    Domain hosting

    If I have 2 domain names (Myco and "Plan B) can I get my ISP to host both domains? Anything stopping me?

    Possibly - ask your ISP

      i'm not sure i understand the problem. i'd have thought they'd be delighted?

      edit: or is this a free service your isp provides? ie they're not a dedicated hosting service?

        Current ISP provides this as a free service.

        Would it be better to enlist the services of a hosting service for the domain? How does this impact emails using the domain name?

        I will give my ISP a call again tomorrow. I tried today but kept haning on the line for ages..........!

          Got through to them today. Apparently they used to offer the ability to host a 2nd domain but they now don't!

          I will just have to host the 2nd domain with someone else. I am hoping that whoever I get it from can host it too.

            If your sites are with your ISP and your domains are elsewhere, then speak to your ISP about DNS settings. You may be able to point your domains at your sites without moving them.

            You should still be able to get your email from your domain provider.
