[cPanel email to Gmail]

I have a Gmail account and want to create an email in my cpanel.

So, how do I set it up so that once my email account is setup in Cpanel, then it will link to my Gmail account.

I want it so that if they send an email to '[email protected]' it will go to '[email protected]' and then if I respond/reply back in Gmail, it will show up as '[email protected]' instead of '[email protected]'?

[MySQL remotely?]

I don't understand this part

"First is to use the IP address your site is hosted on. This can be found by logging into cPanel. "

Where's the IP address?

So, for host, I can use avenger.hawkhost.com or my host IP address (where is it?)...and connect using the username/password I created, right?

[MySQL remotely?]

I want to connect to MySQL remotely. What host do I use?

Locally and on the server, I can use 'localhost' but let's say I want to test locally and connect remotely, what host do I use?

mysql.hawkhost.com and then connect using my username/password? Do I need to specify a port?

Thanks.

[Creating a virtual submdomain and redirection?]

Thanks Tony "Hawk" Baird! The web skating man!

[Creating a virtual submdomain and redirection?]

Didn't work.

I went to cpanel > Subdomains.

Let's say my main domain is maindomain.com

I see that there's

domaina.maindomain.com

So, for the subdomain input text, I put * and the document root is public_html/

domaina.com will contain the .htaccess of my script.

I tested http://testing.domaina.com but got a page not found error.

[Creating a virtual submdomain and redirection?]

Let's say I have two domains.

http://domainA.com and http://domainB.com

domainA is merely use as a 301 redirect to domainB. So, I want to use domainA to create virtual subdomains -- is this possible?

For example, http://testing.domaina.com would redirect to http://domainb.com/blog/testing

I used the code below (as a hypothetical example), but it didn't work.

I tested http://testing.domaina.com but it gives me an error (page not found).

RewriteCond {HTTP_HOST} !^domaina.com$

RewriteCond {HTTP_HOST} ^([a-zA-Z]+).domainb.com$

RewriteRule ^.*$ http://domainb.com/blog/%1

The other way is to manually create a subdomain on domaina.com each time by logging into Cpanel, but I don't want to do that each time for hundreds of subdomains.

[Becoming an affiliate?]

I want to become an affiliate to promote the Shared Hosting package, and wondering how do I sign up and what are the commission? Any affiliate tools like banners? I've seen tons of webmasters with a hostgator affiliate banner, but I would like to promote Hawkhost to see how it converts.

[Site for SERP dropped due to spam -- will it affects others?]

Ok, I have several domains

maindomain.com and then domain2.com, domain3.com (or pretty much domain2.maindomain.com, domain3.maindomain.com)

Now, let's say domain2.com gets boosted out of Google SERP due to spammy linkbuilding (dropping a to a very low rank in google results), which it affect my maindomain.com or other domains hosted?

[Other domains on my main domains - and PageRank]

Ok, so basically the unlimited domain hosting under one account is pretty much subdomains that point to my main domain.com on my host.

Like domain1.com would be my main, and then newdomain2.com would be a subdomain of newdomain2.domain1.com (which points to newdomain2.com).

How does this affects PageRage?

Say, domain1.com all of a sudden increase its page rank to PR 4, but newdomain2.com would not be affected right? So, if newdomain2.com drops a pagerank, it would not affect my main domain right?

Also, if I have high page ranks for both of my main domain and all my other domains (subdomains) and decided to switch to a new webhost, would it affect my pagerank as it will get new IP addresses?

[Different IP address for each domains]

Hello,

I am on the least expensive shared hosting plan, and have multiple domains hosted on there (pretty just subdomains that point to the parent domain). Now, how much extra or what do I have to do to issue different IP address for each of my domains? Kind of like how in Seohosting, you can different IP for each. That way, if Google slaps my my domain, it won't effect domains hosted on it.
