I want to go with a different web host and have canceled my website through vistaprint. It says it is pending cancellation for another two weeks, so I can’t register my name with my new site until it expires. (I assume it will be available then?) If I go ahead and register my site as xxxxx.net instead of xxxxx.com, can I later purchase and add .com as well so they both are directed to my site? Will vistaprint “release” my domain name once my site is officially canceled?
My domain will expire on August 09. My hosting provider has closed the Hosting space.I want to know if i use another hosting provider server should i have to renew the domain now or the existing domain name will be enough? And will i be able to see all the e-mails of my previous servers or the e-mails will be deleted if i maintain the hosting with another server?
this is NOT a tutorial. don’t get confused! i’m just explaining the back end database part. if you want to edit your template send a request and i’ll make a tutorial or show you. when you install joomla through godaddy, it will create a directory or folder in which ever path you chose. all your files will be stored in that directory. joomla also creates a database with multiple tables. this is also where your info gets stored like username and password etc.
No long ago i did a search to be sure that the web-site address i wanted to launch did not already exist. Convinced that it wasn’t existing, I went ahead to commission a web-site designer to register and design the web-site. I got the shock of my life some days ago when the designers told me that the name has been taken by a another person. My investigation revealed this “person” to be a site called “Domaincar” who specializes in using their computers to captures expired or pre-registered sites. Once you do a search, their system has a way of capturing that address (if it doesn’t exist) and register it. I am completely disgusted at this. I have written to them to transfer back to me the domain name, but they are yet to reply. Already i have incurred great cost on publicity for this site and i would love to know HOW DO I GET MY DOMAIN NAME/WEBSITE ADDRESS BACK? All suggestions would be appreciated, because i know i am not the only person affected by this kind of unethical practice.

lets say i own “greenhat.com” and then someone decides to create a business called GreenHat and trade marks it- can they take me to court to get that domain name – or – do they have to buy it from me to get it?
Basically, I dropped the ball and my domain name expired. It appears a Japanese person or company quickly bought it up, because the entire website is in Japanese now.
Of course, I don’t speak Japanese.
I really want this domain back for my personal business. I would be willing to buy it, but I don’t want to spend a fortune. Besides, I think it’s a little sleazy to charge me a lot to buy back my own website.
What could or should I do? And is there any kind of internet laws set up to protect me if this gets ugly?
Through my journalism program we opened an account at ixwebhosting and registered 2 domain names. They expired in december but i can renew the herchenrother.com one for free on the original account.
My goal for the domain to be controlled by Neil Herchenrother on a seperate account than the one we have on ixwebhosting. is it possible to transfer this if i renew it? When googled a company called e3auctions is auctioning it off but i have 75 days before they can truly sell it.
