Move your website to RWS wth ZERO downtime!

The only requirement is that you do not delete your current web hosting account until your new one with us is setup. Follow the steps below to ensure ZERO downtime and not lose any business off your website.
  

 DO NOT CHANGE YOUR NAMESERVERS JUST YET NOR DELETE YOUR CURRENT WEB HOST!

 Establish a hosting account with us. Create an instant access domain within the control panel. Start uploading your website files to your domain folder through FTP or any other site publishing software (FrontPage, Dreamweaver, HomeSite, etc.)

 Use the instant access url to access your new web site before anything goes live. Verify that everything is working on your new site (graphics, web pages, links, etc...)

 Once verified, go to your registrar and change your name servers to those ns1.reelwebsolutions, and ns2.reelwebsolutions.

 Your site will be updated aroundthe world within 24-72 hours. Note: although you may be able to see your site is on your new server within possibly 12 hours, please allow a complete 72 hour cycle before you delete your old host.

 Enjoy your new site and hosting features at Reel Web Solutions 

If you already bought a domain name and want to host with us:

 First step is you establish a web hosting account with us. Start by ordering any of our Qualtiy web hosting plans.

 After your payment is verfied you will get your setup email within 30 minutes. In it will be all your usernames / passwords that grant you access to the server via your assigned server hostname. Proceed to upload your files to the server via the server s hostname. BE SURE YOU UPLOAD EVERYTHING INTO THE WWWROOT FOLDER and MAKE SURE YOU AN APPROPRIATE DEFAULT DOCUMENT such as index.htm . Then use the temporary link you created to view your site.

 Once you have everything verfied go to the location where you originally registered your domain (your registrar).

 In your setup email(s) there will be a pair of DNS servers also known as Nameservers. Change your domain to use those DNS servers. If you don t have a domain control panel (that is where you usally can do these changes) please email your registrar or call them and tell them to change your name servers to those provided to you in your setup email from us.

 After the DNS changes has been made your domain will now begin to point to your server with Reel Web Solutions. This will take 24-72 hours to resolve around the world as every ISP updates their DNS at different times.

 If after 48 hours you can not access your domain via www.yourdomain.com please do a whois on your domain HERE make sure your name servers show up as those provided in your setup email. If they do not call your registar right away and get it corrected.
