VIDEO TRANSCRIPT
If you are signing up for RAGE Web Hosting for the first time, and you have multiple domains that you want to transfer over, follow these important steps.
First, click on the Sign Up Now button to be taken to the start of the signup process.
Next, select the second option for transferring your domain. Type in your domain, and select your domain’s extension from the drop down menu. Then click the Click to Continue button.
This next page will show you that your domain is available. This is true because you selected to transfer your domain. Had you typed in a non-existent domain, it will tell you that the domain is not available for transfer.
Double check that your domain has been spelled correctly, and then click the Click to Continue button.
Now select your billing cycle, and any add-ons that you want to purchase. Since you are transferring multiple domains, you will need to select the option to Host 3 Additional domains so that you can host more than one domain on your account. If you plan on having more than 3 domains, then you will need to order two hosting accounts.
When you are done, click on the Add to Cart button.
Here is where you will need to enter the EPP or authorization code for your domain. You need this code in order for us to transfer your domain correctly. You can get this code from your account at your current registrar, or you can phone or email them and ask them for it. You will also need to unlock the domain in order for the transfer to be put through.
When you are done, click on the Update Cart button.
You will now see your total with your hosting package, your domain you are transferring, and any add-ons you have included. Now, in order to include those other domains you want to transfer, click on the Home button, and then type in your domain, and select the Transfer button. It should say that your domain is available to transfer. Double check the correct spelling of your domain and then click Add to Cart. You will then need to enter the EPP or Authorization code for this domain.
When you are done, scroll down and click Update Cart. You will notice your other domain has now been added to the order. Let’s do this process one more time. Click on the Home button, and then type in your domain. Then click the Transfer button. Double check your domain’s spelling, and click Add to Cart. Enter your domain’s EPP or Authorization code, and then click on Update Cart. All of your domains will now have been added to your cart, and you can now checkout.
Transferring your domain to RAGE Web Hosting will allow you to manage your domain(s) and hosting under one roof. This video will explain how to transfer a domain, and eventually point the domain to RAGE Web Hosting so that you can have your site hosted with RAGE in just a matter of minutes.
Video Transcript:
When you transfer your website to RAGE Web Hosting, not only will you get a reliable host, but you will also receive an all in one place for your domains, hosting, software, and SEO needs.
If you already have a domain it is very easy to transfer your domain to RAGE Web Hosting. The process will take less than 5 minutes.
The first thing you’ll want to do is e-mail your current domain registrar and tell them to unlock the domain, and send you the EPP or Authorization Code. Most registrars will let you do this on your own, but if you don’t want to do it on your own, you can just send them an e-mail.
In this demonstration, I’m going to show you how to obtain the Authorization Code from your GoDaddy account. The process should be fairly similar with other registrars, but note that some will refer to the code as an EPP code, while others may refer to it as an Authorization Code.
So to do this in GoDaddy, you will first need to open the Domain Manager by clicking on My Products under the My Account tab. Then click on Domain Manager which is located on the left hand side of the window under My Products.
When the Domain Manager opens up, click on the domain that you wish to transfer.
Under the heading Domain Information, there are two things we will need to do. You will see that Authorization Code that I mentioned earlier, with a Send By Email link right beside. Click on the link and have the email sent you.
The next thing is to unlock the domain which will allow us to transfer it. As you can see, this domain is currently locked. To change this, press the Manage button, and uncheck the box to unlock the domain.
Once you have received that code, you can go to the RAGE Web Hosting page, which is located at ragesw.com/webhosting.php or by selecting Hosting in the navigation menu on ragesw.com
The next thing you’ll do is press the Sign Up Now button.
On the first page of the shopping cart, you will need to select the second option which reads “I want to transfer my domain to RAGE Web Hosting.” Then type in your domain.
This is a really important step if you are transferring your domain. If you keep it on the default option which is for registering a new domain name, then you will be told that the domain is already registered, which would be true, because it is currently registered by you.
On the next page, you can choose your Billing Cycle, and any add-ons that you might want.
On the next page, here is where you will enter the EPP or Authorization code that you received from your registrar.
When you are finished with the signup process, you will receive an e-mail within a few hours. Included in this e-mail will be your FTP login details to publish your site, as well as the Nameservers that you will need to update your website.
You will then be able to go back to your registrar and update your nameservers . In the same section where I got the Authorization Code and unlocked the domain, there is a link that says Set Nameservers. You can click on this link and update the information to include the Nameservers that you recieved in your e-mail from RAGE Web Hosting.
When you are done, you will receive an e-mail within the next few days, telling you to approve the transfer. Approve the transfer, and you’re all set.

