Servers?

Step 1: Sign up with us just as if it was a new
account.

an email from us stating that your account has been
set up and issuing your an account number and information
on accessing your account.
Step 3: Transfer your content and test your
site on our server with your IP number.
Step 4: Then e-mail a domain name transfer request
to the appropriate registrar company, the company that
you initially registered your domain name through. Use
the HIC name servers that are on the signup form when
transferring your domain name.
HIC name servers:
-Primary DNS Server hostname: ns1.hostedincanada.com
-Secondary DNS Server hostname: ns2.hostedincanada.com
Step 5: Once you verify the transfer, the registrar
will point your domain name to our name server, and
the rest of the world will be able to access your new
site on our server with your domain name. Please note:
it sometimes takes up to 24-72 hours for the registrar
changes to take place on all service providers globally.
You may experience people not viewing your new site
for this period.
