My website is not live, how do I make it go live? I bought the domain and the webspace and everything from Commerce, the IP is Live but not the domain name.

Thanks in advanced

Have you changed the DNS entries of your Domain Name to your IP address?

Yeah, who ever you bought the domain name from, you need to change the "name servers" to the ones that sent you in the welcome email. It takes 24-48 hours to propogate.

Amanda,

How long ago was this? We just migrated from another host provider and it took our site 8 days to fully progagate to the new servers. Changing the DNS name server is going to be the most important and the most time consuming change to take place.

If you have already done that, then you just need to allow time for the changes to take place web-wide. That was our problem, we got impatient and things ended up working themselves out in the long run.

Hope that this helps at least a little bit.

Hi Amanda-

The purchase of the domain name is not automated. A sales rep will be purchasing the domain for you today and you should see your domain live after propagation. We'll take care of this promptly for you. Thanks!
