Confused: Account Panel - Main Account Domain

[cybrgms]

I see in the x10 account panel, it says you can change your main account domain. Can you really? It even shows you can choose whether or not to use a subdomain (does that mean you could make your own .com website?).

I'm just really confused on this.

I believe so. If you intend to do this, make sure to give it time to go through before you expect to get straight on (sometimes it just takes a day or so to reflect changes).

You could use a .com, but it would have to be registered and have the nameservers point to x10Hostings nameservers.

The nameservers are: ns1.x10hosting.com ; ns2.x10hosting.com

I hope this answers your question.

The x10 account panel can't know if what you tell it is right or wrong. I can type in google.com as my site and it will probably accept it. As xxll_martin_llxx alluded to, you need to get a domain first, then tell it to point to x10. Then, tell x10 to make your site the one you registered with your domain.

I think I've got everything.

1. You cannot have a .com domain unless you register and pay for one with another provider.

2. If my domain is http://mycoolsite.x10hosting.com, I can change it to whatever I want, whenever I want, an infinite number of times for free. I just have a wait a while for it to go through.

Tell me if I'm misunderstanding something.
