I am new with hosting. I have a blog setup up already. Its been months and don't have as such any problem.
But suddenly I realized while buying the hosting plan, I was offered a free domain for life. I didn't register that time because I already had two domains and wasn't getting any good idea about what domain to buy.
Now I just need to know how can I avail my free domain?
And also I want to transfer(just change the nameserver not transfer completely) my other domain(which I own in my namecheap account) to Lunarpages and want to start a website with it. Can you please enlist how to do so?From transferring to setting up my website.
Also suggest me good discussion board I need to use.
Are CMS good or just go with manual setup of all the features I need.

I know there are lots of questions please answer them.

Thank you.

For the domains, please open a ticket with support@lunarpages.com. There is no one here on the forums who can help with that since these forums are not for official support. You can still use the free domain option for 12-24 month plans.

To point domains you own here, you will need to change the nameservers at your current registrar to point to ours for your server. Support can tell you what the nameservers are since we have several different sets of them.

For CMS, Joomla is quite popular. Depending on what you want to do with your site, a blog script like Wordpress may be simpler and get the job done.

There is no time limit (that I know of) to taking advantage of the free domain. You can always use it later, either as a new add-on domain, or by transferring one of your owned domains from the present registrar to LP (actually Tucows is the registrar) for a one-time fee ($9.50 or something like that). Email to support@lunarpages.com for specifics on doing either method.
