Bob, Most hosting services require you to bring a domain to the table and then set you up under that. For example, you have "mydomain.com" and your login becomes mydomaincom. The hosting service defaults to hosting that domain.
On-Rev asks you for a "Desired Username/Subdomain" which is explained (at the bottom) of the order page as follows: "When ordering enter the single word subdomain (max 25 characters) that you would like for your subdomain name. This will resolve as [subdomain].on-rev.com and you will have email addresses of [na...@[subdomain].on-rev.com. This will be used as one of the basic ways we identify your account. Of course you'll be able to add additional domains once your account is set up." In other words, if you select "bill" as your subdomain, you will automatically have bill[at]bill.on-rev.com as an email, and http://bill.on-rev.com as your web site Without needing to purchase/register a true standalone domain. Yes, you certainly CAN bring your own domains over, as many of them as you want, and host them with on-Rev. It's simply not required. Static IP addresses are a completely separate issue from domain names, and can be purchased as an add-on for people who require them. Most people don't need them.

I know I can't just pick a random one. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