A common error that users are experiencing when publishing from iWeb is the error communication with the FTP server. Typically, this error stems from a file on your site having an incorrect file name. This is a bug in iWeb that causes the error to appear and the site to not fully publish. This tutorial below will address this issue, and show you an alternative for publishing the entire site.
Video Transcript
If you publish your site from iWeb, and receive an error message that says “There was an error communicating with the FTP server. Try again later, or check with your service provider”, you most likely have a file on your site that does not contain a proper file name, and is giving iWeb a hard time with publishing. This is a bug in iWeb, and because of this, you will not be able to publish your site through iWeb and many other FTP clients.
Unfortunately, we are not told which file or files are causing this, so locating the issue to remove it can be difficult.
Luckily, iWeb SEO Tool is able to handle this issue and can publish the site as is. I will show this by publishing this exact same website that gave me this error.
First, I will publish the site to a local folder.
Now I will launch iWeb SEO Tool, and load the folder that I just published from iWeb.
Next, I will click on the Publish button and enter my FTP details. I keep my FTP details bookmarked in iWeb SEO Tool, so all I need to do is click on the FTP account and all my information will appear. You can do this also by first filling out your FTP information and then clicking this plus sign down here.
So now I will click on the Upload button and publish my site. I will fast forward through the publish so that you can see at the end, my site has been published successfully, and I received no error message like I received in iWeb.
I just want to remind everyone that iWeb SEO Tool is free for any RAGE Web Hosting user who is signed up for at least one year, so if you are looking to use iWeb SEO Tool to help publish your site, I highly encourage taking advantage of the free iWeb SEO Tool promotion as well.
As MobileMe is being discontinued in less than 2 weeks, many users are discovering that publishing their website to an FTP server sometimes produces cryptic errors that prevent your website from being published.
This is actually a bug in iWeb, and in most FTP publishing tools. Fortunately we have fixed this publishing bug and included it in our newest release of iWeb SEO Tool.
Now you can make sure your website lives on once MobileMe goes away on June 30th.
Plus, iWeb SEO Tool is free for users who have signed up to our iWeb Web Hosting for a year or more. Make sure your iWeb sites work perfectly with our iWeb Web Hosting and iWeb SEO Tool.
We have just released an update to WebCrusher – our utility that optimizes website’s so that they load faster in your web browser. The following updates and fixes have been added to this latest release:
[NEW] Improved Javascript optimizations
[NEW] Faster website optimizations
[FIX] Fixed problem with publishing websites to an FTP server
[FIX] Fixed certain optimizations with iWeb sites on Internet Explorer for Windows
The update is free for all current owners of WebCrusher. You can download a copy from our website or from the Mac App Store.
As users continue to migrate from MobileMe to iCloud, there is still the question of what services will be lost.
As we can see from this image which comes from Apple’s MobileMe transition page, the three items that are not available in iCloud are iWeb publishing, Galleries, and iDisk.
By utilizing RAGE Web Hosting, you can actually continue with these three features. Let’s discuss each of these features, and how you can continue to utilize them.
A common mistake made by many iWeb users is thinking that because MobileMe is being discontinued, it means they can no longer use iWeb. This couldn’t be further from the truth. You will still be able to use iWeb to build your website for the foreseeable future. As a matter of fact, it is recommended that you continue to do so. There is no reason right now for there to be any panic about not being able to use iWeb.
So what do you need to do in order to continue using iWeb? Well, since MobileMe took care of your publishing before, all you need to do now is find a new place to publish your website to. What this entails is signing up for hosting with a web host such as RAGE Web Hosting.
After you have signed up for your account, all you need to do is copy and paste your FTP login details. So instead of publishing to MobileMe from iWeb, you will simply publish to FTP instead, and the information you will use to publish to FTP will be given to you in an email that you will be able to just copy and paste. This only needs to be done once. After the first time, you will be able to click the Publish button like you normally would when updating your site on a frequent basis.
MobileMe users who use the gallery feature can still have galleries by following these steps:
First, use iPhoto to create a photo album. When the album is complete, it will show up in the media section of iWeb. Then create an albums page, and simply drag and drop the photo album from the media section over to the albums page in iWeb.
When you sign up for web hosting, you are also given web space to store files of your choice. In order to do this, you can use a free FTP client such as CyberDuck which will allow you to easily drag and drop items from your hard drive onto your server in the cloud.
Another important thing to note is that MobileMe users who were using the password protection feature for their site’s will no longer have this option once MobileMe is discontinued. As a RAGE Web Hosting user, you will be able to password protect your iWeb website by following the easy steps in this tutorial.
To summarize, iWeb users can continue using iWeb as they did in the past. Sign up for RAGE Web Hosting today and let us help you with the transfer from MobileMe to our hosting.
