Help with godaddy domain and hosting

HI,

So iv recently moved my hosting to godaddy. The domains are from godaddy, and i have the plan for unlimited websites, and i have one website live. Now, i want my portfolio link to be there too. I did all the steps, i google it and all, it just doesnt work. It says its there, its shows me files, but it just doenst work. Mind blowing.

Support should be open tomorrow :)

Ask them where the nameservers for your domain are pointing to or what can be done to make sure your web pages are showing. :-)

Hi Konrad,

How long has it been since you set up your hosting?

It can take anything from 2 to 48 hours to "propogate", so that the server will display all your web pages. Check back with Godaddy but if they've set you up properly it shouldn't be too long before you're good to go. :)

The hosting itself is like a month online.Actually, exactly a month today. `i have one webiste up and running, which when i go to the hosting, and then put hosting, i see there the domain i set a month ago, which i can manage it.

Now, Im sure that there are informations about it, i even have a table, but i dont have a CPanel, is this normal? i have CPanel for the other website, not for this one.

If you're transferred all your domains there then it's probably just sorting itself out but if you still can't get into cPanel after a while I'd still contact GoDaddy :)

I have all my information transfered, and i did contacted them, and told me they hosting support is offline on the weekends... apart if i call them.. but thats not any good to call them, i rather write and show them, plus it would be easier from my part.

The domain should be automatically connected right? I do not have to change the DNS, because where int the first place no.

Or do i have to do something here?
