I already own a domain, can I transfer it to a hosting account with GenuineASP.com?

ns1.genuineasp.com 69.41.248.250
ns2.genuineasp.com 69.41.248.251

What is an addon domain?
An addon domain is simply a way to describe a domain for which content is pulled from a subfolder instead of from the main site's own content. For instance, a photographer might have a domain camera.com and wish to set up another domain on their account called photos.com, but have photos.com show different content than the master domain. In that case, photos.com would be set up as an addon domain, pointing to the folder /photos under the main site. Visitors to photos.com would only see that URL in the address bar of their browser when visiting the site - no references would be shown from the main site camera.com, and photos.com would be treated as a completely separate site.

What is an alias domain?
Alias domains will be pointing to the same webpages as your master domain is pointing to. For instance, masterdomain.com/index.htm and aliasdomain.com/index.htm is pointing to the same webpage "index.htm".

Which domain extensions can I register with my GenuineASP account?

Yes, you can upgrade to any of our packages simply by submitting a ticket to http://support.genuineasp.com, with your account username and the package you wish to upgrade to. You only pay the difference in package prices to upgrade.

You will receive an email from us asking you to either upgrade your account or purchase more bandwidth. You will have 5 days to respond to the email or your site may be terminated until the next calendar month when bandwidth totals are reset.
