Yes Mike, apparently that's a holding site 'till you go live. It happened to me too.. thought I'd done something wrong, but I was on line not long after. It won' t be long and you'll be up and running.

If you just registered the domain name it will take upto 72 hours to set it up, so hang in there and keep checking sometimes it goes quick.

*ahem*

If you ordered a hosting account or a domain name and the transaction was processed (paid) after 2:00 PM Friday EST, it will not post to the bank until Monday morning, which reflects a delay in creating an account at VodaHost as well as domain Registration in compliance with ICANN.

Bottom line, if you buy something over the weekend, don't count on things being processed until the next regular Business day at the earliest (and up to 72 hours after processing is initiated. For foreign domain extensions, allow up to 5 days).

Now....when it comes to seeing your newly purchased domain name on a "Parking Page" one of the first things you need to verify is that the domain has been properly registered in your name (use a WHOIS tool of your choice). Then you will need to reset the DNS at wherever the domain was Registered in that provided Control panel.
* Seeing a Parking page at least tells you the domain is off the market, even though it may still be in process of being registered (to you most likely).

thanks everyone most helpfull
