as you said, web hosting is this simple. you just pay the monthly subscription fee. and they will give u a username and pswd for web page or files upload. they should provide an easy to use web mangement interface .



but domain name is different. you have to buy/register your domain name by yourself, otherwise, your web hosting company will be the owner of your domain name. it is very important to be a owner of its domain name.try http://www.tnet.com.cn.



after you have register and pay for your domain name , then you may carry your domain name to the web hosting company for setting up the rest of your portal.



notes : you need to put the dns server name / ip into your domain name registrant record.
