1. Are there any site tasks I would need to underteake IF I upgraded from the Silver to Gold plan, or is it simply an accounting task?
2. Does FutureQuest handle domain name reservations? If not, where's the best place go?
3. Here's where I'm confused. My domain, pb5th.com, includes my class site. A sub folder includes a site that is attempting to expose truths about a nationwide school restructuring plan. Since my school uses that plan, I'm in much hotwater for keeping the expose site on pb5th.com. I can't afford two accounts, though. If I got a top level domain name for the reading program expose site, could I in effect resell it to myself and somehow keep it on the pb5th.com account? I hope I'm clear about this, but it's hard to be clear when one doesn't know what he's talking about!
Thanks for any help.

1. Just an accounting thing, they bill ya, and you pay the difference, based on proration, should you have prepaid the year.

2. They offer domain parking, a one time set up fee, http://www.FutureQuest.net/Packages.php

3. If you are a reseller, sure, you can resell to yourself.

Thanks, Hearts. I've started the domain parking thing and am playing it by ear from here.

What I think you are looking for on #3 there is an internal redirection. This is where domain2.com points to pb5th.com/domain2. This would be transparent to the visitor. This is offered - just check out the packages page that Hearts suggested http://www.aota.net/ubb/smile.gif

Thanks, Justin. Saw it. Let's see if I got this right. I'm waiting for the activation letter from you guys for the new domain alt-sfa (triggered by ordering domain parking). One I get it, I sign up for an Internally Redirected Domain. So, did I blow $25 bucks by asking for domain parking?????
