Publish Date: Tuesday, September 4, 2007
A new feature, which enables you to quickly sign up for a new hosting account when the current one has insufficient resources or a new project is about to be started, has just been made available in the Control panel. There's more - a new interface, which has the features of a Shopping Cart, has been developed for the signup process so that the customers can manage the items that are being ordered without losing sight of them.
Please click on the Setup New Account link in the web hosting control panel and take a brief tour through the signup process's steps using the new interface.

Step 1: Select a hosting plan
You will become familiar with the hosting plans that are currently being offered in the first step of the wizard. In order to see the features of the plans and compare the ones that are available for purchase, select the Compare plans tab. In order to proceed to the next step, click on the Order button corresponding to the plan that suits your needs best. You can use the Change plan link in the Cart table to switch to another hosting plan at any time during the signup process.

Step 2: Select domain
This is where you must choose the domain name that you want to host in the new hosting account. You can register a domain name, or transfer an existing one, registered with another registrar. You have an option to host your existing domain name without transferring it. Once you've entered a domain name for registration / transfer and clicked on the Add domain for hosting button, you must add the domain that you've chosen in the results' list to the cart. You can use the Change domain link to change the domain name whenever you want.

Step 3: Account info
This is the place where you must submit the information needed to create the new hosting account. It is very important that you enter the username of the new Hosting account and make sure that the contact e-mail address is correct since the new account information will be sent there. This information will appear in the WHOIS of the domain that is ordered for registration or transfer as well.
