Hi folks im thinking about moving from free to paid as Ive really had it with with inserted text messages as it really ruins my page layout. I can take pop under adverts but the forced change to page layout was the last straw.

1. I assume that I can no longer use my current address http://julianli.t35.com right? or will it still be there when I move to PAID?

2. What solutions do you have for my existing visitors that have bookmarked certain pages of mine (for example, friends who have been emailed the address http://julianli.t35.com/bali.html ). Am I to understand that this would be lost if i move to PAID? if so this is a real barrier for me.

3. if say I buy julianli.com.sg will my new address be http://www.julianli.com.sg or http://julianli.com.sg ??

4. what happens is say I suddenly die or 5 years down the line cannot afford to pay for PAID service, will you transfer my paid site back to http://julianli.t35.com.

5. say if one of my regualer viewers goes to http://julianli.t35.com can you forward them to my new site WITHOUT hitting them with a popup advert?

6. Actually this is the most important question... Can i not just pay you guys 50 bucks a year just to not put popups and insert annoying text messages on my existing free pages (this is ideally what i want as its the least disruption)

Thanks Amelan, Ive now bought the doman name www.Julian.Li from www.switch.ch, Ive given them the dns ns1.t35.net and ns2.t35.net.

Can I ask that you point this domain to julianli.t35.com while I apply for hosting?

Julian, you would have to transfer the files yourself.. but its as easy as downloading and re-uploading. In most cases, members have their files on their computer, so its just uploading at that point.

With paid hosting, you will get awstats which will give you detailed statistical information (including countries).

On a side note, did you purchase the domain yet? I am not sure if you realized, but we only do web hosting and are not a domain name registrar (as it explains in the email and on the site).

Its taking a little longer because our credit card process is having problems accepting your payment... Your credit card address and the ip from which you ordered the account were both different countries. In addition, a few other things aren't matching up. At this point its in their hands and I can't hurry the process...

And now Im in the office network less than 1 hour later (this should be a USA IP), please check and verify IPs for my last 2 posts, they are in singapore and USA, this is physically impossible to travel between these countries so fast, Im in singapore, as is the Credit card I used to pay for the hosting yesterday so there should be no problem accepting my payment.

IP country checks is not a good way to determine validity of a credit card, please start my personal hosting account. I really need this up today.

Julian

Thanks appreciate all the help. keeping my fingers crossed

can you give me the ftp address now, or will I be sent an email of how to load everything up to the new server?

Julian

Thanks Amelan Im surprised at this great customer service 

I get the feeling Ive chosen the right webhost.

Julian

Julian, you should be all set.
