WARNING
We became aware that some hosting companies are requesting
that our customers transfer their domain name to them. Due to the lack of
understanding about the term "transfer", they make it appear that in order to
use their hosting service, you must transfer your domain name to them not the
DNS name server
only. This can be a costly mistake to you now and in the future, due
to the exorbitant cost you will be charged for domain yearly renewal, and your
future business. By having your domain name with a company that only
registers domain names, you will have the flexibility to change hosting
companies anytime you wish without losing your domain name or your hosting
service. In order to set up hosting for a website, you only need to modify
the name server setting associated with that domain name. You can do that
in minutes at http://www.WebStreetRealty.com without having to transfer
your domain name and with no extra charge
