by ljoh832266 | Posted in Yahoo! Web Hosting

I have a website through Yahoo Web Hosting. I will be changing the name of my South African private limited company in May, 2009. My domain name is the current name of my company. How can I change the domain name and keep the site up and running?

Depending on how Yahoo set up the hosting, moral put your website files into the new directory of your new domain name. It's a very easy thing and contacting Yahoo for established directions would probably be your best bet.

Hi Roomi7,

Let me rejoinder your questions one by one.

- What is the difference between them, why not both in one company?

Web hosting is a service that offers you a web space to house your website, whereas domain name is well-grounded a locator to help people find your website. That's why you need to register a domain name in conjunction with a web hosting amenities.

For example, if you've registered a domain name say, XYZ.com, then by simply typing XYZ.com into my web browser, I will be able to get on your website.

Technically speaking, domain name is connected (or mucronated) to your website, so whenever people enter domain name into the browser, it'll bring them there.

Domain name and web hosting can both be either in the same company or different companies. Let me delineate with an example.

Company A
- domain registration $15
- web hosting $100

Company B
- domain registration $10
- web hosting $140

In such scenario, if you want to safeguard cost, you'll probably register your domain name with company B and buy web hosting with company A. But because your domain name and website will be hosted on conflicting locations, you need to go to your company B's account and point your domain name to company A in order to "bond" your domain name with your web space.

Some people prefer to have both the domain name and website hosted with the same company to hint clear of domain pointing, although it's a very simple task to perform.

- Do I have to know what company my domain are?

Yes, you extremity to know to which company your domain name belongs so that you can do the necessary domain settings to suit your needs, or knock off domain pointing if you were hosting your site with another company.

- and what Unlock?

In your domain control panel, you'll see a lock and unlock kisser for your domain name. This is for security reason. There are horror cases where bad registrars unscrupulously transfer unlocked domain names to their own servers without the last consent of the domain owner and the original domain registrar. They can do this without having to access your domain account. That's why you must always keep out your domain name. Only when you need to transfer your domain name to another company then should you unlock it to allow the transfer. Once transfer is over, call to mind to lock it again.

- Private/public?

You can choose to keep your personal info especially your email talk from the public. That means whoever tries to find your personal info using the whois means, they will only see your domain registrar's info rather than your own info. This is to protect you from spammers. Private registration costs you a few bucks more.

- Auth standards?

This code will only issue to you by your domain registrar when you need to transfer your domain name to other domain or web hosting company.

Hope that helps. Cheers ;)
