hi, hope i'm in the correct area?
I bought a .XXX the other week, followed all the instructions but the domain didn't resolve? it delegated so i could get to the control panel but i couldn't gt to the index.html file.
so i phoned my host, (for this one crazydomains but i generally use hostgator and LOVE hostgators service ) welllllllll , as alwasy with crazy they have terrible service and it has taken me 3 WEEKS and 6 phone calls to finally get the website to resolve!
so here's what i did.
first, buy the domain, get it hosted, you will get an email from ICM and follow their instructions, then you will have an account with them that has a longgggggggg "member id" eg GHGTT8UJNHNB987HGF123 (fake of course)
then you phone your host and give them that id code......... now heres where i spent 3 weeks, these people telling me that it wasn't their task to do but IT IS. So if you get them saying otherwise then ask for someone else as the host has to enter your ID.
once i got the right person my domain was online within 30minutes
i hope that helps someone?
