Review the Guidelines<\/h1>\n

Before you get started, we recommend that you review our information about\u00a0Choosing a Domain Name<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Sign-Up Process<\/h1>\n

Once you’ve reviewed the guidelines, you can proceed to the\u00a0sign-up page.<\/a><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Click the “Get Started” Button
    \n\"\"<\/li>\n
  2. You will be redirected to login for verification. You will use your\u00a0Vassar Spaces username and password to log in.
    \n\"\"<\/li>\n
  3. You are now ready to create a domain. To start, you must first sign up for a\u00a0free subdomain (i.e. yoursite.vassarspaces.net). Directions for purchasing a Top Level Domain (i.e. yourdomain.com) will be provided further down.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    Option 1: Free Subdomain<\/h2>\n

    For no cost, you can create a subdomain of vassarspaces.net.<\/p>\n

    To create a free subdomain of vassarspaces.net, leave this default option selected and enter the subdomain name you want for your website. When you\u2019ve found an available subdomain, click the button labeled “Continue.”<\/p>\n

    \n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    Confirm that you like the name you selected. If you do, click the “signup” button. (If not, click the “start over” button, and repeat the above step.)<\/p>\n

    \"\"You should now see a screen confirming that your subdomain is ready. After a few seconds, you will see the regular cPanel options.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    Option 2: Buy a top-level domain from Reclaim Hosting<\/h2>\n

    It is easy to create your own top-level domain. This allows you to select a URL for your website that is easy to remember and share.<\/p>\n

    While you are at Vassar College, this is available for a nominal cost (currently $15\/year). You can continue to use this domain after leaving Vassar Spaces, although the cost may increase.<\/p>\n

    To register a top-level domain log into your newly created cPanel, navigate to the Domains section, and click Register Top-Level Domain<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    This panel offers a step-by-step guide to registering and adding a new top-level domain to your new cPanel account.<\/p>\n

    Option 3: Connect an existing domain to your cPanel<\/h2>\n

    If you already have an existing domain that you’ve previously registered elsewhere, simply point your domain’s nameservers to ns1.reclaimhosting.com<\/strong> and ns2.reclaimhosting.com<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
