[niran 0]

Can anybody explain me the differences between web hosting at Xisto and Xisto?

I'm little bit confused regarding this matter!

Im not asking about the forum guys, Im asking about the hostng plans here!

Is it same or different for both the sites!??

Since you are not asking about the forums, there is no difference. Both services offer the same plans, and the only difference are the forums. Here at Xisto, we deal with a wider range of technical topics, and some people might find it difficult to post.

And one more Question

 

If I request for hosting with a subdomain ( for checking the services here )

can I able to change that sub domain name to my own domain personal domain name!

Nope, the features are the same. What's more, I think Asta has better servers (I seem to recall someone mentioning it).

Yes, you can do that. You can either change your default domain name (subdomain -> domain), which costs credits, or park the new domain name. Either way, you have to set the domain nameservers to ns1.astahost.com and ns2.astahost.com

But the problem is whther Xisto provides the options to change the MX records? / Managed DNS service

Because I need to use Google Hosted as my email service provider!

 

My present server does not provide that option!

But they are giving one IP for the hosting!

 

So (presently) instead of changing the Name servers at my domain registrar,

I had changed only Address (A) Records to poing to the hosting server,

so that I can use Google hosted for my mails by editing MX records at domain registrar!

I thought about subscribing to Xisto when I saw they had the same plans, but I found the community a little immature, and decided not to go ahead with it, even being easier to keep hosting credits. Xisto did fit more my forum needs.I just wished we had a bigger graphic artists base here... Let's just say I'd have a bit more to do when hanging around here. ;D

Yes, I think you CAN modify the MX records. I though about doing that when I bought my domain at GoDaddy, but I find it better to park the domain and create a mail account through cPanel.

A side note... I am a bit of an artist - but I hardly find time to do anything much these days. Do you have anything particular in mind with the 'artist base' here that you would want to venture out? I would be glad to help.

Both as brilliant as each other.I tried Xisto, but surprisingly I was more perpelexed about posting at Xisto than here, partly because I ahd about 60 different browsers up, and other posts.I think Xisto sounds more proffessional so I decided to try this out of the two recommended by my friend, and I ahve amd the right choice, dfinitely, I hope I won't regret saying that !!!Cross fingers.Anyway, I don't need "billions" of features so i don't particularly mind which host.
