A Domain & Blog... Now What? Part 1

So, you took the plunge. You bought a domain (hopefully from Jungle Webs). But, you are not ready to commit to hosting yet... and you have a blog on a public server (like Blogger or Wordpress, etc...). Now what do you do?

THE EASY-LAZY WAY
"Forward" your domain.

What does this mean? Well, when you forward your domain to "point" to your blog, folks typing in http://yourdomain.com will magically arrive at your blog. This way you still have a nifty DOT COM and still keep the traffic you have built on your free public server.

Easy Steps To Forward Your Domain. (assuming you bought it at Jungle Webs) BTW... clicking the pictures will make them full size.

1. Sign in to your Jungle Webs account.

2. Look under DOMAINS and click "Manage Domains" or "Manage Domain Forwarding".

3. This will bring you to the Domain Control Center where you will...
a. Check-mark your domain name.
b. Click "forward".

4. That will bring you to this page where you will...
c. Click "enable".
d. Type in your blog address in the blog (e.g.) http://yourblog.blogspot.com
e. Click "OK" and in about 15 - 30 minutes your domain address should point to your blog.


That's it! Tah Dah!
