Answers To Some Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


How can I get my own site on the internet
Getting a site up and running on the internet is a three step process,

How will others know about my site
Finding a page on the internet is exactly like looking for a service in your local yellow pages. There are several services on the internet that provide index of web pages. A user looking for a particular type of services simply asks the index service to give it a list of pages that match his search criteria (same as flipping to pizza pages in yellow page when looking for pizza delivery). Here is a sampling of a few major indexing services, go ahead and try them out by clicking on any of them,
How will I get my web site listed in on-line index services

How do I get my own address on the internet
Internet addresses, also called domains, are registered, and maintained by a central body called InterNIC. If you wish to get an internet address of the form http://www.companyname.com, xmedia can register your address with InterNIC for no charge.
Is there a cost for maintaining my internet address
Yes, InterNIC charges $50/year for maintaining your domain registration. Once your domain is registered with InterNIC, you will get an invoice directly from InterNIC for $100.00, this fee will cover your domain name registration for the first two years, thereafter you will be billed at the rate of $50/year.
