and replace "yoursite.com" with your domain name.
I have been notified that my account has been set up but my site is still not active.
If you have received a notification e-mail and it's been over 48 hours, it means either that you did not point your domain name to the right DNS servers, or that your ISP's DNS server has not yet been updated. It generally takes 24 hours for domain names to become active. This is just how the Internet works; there is no way we can speed up the process.
I have NOT been notified that my account has been set up and its been over 24 hours.
This could be caused by a provisioning error. If you have not received any e-mails from us within a few hours of ordering please contact us.
What DNS should my domain name point to?
Your welcome e-mail will detail which of our DNS servers you should point your URL to.
- NS1.HOSTQT.COM
- NS2.HOSTQT.COM

against my bandwidth limit?
Yes. All FTP and
incoming/outgoing e-mail traffic counts against your total bandwidth.

Yes. We run PHP version 4.4.2 and MySQL version 4.1.21.
How can I edit a MySQL database table without creating an application?
