Sorry if this has been asked before, I've been searching these threads over the last month for this answer.
I've converted my trial to the value plan today. I already own my domain name and it's currently hosted with another company. I have online access at the domain registration and know that I need to sign on and change the name server to point to Jodohosts name servers.
I think I will also want to delete my 3rd level domain name that I setup to use for my test since I would want to use my own domain name, is that correct?
What's the best way to do a smooth transition knowing that it will take 24 hours or whatever before the new name servers are pointing my domain to jodo (I think I said that right)?
My site contains a message board that is constantly updated. Should I make a final copy from my old site to the new jodo site and then do a redirect to my 3rd level domain name (until my original domain get's propogated) and not allow changes on the old site?
Or do I use the domain alias feature to accomplish this?
I've never transfered hosts before and am a little confused about what would be the least disruptive transfer process. Any help would be appreciated.
