  • Oh, I feel so dumb!

    Hi friends,

    I am completely LOST. I want to create a new webpage, (not linked to my others) but I have no idea how to do that. I watched and read the tutorials, but I am not grasping it. How do I know which IP address to use? How do I know what my cp password is? (There is a whole list)
    Do those all belong to me? How do I know which one to choose?

    Thank you in advance. I will probably be asking more questions soon. Thank you all so much for always being there to guide me.

    Thank you again,

    Juliann

    Hi Juliann,

    When you paid for your Vodahost account you should have received an email that would contain answers to the current questions you have with the exception of how to build a new page that is not linked to the others.

      If I understand you correctly, what you want is a new website. This is pretty straightforward to do and begins with you buying a new domain name. Once you have purchased a new domain name you go to your Control Panel and add it as an add-on domain, point the DNS, wait for propogation and then your good to go just like you did with your first site. You would publish to public_html/name_of_new_domain but using the same CP username/password and IP address as you have already. It would look like www.mynewdomain.com

      Alternatively you can create a sub-domain. This would look like www.mysubdomain.myexistingdomain.com but would be seperate from your original one in all else.

          Re: Oh, I feel so dumb!

          Thank you for all of your help.

          I guess what I don't get is, to create a new webpage, do I need a subdomain or can I do it under my same domain name?
          What is a subdomain and what exactly are they used for?

          Thanks so much,

          Juliann

            If you just want a single page for purposes that are not connected to your main site then you can just create a webpage in the same place as your others but don't link to it from your other pages and vice-versa. It will then operate as a standalone page to those you give the URL to. The URL would carry the id of your main site though as it would be something like www.juilannnewton.com/newwebpage.html so it would be pretty obvious that it was part of a bigger site. If this meets your needs then just build your new page and publish it the same way as you did your others.

            A sub domain is like a folder of your main site and the URL to the index page would look like www.newsubdomain.julieannnewton.com/index.html.

            An add-on domain, whilst still being part of your main account and working similarly in that it's, again, a folder of your main site. The difference is that it operates as a standalone site as you'd buy a new domain name so an index page URL would look like www.newdomainname.com/index.html.

            You can learn more about sub domains and add on domains by entering the terms into the search bar (at the top of the page) and doing a little reading - both topics have been covered many times on this forum.
